00:00The family of another drug war victim was called to President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

00:05to help them give justice to the murder of his son.

00:09Details in the national news of Harley Valbuena of PTV Manila.

00:15After the arrest of the International Criminal Court,

00:17the former President Rodrigo Duterte,

00:20because of the case of Crimes Against Humanity,

00:22it is possible that the police in the Philippines

00:26became a part of the War on Drugs.

00:28According to ICC Assistant to Counsel, Attorney Cristina Conti,

00:33who is also a lawyer for victims of extrajudicial killings,

00:38she recommends filing a case against the police.

00:42I will study, but yes, I would recommend filing charges.

00:47As of tomorrow, domestic courts will entertain charges

00:55against the victim or the chief of police.

01:00According to Conti,

01:02the ICC wants to prosecute the highest-ranking official

01:06even if it cannot answer the justice system of the country,

01:11who will provide ways to answer the local courts

01:15for his crimes.

01:17For another lawyer of EJK Victims,

01:20Attorney Nery Colmenares,

01:22aside from the usual police,

01:24the police generals who carried out the War on Drugs

01:28should also be prosecuted.

01:31According to Colmenares,

01:32they will not be able to file a case during Duterte's time

01:36because the police were indoctrinating the victims.

01:47There was a child, for example, who was shot in the chest and was hit,

01:54but the death certificate came out as bronchopneumonia.

01:57So how can you file a case against the police?

02:00The court will say,

02:02your child was not killed.

02:04There is still fear felt by the bereaved families,

02:08especially since some of the police in EJK are still active in the service.

02:13According to Dalia Cuartero,

02:16the mother of the drug war victim, Jesus Cuartero,

02:20they tried to file a lawsuit with the Commission on Human Rights,

02:25but it was not successful because no one wanted to investigate.

02:29We would like to call on Mr. President

02:35to give us a chance to answer the police,

02:43not only to Mr. Duterte,

02:46but also to Mr. Bato de la Rosa,

02:48the general who was one of the perpetrators of the drug war.

02:53Aside from Duterte,

02:54the former PNP chiefs, Ronald Bato de la Rosa and Oscar Albayalde,

02:58were also involved in the ICC cases.

03:04Some of the convicts in the extrajudicial killings

03:07are the three police officers who were killed by Kian de los Santos.
