More than 100 senior police officials have so far been vetted by the five-man advisory group tasked to review the records of over 900 full colonels and generals who submitted their courtesy resignations in a bid to rid the ranks of illegal drug ties.
Philippine National Police Public Information Office chief PCol Redrico Maranan, on Friday said 118 have already been"processed," and the panel has agreed to conduct meetings twice a week to screen the remaining police officials.

This was panel's second formal meeting, where it also finalized and adapted the guidelines and procedures for its review.
PNP chief Gen. Rodolfo Azurin Jr., retired police general and Baguio City Mayor Benjamin Magalong, Office of the Presidential Adviser on Military Affairs Undersecretary Isagani Nerez, former Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro, and retired Court of Appeals Justice Melchor Sadang form part of the advisory group.After the advisory group's evaluation, the National Police Commission will conduct another round of verification before submitting its recommendations to the president.
