Marie Cardema, the vice-chair of the House National Defense and Security Committee, said Carlos' usage of the PNP chopper is part of his privileges as the country's top cop. "General Dionardo Carlos is the PNP Chief 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. He was stranded in Balesin Island and wanted to report for duty in Camp Crame on a Monday morning. Under the rules & regulations of the PNP, he is entitled to the use of the PNP helicopter. Nothing irregular about it," Cardema said.
