House Speaker Ferdinand Martin Romualdez is pushing for a one-strike policy against erring police officers after a recent incident where Chinese nationals accused policemen of robbery-extortion. | GabrielLaluINQ
“I am appealing to our PNP chief to apply the one-strike policy not only to those involved in these activities but to their superiors. If the erring policemen belong to a station or a group, the station or group commander should be covered by such policy as well on the basis of command responsibility,” he added.
“They have to weed out the bad eggs who are tainting the image of the police organization, which is not fair to those who are faithfully doing their job. They should make sure that only those who take their duties seriously and who are not involved in illegal activities remain in the service,” he said.
