An armed H125 Light Utility Helicopter of the Philippine National Police during the Philippine Fleet Defense Expo 2023. The Supreme Court overturned a ruling that cleared former Philippine National Police-Special Action Force chief Leocadio Santiago, Jr. over the purchase of second-hand helicopters that were passed off as brand new in 2009.
Instead, an earlier OMB resolution that found Santiago guilty of serious dishonesty and conduct prejudicial to the best interest of the service was reinstated, where he was imposed the penalty of dismissal. The Manila Aerospace Products and Trading delivered two standard helicopters, but it was later found that they were not brand new, and the warranties for their engines had long expired. The SC was convinced of Santiago’s liability in this development.
