"I have no idea on that. There was none," Dela Rosa said, referring to Garma's allegation that policemen were rewarded with as much as P1 million per kill under the Davao template for the nationwide war on drugs.
Garma, a former general manager of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), made the accusation during last Friday's hearing of the quad committee of the House of Representatives.
Dela Rosa was the first chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP) under the administration of former president Rodrigo Duterte.
"I don't know what Garma is saying about a 'Davao model.' I am not close to her. I only know her as close to former president Duterte. I do not know that Davao model that they are inventing," he said in an interview with dwIZ.
He said his only "brainchild" when he was PNP chief was "Oplan Tokhang," wherein police would knock on the doors of suspected drug offenders and plead for them to give up drugs.
Dela Rosa and Duterte are under investigation by the International Criminal Court for alleged crimes against humanity in the conduct of the drug war that killed thousands of mostly poor drug users and street pushers.
Human rights groups had criticized Oplan Tokhang, saying it was a scheme used by policemen to collect names of drug users or pushers or even activists who were targetted by vigilantes.
Dela Rosa said the only reward money he knew was for the arrest of high-profile and "most wanted" criminals.
"My name was not included in Garma's affidavit. I am totally innocent of that. But honestly speaking, if you are a policeman, you do not need a reward money to do your job," Dela Rosa said.
The senator was not mentioned in Garma's affidavit, but his name was in a matrix she prepared and presented before the quad committee.

HEIDELBERG, GermanyâThey say history is not just something we read or study; it is something we walk through. All our movements and moments become, in a sense, historic (with the magnitude of their historicity being relative, of course). History inhabits the air of citiesâmost especially old, grizzled ones such as Heidelberg in Germany with the hum and thrum of its cobblestones, where we recently echoed the footfalls not only of countless German figures who have shaped history but also of one Dr. Jose Rizal.
