Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief PDG. Ronald Dela Rosa urges the customers of online store, Pinoy Pistol Forum to surrender the gun parts that they have purchased.
This, following the exposè of the store’s owner, Wilford Palma, who was arrested for gun smuggling in Bacalod.
“A customer ordered some lower end parts which will be allegedly used in Pres. Duterte’s assassination,” Palma said.
According to PNP Chief Dela Rosa, a regular customer of Palma and co-dealer Bryan Ta-ala used to order parts of M-16 rifles which will be allegedly used to assassinate President Rodrigo Duterte.
The customer also used to order 100 upper receiver parts, 40 barrels, and 30 riffle bolts.
“Most likely, he is not the gun-for-hire, maybe he was just ordered by the syndicate to purchase the firearms for that purpose,” Dela Rosa said.
Because of this, the PNP-Criminal Investigation and Detection Group will immediately launch an investigation.
The Malacañang, on the other hand, remains clueless as to who or what group is behind the assassination plot against the president.
Around 4.5 million pesos of gun parts and accessories were recovered by the CIDG operatives in Bacolod from Palma and Ta-ala with the help of the information coming from the U.S. Homeland Security.
The suspects will face charges of violating Republic Act 10591 or the Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Regulation Act. — Lea Ylagan | UNTV News & Rescue
