00:00I can't wait to meet the former President Rodrigo Duterte at the House Quad Committee hearing on war on drugs.
00:07He was formally invited to answer his allegations,
00:11which ordered the implementation of DAWO's style of war on drugs in the whole country.
00:16First up is Darlene Cai.
00:21This is the invitation of the House Quad Committee to the former President Rodrigo Duterte
00:25in the letter signed by the Quad Committee Overall Chairperson Representative Ace Barbers
00:29Duterte was invited to the hearing of the committee on Tuesday, October 22
00:34to clarify particular issues related to extrajudicial killings.
00:39At the last hearing, Retired Police Colonel Roina Garma said
00:43that Duterte was ordered to replicate the DAWO model of drug war in the whole country
00:48where there is a reward system for the police to kill drug suspects.
00:53The Quad Committee has not yet confirmed if Duterte will attend
00:56but they are ready.
00:58They will give the former President a chance to answer Garma's allegations.
01:03We will definitely afford him the courtesy due to him.
01:07We will force him to be intelligent in these questions.
01:12We will have to get some information if there is a reward system to implement.
01:19Is there really an order to shoot? What are the other orders?
01:24The Quad Committee Co-Chairman Representative Benny Abante said
01:28along with the discussion of the influence of Duterte's statements to the public.
01:32The former President should also realize that because he said several times in his war on drugs
01:40that drug pushers or whoever should be killed.
01:45He said it over and over again.
01:47It's not actually a personal order to those people to kill.
01:51But that's the declaration of our President.
01:54So what did our police do? They were involved in the kill.
01:57Former NAPOLCOM Commissioner Edilberto Leonardo and Peter Parungo, alias Pedro, were also invited to the hearing.
02:04They were the people who were killed by Garma.
02:06We can see that there are many people who were killed.
02:10They were not drug pushers but drug users with mistaken identities.
02:17Some people say that this is collateral damage.
02:20No. This is death, not just collateral damage.
02:23We are trying to get the information of the former President in the interview of SMN on Wednesday.
02:28He said that he has not yet received an invitation to attend the hearing.
02:32He also denied the allegations of Garma.
02:35He said that he only gave operational funds to the police
02:38and that he only gave a reward for greeting and freeing.
02:40This is the first news. Darlene Cai for GMA Integrated News.
