Anti-narcotics operatives of the Philippine National Police seized more than P70 million worth of illegal drugs and arrested over 2,000 people in the first two weeks of this year, national police chief Gen. Rodolfo Azurin, Jr. disclosed on Monday, Jan. 16.
“With the call of our Secretary for courtesy resignation, the question is if it affects the morale of our men. It doesn’t show because in 14 days, we were able to arrest more than 2,000 involved in illegal drug activities,” said Azurin.Azurin also expressed confidence that more people will trust the PNP in the campaign against illegal drugs once the processing of courtesy resignation is done.
“In the near future, we expect it will be a better performance for the PNP. Once the officers are cleared , they will have moral ascendancy in this campaign and I believe that they themselves will not allow that they would be dragged again into this controversy,” said Azurin.
