CAUAYAN CITY– President Rodrigo Duterte said he will dismiss the three cadets of the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA) who forced two male plebes—who allegedly did not heed orders—to perform oral sex.
“I will dismiss them. I have no place for people like them,” Duterte said during a post-disaster command conference at the Hotel Andrea in Isabela here on Thursday.
Duterte said he already read a report about the incident that transpired in the police academy in Silang, Cavite last month.
