00:00The Senate investigation into the war on drugs of the Duterte administration was conducted by a politician.
00:05This is the statement of Senator Coco Pimentel, who is the head of the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee that conducts hearings.
00:12Salima Refrang has the first news.
00:18Instead of the Senate Committee on Public Order and Dangerous Drugs led by Senator Bato de la Rosa,
00:24the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee will conduct a motto-propio investigation into the Duterte drug war,
00:30according to Senate President Sheece Escudero.
00:33The Blue Ribbon Committee is the only one, and not all of the committees,
00:36to allow Senator Bato to conduct a hearing while we are on recess.
00:42I talked to them and I told them that if possible, they can coordinate with Senator Bato and Senator Goh,
00:49a lot of witnesses that they want to invite, and it is also scheduled to be a hearing.
00:55Escudero said that the hearing will be led by Senate Minority Leader Coco Pimentel, who is the subcommittee chairman.
01:02The war on drugs, the 6,000 to 30,000 alleged victims, and then was there really a state policy to kill those involved in drugs, that's what we need to determine.
01:15According to Pimentel, there will also be a discussion on the rules of the hearing.
01:19The committee is ready to invite the members who were invited, including former President Rodrigo Duterte.
01:26They will respect the presence and participation of Senator Bato de la Rosa and Senator Bong Go.
01:32I'm really objective and I'm fair, and then I will follow the evidence.
01:36I'm not involved in politics, so let's just follow the evidence.
01:42The Joint Investigation of the Department of Justice, NBI, and PNP-CIDG is also involved in the killings of Duterte Draguar.
01:50If we see a link of anyone, including the former president, then so be it. We will include them in the charges if the evidence warrants.
01:59As long as we are not accused, we are not letting go of the cold cases because there is no silence until there is justice.
