“Para ma check sad nato atong mga kapulisan og unsa sila ka effective maka deliver sa atong services sa atoang community,” he added.
(This is so we can also check our policemen on how effective they are in delivering services to the community.)
Caballes pointed out that this is also their way of setting a good example to those in the lower units.
The drug test will be thoroughly processed by the crime laboratory.
Caballes said anyone who tests positive will be dealt with accordingly.
