NewsTranscript
00:00The former anti-drug police officer, Colonel Eduardo Acierto,
00:05appeared in front of the Quad Committee of the Camera
00:07and was convinced that the former President Duterte
00:10had been given protection from some drug-personality criminals.
00:13The DOJ has set up a task force to investigate
00:16the extrajudicial killings in the drug war.
00:19Witness, Tina Panginiban Perez.
00:23It's been seven years, but it's still fresh.
00:26For Arsenia Chico, the loss of two children is painful.
00:30It's only been a day since they were killed in the Omanay Operation Contra Droga.
00:35One of them was planted by drugs and guns.
00:39I really want to fight.
00:42I want to give proof of their deaths.
00:46No one was answered, and the children were only added.
00:49No one was answered, and the children were only added
00:52to the long list of those killed.
00:55But the hope now is for people like Arsenia,
00:59the DOJ is now setting up a task force
01:02to investigate the Omanay extrajudicial killings
01:06or EJKs in the Duterte drug war.
01:09The PNP is now also linking the records
01:13of unresolved deaths.
01:16This is a big challenge because we're talking about thousands of deaths.
01:20No matter how long will it take, we will work on this.
01:24The investigation of the Quad Committee on the Drug War continues in Camara.
01:37A while ago, the former Customs Intelligence Officer Jimmy Guban
01:42met former Anti-Drugs Police Officer Colonel Eduardo Asierto.
01:47This was the first time the two met
01:50after Guban denied the accusation that Asierto
01:54facilitated the smuggling of illegal drugs
01:58inside magnetic lifters.
02:00For six years, sir.
02:08Sir, it's got to work.
02:10Thank you, Jimmy. Thank you. Take care.
02:13Guban said before that he was forced to teach Asierto
02:17because of the fear of Congressman Polong Duterte
02:20and Atty. Man Scarpio,
02:22the wife of Vice President Sara Duterte.
02:25He also told former Economic Advisor Michael Yang
02:28that Omanay was really involved in smuggling drugs.
02:32Asierto said that he submitted the intelligence report
02:36to NOA PNP Chief Bato De La Rosa.
02:39But he didn't notice it.
02:41We discovered that the protection that was given
02:45by Panggolong Duterte
02:47to two drug personalities,
02:49Michael Yang and Alan Lee.
02:54I think that's my biggest accomplishment.
02:58That's why I was able to take care of both of them.
03:03During that time, Mr. Chair, there was no Michael Yang.
03:06The only person I know who was told by Col. Asierto
03:09is John Sunchua,
03:11which is both.
03:12Those two are our subjects.
03:14But there was no Michael Yang during that time.
03:16We listened to Duterte's reaction,
03:19the son of Congressman Duterte and Atty. Man Scarpio,
03:22but they didn't listen.
03:24In the letter that was sent by the lawyer
03:26of former President Rodrigo Duterte,
03:28Duterte was in doubt about the integrity of the Quadcom,
03:33which is a political ploy
03:35to frame him for crimes he didn't commit.
03:38The former president is also worried
03:41because the Quadcom is forcing its resource person
03:44to lie.
03:46The committee of the transcript of his statements
03:49to the Senate about the war on drugs
03:52may also ask for it
03:53because he has already said a lot there.
03:56Not a few chairs of the Quadcom of the Camera
03:59were able to stop the former president
04:01and his allies.
04:04Enough!
04:06Enough with the gaslighting!
04:08Enough with the destruction!
04:11Enough with the squid tactics!
04:14The Quadcom is still stubborn.
04:16They are not being forced.
04:18Forced admissions in any way
04:20was never part of Quadcom.
04:23We may not have extracted yet
04:25the information fully from them,
04:28but we never put words in their mouth.
04:31The wife of the Vice President,
04:33Atty. Carpio, did not hear
04:35and asked for a copy of the affidavits of the witnesses.
04:40The Chief of Staff of Senator Bongo
04:42sent a letter that he will not attend
04:45but he did not mention why.
04:48We are also listening to Senator Bato de la Rosa's statement
04:51and the one mentioned, Michael Yang.
04:54For GMA Integrated News,
04:56I am Tina Panganiban-Perez.
04:59According to Michael Yang's lawyer,
05:01Atty. Raymond Fortun,
05:03he will still ask the client
05:05regarding the issue.
