A lawmaker from Mindanao on Tuesday assailed the reported unauthorized assignment and deployment of police officers as bodyguards of Chinese POGO officials and workers.
Barbers made the statement in reaction to a media report that two members of the Philippine National Police Special Action Force assigned in Zamboanga were arrested by local police from Muntinlupa City after both had a major altercation inside the house of one POGO official. Barbers said the report also indicated that the Battalion Commander of the two PNP-SAF officers, who approved his men’s deployment as POGO bodyguards, is receiving a monthly emolument of P40,000 each for their services while half of the amount, P20,000 each, goes to their superior.
The Surigao del Norte lawmaker urged PNP chief Gen. Rommel Franciso Marbil to investigate the alleged serious shenanigans being committed by some of his subordinate officers, who are moonlighting as personal bodyguards of POGO workers and officers.
