[PODCAST] KRIMINAL: The PNP and PDEA’s trust problem
A long-standing mistrust continues to divide the PNP and PDEA. Listen to this episode of KRIMINAL, Rappler's crime podcast.

For the first time in history, the Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) figured in a misencounter.

The shootout was fatal. Four people were killed, including 2 policemen, a PDEA agent, and a PDEA informant.

Officials suspect a lack in coordination led to the bloody exchange as both sides also believed they followed all procedures.

But how does coordination between the two agencies work?

In this episode of KRIMINAL, Rappler’s police reporter Rambo Talabong sits down with retired police general and Dangerous Drugs Board chairman Catalino Cuy to discuss the relationship of the two agencies.

While the two work hand in hand to fight drugs, long-standing mistrust continues to divide them.
