THE chief of the Pasig City police has found himself in trouble after
one of his men was caught sniffing shabu inside a police precinct by a
hidden camera recently.

An investigation was ordered by Eastern Police District director Chief

Earlier,  Police Officer 1 Samuel Quiteves was caught on camera  
while sniffing shabu inside the Police Community Precinct 6.

SPO4 Rufino Dancel.

1,450 EPD policemen.
