00:00A judge approved the unification of the investigation of the Camera and Senate on war on drugs by the Duterte administration.
00:08Former President Rodrigo Duterte, on the other hand, will not be able to face the hearing of the House Quad Committee today.
00:15Tina Pangaliban Perez has the first news.
00:20The lawyer of former President Rodrigo Duterte told the Quad Committee of the Camera that the former president will not be able to attend the hearing.
00:29Duterte wanted to go, but he short-noticed the invitation of the Quad Committee and the former president will only return to Davao from Manila on Wednesday.
00:40The former president's mood is not good and he needs to rest.
00:45But the former president agreed to attend the next Quad Committee hearings after November 1.
00:52We will afford him the courtesy due to a former president.
00:57Recommendation of the lead chair of the Quad Committee, why not unify the investigation of the Camera and the Senate on war on drugs and extrajudicial killings?
01:09For the House and the Senate conducting a session jointly, that's not new. But conducting an investigation, I think this is new.
01:21That's why we are proposing, if the rules does not prohibit that, then therefore, I guess, to me, we all agree.
01:30But according to Senate President Chief Escudero, it is not in the rules of the Senate that it can conduct a joint investigation with the Camera.
01:39The Senate Blue Ribbon Committee will hold a hearing in the Senate on EJK.
01:45The Congress is on a break. That's why under the rules of the Senate, only the Blue Ribbon Committee can conduct a hearing, even if there is no referral from the plenary.
01:55And because Blue Ribbon Chair Senator Pia Cayetano is in an energy summit, Senate Minority Leader and Justice Committee Chair Coco Pimentel will lead the hearing.
02:08We can hold the hearing in these coming two weeks.
02:12The hearing will start at the beginning of Duterte's term from 2016 until it ends in 2022.
02:20The former police officer and former PCSO General Manager Roina Garma and former NAPOCOM Commissioner Edilberto Leonardo will be present.
02:32The former president can also be invited to the Senate hearing. Pimentel assured that the investigation will be fair.
02:41Of course, if he's willing to go, then maybe we can set it in the second hearing.
02:46Let's finish all the allegations in the first hearing so that we can answer them in the second hearing.
02:53Senator Bato Dallarosa said that he wants his committee on public order and dangerous drugs to lead the investigation.
03:03But he agreed that the Blue Ribbon Committee will conduct the investigation.
03:07Dallarosa was the first PNP chief appointed by Duterte during the drug war.
03:13The public deserves to know the truth. That's why I am happy that this investigation will be handled by the Blue Ribbon Committee of the Senate because I know the truth will be revealed.
