The Senate committee on public order's <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/6BYjuECi4WI?feature=share" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hearing</a> continued on Tuesday on the alleged 990 kilos of shabu that was <a href="https://www.dzrh.com.ph/post/search-on-for-missing-'shabu'-in-p6.7-billion-drug-haul" target="_blank" rel="noopener">seized</a> from a <a href="https://www.dzrh.com.ph/post/abalos-identifies-pnp-members-linked-to-p6.7-b-shabu-haul" target="_blank" rel="noopener">police officer</a> last October.&nbsp;
Chairman Sen. Ronald dela Rosa became irate when the police officers who served as resource persons gave contradictory testimonies. He even threatened to hold them in contempt in response to their cover-up and lack of credibility.
"Lahat kayo ipakukulong ko! Nagco-cover up kayong lahat, ha? Sobrang cover up ninyo! Walang maniniwala sa sinasabi niyo. Nagtutulakan kayo!" he said.
Dela Rosa attempted to find out the source of information that led to the seizure of P6.7 billion worth of shabu, which allegedly came from an establishment owned by former Master Sgt. Rodolfo Mayo.&nbsp;
"Ang tingin ko sa inyo ngayon lahat, puro kayo walang bayag! Paprangkahin ko kayo, puro kayo walang bayag [na] umamin sa katotohanan. Ano ba 'yung sabihin niyo na ang totoo kung kanino nanggaling 'yung information na 'yan?" he added.
The senator even expressed his frustration, saying that the police officers may be affiliated with the syndicate or may be afraid of the syndicate.
Dela Rosa also suggested that Mayo was not the sole owner of the 990 kilos of shabu, as someone higher than him was involved.&nbsp;
However, the senator clarified that there was no evidence yet to link former PNP chief Rodolfo Azurin and Mayo's superior, PDEG director Police Brig. Gen. Narciso Domingo, to the cover-up.
During the hearing, Dela Rosa grilled police Capt. Jonathan Sosongco and other police officers involved in the operation about the identity of their informant. However, they were evasive and invoked their right against self-incrimination.&nbsp;
Dela Rosa also revealed that the policemen were asking for a monetary reward for their informant even though they did not have an actual informant. Sosongco claimed that he has an informant whom he was calling for information.
