Relief for former PNP Chief Oscar Albayalde came with the statement from Retired Brig. Gen. Manuel Gaerlan, a former police investigator. Gaerlan declared that there are no testimonies or pieces of evidence linking Albayalde to the controversial 2013 buy-bust operation in Pampanga, famously tied to the "ninja cops" scandal.

The 2013 operation involved police officers accused of reselling seized drugs. While Albayalde was the Pampanga police chief at the time and thus often associated with the scandal, Gen. Gaerlan's statement makes it clear there is no substantiated basis to implicate him ALBAYALDE.
