The National Police Commission (Napolcom) accepted the recommendations of the five-man advisory group that reviewed the courtesy resignations of 955 senior Philippine National Police (PNP) officials, Interior Secretary Benhur Abalos said Monday.
“The advisory group recommended the following: No. 1, non-acceptance of the resignation of 917 officers. No. 2, further investigation of 33 other officers. No. 3, acceptance of the courtesy resignation, and filing of administrative and/or criminal cases against four; specifically, two generals and two colonels,” he told reporters in a media briefing.
“We've heard in the media, parang tinanggap niya. What we will do, is we will wait for the actual letter,” he added. “May nireklamong final sa kanila si Chief Azurin. At ngayon, itong reklamo na ito ay nandito na kayo sa Napolcom, i-precharge na namin. Matitignan na namin kung may weight o wala. Pagkatapos nito, tatanggapin ito ng Pangulo,” he said.
“For clarity, acceptance of resignation is without prejudice to any administrative cases against these officers and will not release them from any liability,” he added.
