Chief Justice Peralta guaranteed move to eradicate “narco judges”

Supreme Court (SC) Chief Justice Diosdado Peralta ensured that the judiciary branch of the government will be cleansed to eliminate judges involved in illegal drug trade. The establishment of a judicial integrity board will be one of the manifestations of this objective, which will assist the Office of the Court Administrator in ensuring the upright conduct of said adjudicators.

Meanwhile, the SC determines how to provide tighter security to huwes magistrates following the murders of a number of judges in the country.
