ISANG enlisted personnel ng Philippine Coast Guard ang iniimbestigahan dahil sa pagkakasangkot umano sa investment scam.

Ito ang inihayag ni Philippine Coast Guard spokesperson, Commodore Armand Balilo kaugnay sa isang kasapi ng Coast Guard Task Force Bayanihan Returning Overseas Filipinos (BROF).

Ayon kay Comm. Balilo, ipinag-utos ni PCG Commandant Admiral George Ursabia na bilisan ang proseso ng isinasagawang imbestigasyon upang mapanagot ang sangkot nilang tauhan.

Una rito, sinibak sa puwesto ang nasabing enlisted personnel habang gumugulong ang imbestigasyon laban dito makaraang lumutang ang anim na complainant at magsisilbing katibayan sa kaso ang kanilang mga testimonya.

“We call on our fellow Coast Guard officers and personnel to exercise prudence and integrity in all of their actions. Admiral Ursabia remains firm on his campaign to uphold the moral standards of Coast Guard men and women by modeling the ideals of genuine PCG: patriotism, compassion, and fear of God. While we perform necessary legal measures to counter unlawful activities within the organization, we also need the cooperation of our people to shun pyramiding schemes and other illegal ventures, not only to protect themselves, but more importantly, to preserve the public image of the humanitarian armed service they are part of,” panawagan pa ni Balilo.
