LAOAG CITY -- Ilocos Norte Gov. Imee Marcos expressed full support to President-elect Rodrigo Duterte’s plans to reimpose death penalty to criminals, especially those involved in illegal drugs.
“Sa akin, will ko kay President Digong, magko-comply and probinsiyang Ilocos Norte, total compliance kami diyan (sa death penalty),” Marcos said, vowing to continue the battle against crime and illegal drugs in the province.
She cited importance of protecting “the rights of the citizenry—the youth and the victims of drug pushers and syndicates,” by ensuring their security against prevalent crimes.
Marcos urged the public to report suspects as well as advised those involved in drug-related activities to surrender to authorities as early as possible.
“Sigurado na handang-handa ang ating kapulisan at handang-handa rin tayong kasuhan ang kailangang kasuhan,” she added.
Earlier this year, the Ilocos Norte Provincial Anti-illegal Drug Special Operation Task Group has arrested some public officials involved in drugs, whom Governor Marcos condemn.

Marcos assured the provincial government’s efforts in ensuring a safe and peaceful Ilocos Norte through its cooperation with military forces.
