00:00The Justice Department filed a complaint against the 30 police officers
00:05who were involved in almost 7 billion pesos of illegal drugs in 2022.
00:13They were charged with the Bybass Operation and arresting their new member.
00:20And there are drugs that are not illegal anymore.
00:24Iman Mayrina was arrested.
00:30Because of the CCTV footage of October 8, 2022 in Tondo, Manila,
00:35the 30 police officers are now facing a complaint.
00:38Police Master Sgt. Rodolfo Mayon of PNP Drug Enforcement Group or PDEG saw this
00:43while he was putting a paper bag in his car.
00:46It contained 2 kilos of shabu.
00:49Then he was arrested by his brothers in PDEG.
00:52But he was also seen going to and from the office several times.
00:56Several bags of shabu were taken out of his car.
00:59They were divided and put in separate cars.
01:03The anti-drug operation was not reported and not documented.
01:08Instead, a Bybass Operation was declared before 5 p.m.
01:12against an employee of the office who is not Mayon.
01:15Mayon was released and arrested by PDEG in a hot pursuit operation the next day.
01:21990 kilos of shabu, worth almost 7 billion pesos, was recovered from the anti-drug operation.
01:28400 kilos of shabu were not found.
01:31Where did they go?
01:33The so-called Bybass Operation on October 8
01:35and the so-called arrest of Master Sgt. Rodolfo Mayon on October 9
01:39is part of the basis of the violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of the police.
01:45It is also known that this kind of police brutality is commonplace.
01:48It seems that it became a standard procedure of several elements of the PNP to have drug hauls.
01:57If they report a few, many will be arrested.
02:01That's why I said it's a grand conspiracy of a criminal enterprise.
02:06Twenty-two police officers are still active in the service.
02:10He has already given instructions to his staff to under restrictive custody
02:16of the 22 active PNP personnel and disarmament pending the possible issuance of warrants of arrest.
02:27Five have already retired, two have been dismissed, and one has been arrested.
02:31They are still not included in the criminal case filed by the DOJ.
02:35Sirin Lusot is known as PNP Chief Rodolfo Azurin
02:38because he is accused by officials of being involved in the operation.
02:42We are still trying to get him to speak, but he has already denied the allegation of cover-up.
02:48It is our theory, but not proven, that because of the reward system
02:54instituted by the PNP when 2016 started,
03:01drug hauls are not reported.
03:04Because there is a reward, they will get money and put it there.
03:11There is a reward, there is an accomplishment.
03:13That's why there was a warehouse, arrest, reward, and promotion.
03:19That's how the system was set up.
03:21But even now, the PNP is insisting that there was no such action by the police before or now.
03:27This is not institutionalized in the organization.
03:30No chief PNP, regardless of the present administration or the previous administration,
03:36will allow such illegal schemes.
03:39Ninja cops were not involved in the anti-drug operations.
03:45Will they raid or carry out buy-busts?
03:48Will the drug dealers only declare a small portion and set it aside to sell to others?
03:54Many have asked BAC and were charged because of this,
03:57that the PNP is ready to do anything to anyone who will do irregularities.
