2 PNP officials tagged in P6.7 billion shabu cover-upMANILA, Philippines — Two lieutenant colonels have “a lot of explaining to do” after they were tagged by relieved Philippine National Police Drug Enforcement Group (PDEG) chief Brig. Gen. Narciso Domingo as among the main players in the alleged cover-up surrounding the seizure of 990 kilos of methamphetamine hydrochloride or shabu. “Ibañez and Gonzales have a lot of explaining to do,” Dela Rosa later said of the two in a press briefing after the hearing. Sy is allegedly a “bodegero” of a drug lord detained at the Sablayan prison and penal farm in Occidental Mindoro, Dela Rosa said. Sy may be a “source of shabu” in Mayo’s drug dealings, Dela Rosa added.
