The PNP Crime Laboratory Director Chief Superintendent said that in that 20 cops who are positive in the drug test, six were from Visayas, nine came from Mindanao, and the remaining five came from Luzon.

As one report has said, the said drug testing was done on May 9 and 22, 238 policemen underwent the said testing.

Those who were positive on the drug testing are given 15 days to prove the results wrong if they are really not into taking illegal drugs.

Aranas said that urine testing was used in determining whether a cop uses illegal drugs or not and when the confirmatory test shows positive results still, it is already an indication of the truth behind the results.
