A video circulating online purports to show Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte attending a wake for a mother and her son who were killed by a police officer in the northern Philippines in December 2020. The clip has been viewed more than a hundred thousand times on YouTube and shared in multiple Facebook and blog posts. The claim is false: the video contains a doctored photo of the wake that has been manipulated to include an image of Duterte. The president did not visit the wake, a spokesperson for his office told AFP on January 22, 2021.
The video was shared here on YouTube on December 25, 2020. It has been viewed more than 140,000 times.
