The National Police Commission (Napolcom) on Tuesday debunked claims made by the Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption (VACC) that there were “reinstatements for sale” for policemen at the commission. Jimenez claimed that policemen who have been slapped with administrative cases were able to return to service because of the alleged “reinstatement for sale” scheme in the commission. Casuaro said Napolcom decisions dismissing a PNP member from the service are not final and executory. “They are appealable to the Secretary of the Department Interior and Local Government [DILG], Civil Service Commission, Court of Appeals and Supreme Court,” he added. He encouraged the public and media to come forward and provide any information regarding rotten eggs within the police force.
