Manila, Philippines - Philippine National Police Chief Dir. Gen. Ronald Dela Rosa did not believe the alibi of Melvin Boyet Odicta and his wife, Miriam, claiming that they are not involved in any illegal drugs activities.

The Odictas are considered as “untouchables” drug lords in Iloilo province and number one in the list of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Authority of drug personalities in the whole region.
The couple presented themselves to Interior and Local Government Secretary Mike Sueno and denied the accusations against them.

During his visit in Iloilo earlier today, Dela Rosa did not mention Odicta in his speech but it was clear that he was referring to the alleged drug lord.

Dela Rosa said that Odicta only pretended to surrender in Manila but no one from Iloilo believe that he is not involved in illegal drugs activities.

The PNP Chief’s message to the Odicta couple: “Tell that to the Marines.”

Dela Rosa added that (Odictas) their reign has come to an end, especially their paying off of lawyers, fiscals, judges and police; killing off cops who go against them.

Odicta is believed to be behind the attack of DYOK-Iloilo, including a police raid wherein Odicta was seen accompanying them to the station for over-criticizing them.
