He said that Garbo was “protector of drug syndicates.”

The other four officials who were involved in illegal drugs are Gen. Vicente Loot, Gen. Bernardo Diaz of Region 11, Joel Pagdilao of the National Capital Region Police Office and Edgardo Tinio of Quezon City Police District.

Loot and Garbo were already retired while other three are still active on duty.

President Duterte said that these police generals were protector of drug lords.

“I will talk to them but for now I ordered them relieved,” said Duterte.

Duterte said that he had ordered the five generals’ relief and told them to report to the director general of the PNP.

“I expect the police commission to do their thing,” Duterte said, referring to Napolcom.

The President said he wanted a thorough investigation saying, “don’t give me a zarzuela.” and he said he wanted nothing less than the “truth”.
