KINUMPIRMA ng Philippine National Police Drug Enforcement Group (PNP DEG) may ilang pulitiko na sangkot sa operasyon ng iligal na droga, at posibleng paggamit ng drug money para sa kanilang pagtakbo sa darating na National at Local Election sa sunod na taon.
Ayon kay Brigadier General Eleazar Matta, director ng PNP DEG, may natatangap silang mga report na mayroon mga local government official ang nasasangkot sa operasyon ng iligal na droga bilang paghahanda sa election sa May 2025.
“Significant number of report already received by our office that money coming from illegal drugs will be used in the elections. In fact we have report in some municipalities in our provinces involved in distribution of illegal and we have yet to develop a case buildup against them and be arrest,” ani ni Matta.
Sinabi ni Matta na kasalukuyang na nilang bina-validate ang mga report, at ipinabatid na nila ito sa intelligence community upang ipabatid ang mga nasabing local govenement executive na sangkot sa illegal drugs.
“Right now we have summary of information for validation of other groups. We wrote already in the intelligence community in our report that those guys, those local government executives are involved in illegal drugs,” saad ni Matta.
Bagama’t tumanggi si Matta kung ilang local government unit ang sangkot sa operasyon ng iliga na droga, hindi nito inaalis na posibleng nangyayari rin ito sa mga region.
“We don’t have number pa pero talagang positive identification of our informant na si ganitong mayor sa ganitong lugar is consuming 3 kilos every 2 weeks that’s why twice a month she or he delivered shabu in his area or her area,” pahayag ni Matta.
Aniya, “hindi pa itong mga na-receive natin hindi pa ganung ka-alarming, rampant pero parang going back to the normal. Kaya we are here to address ngayon ‘yung ganung situation para nag-a-attempt palang puputulin na natin. Gagawan na natin ng extensive intensified reporting through are summary of information received para for other to validate and for other unit to conduct police operations.”
Isinaad ni Matta na itong bagong listahan ng mga pulitikong sangkot sa iligal na droga ay hindi ito kasama doon sa mga naunang inilabas o inihayag ni dating Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte.
“No. This listahan is newly discovered pero titingnan din natin ‘yun kung andun na sila sa former list kaya nag-extensive investigation kami ngayon and information gathering,” ani ni Matta.(Mark Obleada)
