Tiniyak ni Philippine National Police (PNP) chief, Gen. Dionardo Carlos na masisibak sa serbisyo ang walong pulis ng Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) matapos maaresto sa reklamo ng pitong Chinese at isang Pinay na nilooban ng mga ito sa Angeles City, Pampanga nitong Miyerkules ng madaling araw.
Idinahilan ni Carlos, hindi nila pinalalampas ang anumang iligal na gawain sa kanilang hanay kaya dapat na managot ang mga ito.
Kinilala naman ni CIDG director Maj. Gen. Albert Ignatius Ferro ang walo na sina Maj. Ferdinand Mendoza, Staff Sergeants Mark Anthony Reyes Iral at Sanny Ric Alicante; Corporals Richmond Francia, John Gervic Fajardo, at Kenneth Rheiner Ferrer Delfin; at Patrolmen Leonardo Veloso Mangales at Hermogines Rosario Jr., pawang nakatalaga sa Anti-Organized Crime Unit (AOCU) ng CIDG.
Nahaharap na ang mga ito sa kasong robbery in band, extortion, at illegal detention, bukod pa ang kasong administratibo.

“(The CIDG) will not tolerate misdeeds of its uniformed personnel. This is a semblance of what we call ICU -- inept, corrupt and undisciplined police personnel. We cannot allow this incident to tarnish the good performance, credibility established by the CIDG,” pagbibigay-diin ni Ferro nang dumalo sa isang pulong balitaan sa Camp Crame nitong Miyerkules, Enero 26.
