(Eagle News)– Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Director General Ronald dela Rosa in his speech on Friday (Spet. 2) ordered his men not to receive money from illegal gambling as these also came from illegal drug operations.
“Ulit-ulitin ko ito, I have to remind you always, please huwag kayong pumatong sa droga, please huwag kayong pumatong sa anumang iligal na gawain. Hindi niyo alam yung tinatanggap ninyo ngayong pera galing sa illegal gambling, halo na diyan ang pera galing sa illegal drugs,” Dela Rosa said as he warned policemen.
“Kaya maraming nagkaloko-loko ang buhay na pulis, akala nila pera iyon sa illegal gambling, hindi n’yo alam na yung infrastructure na ginagamit sa illegal gambling, yun din ang infrastructure o network sa illegal drugs,” he added.
Earlier in August, Dela Rosa admitted that there are illegal gambling lords who offered him payoffs.
Dela Rosa also revealed that illegal gambling operations would be their next target after the campaign against illegal drugs.
