President Duterte offers 2-million bounty for ninja policemen...

Taking the drug problem as a national security threat, President Duterte has offered a P2-million bounty for the arrest of “ninja” policemen or those coddling drug syndicates in the country.

In a speech commemorating National Heroes Day in the country, the President declared that dirty law enforcers will be first on his target list as he vowed to be “harsh” and relentless in the war on illegal drugs.

“I might be inclined to place a reward on their head — the members of the ninja or members of the police who are then protecting the drug syndicates in this country,” the President said during the memorial for fallen heroes at the Libingan ng mga Bayani in Taguig City.

“I’m placing per head P2 million and you might want to, ipagbili na ninyo ang mga kaibigan ninyo,” he added.

The President pledged to “finish” the drug problem within his term, admitting it has become a threat to national security. He bewailed that the “drug crisis” has infected “every nook and corner of this country involving generals, mayors, governors, barangay captains and so many ninjas” or policemen “who are into it.” Source...
