An exclusive report by GMA News' Emil Sumangil on 24 Oras showed the assault team of the Pangasinan Police entering an alley toward the house of SPO1 Julius Calinang Rosales.
Rosales, desk officer at the Natividad Municipal Police Station in Pangasinan, was arrested and his property searched, the report said.
Pangasinan Police director Sr. Supt. Ronald Oliver Lee said Rosales has been included in the province's watchlist for his alleged involvement in the illegal drug trade in the province.
"Matagal na siyang nasa listahan ng ating watchlist na protector ng illegal drugs. Nasa listahan din siya ng mga pinangalanan ng ating presidente," Lee said.
Rosales denied the accusations, saying it is normal for him to be linked to illegal drugs as he is a former member of the police's anti-illegal drugs unit, a unit he served for more than 10 years.
"Ang masasabi ko dito walang katotohanan ito. Dati ho ako sa intelligence din at anti-drugs. Masyadong ma-issue ito, mga inggit-inggit lang," Rosales said.
"Di ako involved dyan sa illegal drug trade, kita niyo naman yung pamumuhay ko," he added.
Rosales also claimed the caliber .45 firearm, M203 grenade, and several packets of shabu found in his home were planted by the police.
Meanwhile, Lee reminded his colleagues to cut their links to illegal drugs and surrender to the government.
"Sa mga kabaro natin na sangkot pa sa illegal drugs, tama na sana," Lee said. "Itigil na natin yung ating ginagawa, at yung mga alam nilang sila ay may derogatory reports kahit noon pa na may ginagawa ng kalokohan tungkol sa illegal drugs, mas maganda kung sila ay mag-surrender."
