TAKING THE lead from police Director-General Ronald M. dela Rosa, the head of the police force in Central Visayas has also called critics of the anti-drug campaign “ingrates” and vowed to continue with their program as the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) is preparing to investigate the recent killing of three brothers in a related police operation. Central Visayas Police Director Jose Mario M. Espino yesterday said the operation led by the Mandaue City Police Office-3 (MCPO-3) — wherein brothers Jerome, 28; Ruben, 25; and Vincent, 26 were killed — was legitimate. Police Chief Inspector Michelangelo Beltran, chief of MCPO-3, earlier said the three, who were “new players” in the illegal drug trade, fought the police and engaged them in a shoot-out, resulting to their deaths. — The Freeman
