The government never tolerates rape of drug suspects

YES, there were some reports of rape by policemen involved in the war on drugs — despite the blanket denial of the spokesman of the Philippine National Police — but these have been addressed and the culprits punished.

One drug related-rape took place in Sampaloc, Manila last year when a 15-year-old girl was raped by a rookie cop, who arrested both her parents for drug pushing. In the case of the rape of the 15-year-old girl, the suspect, Patrolman Valencia, justified his offense by claiming that raping female drug suspects was “normal” practice among policemen.Valencia was addressing General Eleazar when he said that.For the nth time, I’m calling on President Digong to appoint Eleazar as the next PNP chief.
