Y.O.U.’s General Dado Valeroso Offers Protection to Deguito and Others
Senatorial Candidate Dado Valeroso, a retired PNP General who heads the reformist Young Officers’
Union (Y.O.U.), yesterday said that the Y.O.U. is willing to provide 24/7 or 24-hours a day, everyday
protection to Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC) branch manager Maia Santos-Deguito and
resigned assistant manager Angela Torres and their respective families so that they can tell the whole
truth and nothing but the truth in the on-going investigations by the Senate and other government
agencies into the $81-million money laundering scheme which was recently exposed in the tri-media.
“The Young Officers’ Union is deeply disturbed by reports that the country is becoming, not only the
global illegal drugs capital, but also the money laundering capital of the world and unless we enable
people who can shed light about it to tell the truth by protecting them and their families, we will not be
able to extract evidence and prosecute all those involved,” Valeroso said.
“There are also reports reaching us that narco-politics and elaborate money laundering schemes are
again rearing their ugly heads to finance the campaign of some candidates and the only way to expose
who these candidates and their backers are, is to fully support those who may be willing to tell
everything they know but are precluded from doing so merely because of fear for their and their
families’ safety,” Valeroso added.
Meanwhile, more and more retired and active-duty officers and their families have expressed whole-
hearted willingness to vote for General Dado Valeroso of the Y.O.U. who is running and actively
campaigning for Senator all over the country.

General Dado Valeroso Nag-alok ng Proteksyon Kina Deguito At Iba Pa
Si Senatorial Candidate Dado Valeroso, isang retiradong Heneral ng PNP na Pangulo ng repormistang
Young Officers’ Union (Y.O.U.), ay nagsabi kahapon na ang Y.O.U. ay handang magbigay ng 24/7 o 24-
oras, araw-araw na proteksyon kina Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC) branch manager
Maia Santos-Deguito at sa nagbitiw na assistant manager Angela Torres at kanilang mga pamilya upang
masabi nila ang buong katotohan tungkol sa $81-million na money laundering na nabulgar kamakailan
ng tri-media.
“Ang Young Officers’ Union ay lubhang nababahala sa mga ulat na ang ating bansa ay hindi lamang
nagiging pandaigdigang kapital ng droga kundi pati na rin ng money laundering, at kung hindi natin
mabibigyan ng proteksyon ang mga taong pwedeng magsabi ng totoo tungkol dito, pati na rin ang
kanilang pamilya, ay hindi tayo makakakuha ng ebidensya at hindi natin mapapakulong ang mga
nagkasala,” ayon kay Valeroso.
“May mga ulat din na nakakarating sa amin na ang tinatawag na narco-politics at mga raket tungkol sa
money laundering ay muling naglilitawan upang mapondohan ang kampanya ng ilang mga tiwaling
kandidato at ang tanging paraan upang mabulgar kung sino-sino ang mga kandidatong ito at kanilang
mga taga-suporta ay bigyan ng todong tulong ang mga gusto sanang magsabi ng lahat ng katotohanan
ngunit natatakot lamang para sa kanilang seguridad at seguridad ng kanilang pamilya,” dagdag pa ni
Valeroso.
Samantala, parami pa ng parami ang mga retirado at nasa aktibong serbisyo na mga militar at pulis ang
nangangakong iboboto sa pagka-Senador si Heneral Dado Valeroso ng Y.O.U.
