Three hundred seventy three Western Mindanao Command (WMC)
uniformed and civilian personnel undergone mandatory drug testing Thursday.
This took place 6:00 a.m. at WMC headquarters at Camp
Basilio Navarro, Calarian, Zamboanga
City
It was carried out by the AFP Task Force "Moses,"
WMC spokesperson Major Filemon Tan said.
Of the 373 WMC personnel, two military and one civilian was
found positive for use of illegal drugs.
Tan said the three will undergo a confirmatory test at a
testing center duly accredited by the Department of Health.
The mandatory drug test is the WMC's show of support to
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte's ongoing illegal drugs campaign.
"Those found guilty will be discharged from the service
without ifs and buts. Our organization must be clean from drug abuse so that
our soldiers can carry out their tasks effectively," WMC head Lt. Gen.
Mayoralgo Dela Cruz said.
With drug abuse, soldiers will lose focus and in the end,
will be tempted to do illegal activities that will compromise operations and
the safety of his fellow soldiers, he added.
"Drug addicts have no place in the WMC," Dela Cruz
stressed.
