Officers documented in Pulong video choose to cease showing up for work duty
Named: Two Cops Axed for Moonlighting with Davao Rep Pulong Duterte
There's been some hot news brewing in the Davao Region, as two police officers got the boot for moonlighting as bodyguards for the city's First District Representative, Paolo "Pulong" Duterte. Here's the lowdown on this unauthorized escapade.
The Lightening Rods
Executive M/Sgt. Rexter Millano and S/Sgt. Leonard Pamat, the two officers in question, were assigned to the Marilog and Paquibato stations but allegedly took on the role of security escorts for the Davao representative, as reported by sources.
Catching the Heat
PNP Chief Gen. Rommel Marbil pulled no punches, ordering their dismissal for dishonesty, which carries a hefty penalty of being banned from any government post. Ouch! The officers' commanders are not off the hook, either, as they could face sanctions for allowing such moonlighting and for alleged report falsification.
The Implications
This case serves as a clarion call for the police force to adhere to protocols and avoid unauthorized activities. It's become clear that breaking the rules will lead to severe consequences. Even high-ranking characters can't escape accountability – from an altercation involving Rep. Duterte at a bar, a Department of Justice investigation is underway to determine if charges are in order.
