PNP spokesperson Brig. Gen. Bernard Banac stated that CIDG investigators will examine disbursement records, receipts, and other evidence to uncover alleged graft and corruption.
The PNP's Directorate for Investigation and Detective Management will monitor the investigation progress to ensure successful prosecution.
