A police officer who was involved in a drug operation in Pampanga in 2013 and an irregular operation in Antipolo City this year has been dismissed from the service.

Philippine National Police officer-in-charge Lt. Gen. Archie Francisco Gamboa said Lt. Joven de Guzman, one of the 13 police officers involved in the controversial drug operation that was investigated by the Senate, was the team leader of an irregular anti-drug bust in Antipolo this year.
