LEGAZPI CITY\u2014 For the failure to rid of illegal gambling operations in their respective areas, at least three town police chiefs in Bicol are facing removal from their posts after failing to meet the 15-day anti-illegal gambling deadline by the Philippine National Police (PNP) chief, Director General Ronald Dela Rosa.
\nThese town police chiefs are assigned in the provinces of Camarines Norte and Sorsogon, said Senior Inspector Maria Luisa Calubaquib PNPO Bicol spokesperson.
\nShe declined to name the town police chiefs as they are still waiting for the official relief order signed by Chief Supt. Antonio Gardiola, Bicol police director.
\nCalubaquib said investigation team sent to check on the status of the campaign in their towns showed these police officers failed to wipe out illegal gambling operations in their respective areas.
\nThe PNP chief gave regional police directors across the country a 15-day deadline to stop illegal gambling particularly the illegal numbers game \u201cjueteng.\u201d
\nPNP report indicated that for the period Aug. 1 to 15, various police units have arrested 1,511 persons involved in illegal gambling including 20 were gambling operators while close to P300,000 in bet money were confiscated.
\nOf the 620 anti-illegal gambling operations carried out by the PNP, Calubaquib said 70 were found involved in STL bookies while three in jueteng operations.
\nIn Albay, the Sangguniang Panlalawigan has passed a resolution last Aug. 2 recommending to the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) for the cancellation of the Agency agreement and the authority granted to Lucky V Prime Enterprise Corporation to operate the Small Town Lottery (STL) operation in Albay\u00a0for allegedly\u00a0failing to comply with the agreements stipulated in the STIL Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR).
\nAlbay Vice Governor Harold Imperia, in an interview, said that all the provisions under the IRR were violated by the Lucky V operator.
\nHe said jueteng still exists in the guise of STL as one cannot distinguish a \u201cbookies\u201d from a PCSO STL-bet collector who under the IRR should wear a prescribe identification card and vest and must\u00a0issue a receipt.
\nHe said the result of the daily draw is supposed to be open to public viewing through a CCTV network and from radio and TV stations operating in Albay.
\nImperial also expressed disappointment over the share that the PCSO remits following the two months STL operations.
\nThe provincial treasurer only received P18,000 from the PCSO Charity Fund, Imperial said
\nHe also added that under PCSO Presumptive Monthly Retail Receipt (PMRR) the operator should have collected P77 million in gross monthly draws.
\nOf this collection 55 percent goes to prizes, 30 percent to the Charity Fund and the rest goes to operations. (PNA)<\/p>\n
