Sa is a vocal opponent of dutertes war of drugs, a senator willing to take personal risk to criticize his use of the Philippine National police, known as the pnp.

This is the hub reporter john neery, editor in chief of qu countrys largest newspaper site, says he sees dangerous. The president has been articulate, saying if you do your job, i will support you. Some of the policemen receive this as a signal, we can do what we want. We follow the rule of law. Reporter the police vehemently deny being used as executioners.

There are cases of what they call now the cardboard justice. But these are cases that are still under investigation. Reporter so we set out to find one of these shadowy figures who are willing to commit murder.

Not surprisingly, many say they are in fear for their lives. Whats your recommendation to translator my advice to them, if theyre still into it, stop it.

Reporter the police rep refuses to go further. We are w details of that investigation. Reporter but federal investigators would later determine that the imprisoned mayor was assassinated by the police.
