JULY 13, 2017
Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) Chief Benjamin Delos Santos on
Thursday resigned from his post amid an alleged resurgence of
the drug trade at the New Bilibid Prisons (NBP).
Delos Santos said fresh allegations of a revival of the drug
trade at the penitentiary, a supposedly strictly guarded
facility, has made him “irrelevant.”
“My irrevocable resignation effective immediately was filed
through the Secretary of Justice. I will refrain from further
comments & take the vow of silence,” Delos Santos said in a
statement Thursday night.

Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre II appointed Delos
Santos, a retired police officer, to head the BuCor on
November 2016. He replaced retired police Chief Supt.
Rolando Asuncion, who was the officer-in-charge at the
bureau when President Rodrigo Duterte assumed the
presidency.
Recently, Aguirre bared the return of the drug trade at the
state penitentiary, citing the alleged collusion of inmates
and Philippine National Police Special Action Force (SAF)
troops.

JULY 13, 2017
Detained Sen. Leila de Lima has taken
her long-drawn word war with Justice
Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre to the Office of
the Ombudsman.
De Lima haled one her chief accusers to
the anti-graft body for his string of alleged
fake revelations, including narcotics and
destabilization charges against officials.

De Lima, once also a justice chief,
accused Aguirre of falsifying evidence in
linking her to the drug trade, tagging
opposition lawmakers in the ongoing Marawi
crisis based on unverified information, and
a list of other incidents where the official
allegedly publicized unsubstantiated
allegations against various personalities.

Criminal charges De Lima filed against
Aguirre include his alleged violations of Article
208 (Negligence in Prosecution and Toleration of
Criminal Offenses), Article 286 (Grave Coercion),
Article 172.2 (Use of Falsified Documents),
Article 184 (Offering False Testimony), and
Article 239 (Usurpation of Legislative Powers) of
the Revised Penal Code, and of the Anti- Graft
and Corrupt Practices Act.
