00:00The controversial raid of an alleged Philippine offshore gaming operator, Orpogo, in Malate,
00:06Manila, triggers the relief of Police Major General Sidney Hernia from his post as the
00:11Chief of the National Capital Region Police Office, or NCRPO.
00:15This follows a messy operation led by the NCRPO on October 29, where a hub in Century
00:20Peak Tower was raided on the power of search warrants.
00:24The company owners condemned the raid and filed complaints against NCRPO officials and
00:28personnel.
00:29Interior Secretary John Vic Ramulia confirms Hernia's relief and the appointment of Police
00:34Brigadier General Reynaldo Tamundong as acting NCRPO chief.
00:38The Malate operation also triggered a tiff between the NCRPO and the Presidential Anti-Organized
00:43Crime Commission, or PAOC, as initial reports from the raid attributed the operation to
00:48PAOC.
00:49Spokesman Winston Cascio reportedly said,
00:51Please do not associate PAOC with flawed operations.
