This programme contains some strong language | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
This programme contains scenes which some viewers may find disturbing | 0:00:05 | 0:00:09 | |
We've had a tip that there's been a killing, so we're heading to the scene now. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:13 | |
OK, so all the journalists are running over this way, | 0:00:13 | 0:00:16 | |
so we'll follow them. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:17 | |
The body is just in front of the car there. It's very close. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:25 | |
His hands are tied behind his back. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
They've got the...crime-scene people are working the scene already. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:34 | |
'I've come to the Philippines in Southeast Asia to investigate | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
'the world's bloodiest war on drugs. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:41 | |
'I've joined a night shift with some local journalists | 0:00:42 | 0:00:46 | |
'in the capital, Manila.' | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
How many bodies like this do you see on a typical night? | 0:00:48 | 0:00:52 | |
-Our minimum for a night is ten. -Ten a night? -Ten a night. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:56 | |
-So our largest number is 22, all around Metro Manila. -22? -Yeah. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
All around Metro Manila. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
His wallet's been completely emptied. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
Inside was a note that said, | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
"Sorry, I destroyed my life because of drugs. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
"Sorry, I am a pusher." And he's got a single shot to his head. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
'We receive a tip-off about another killing | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
'and rush with the press pack to get to the scene. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
'But before we reach there, news comes in of another execution. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:32 | |
'And then another.' | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
It's madness. The journalists just can't cope with the numbers. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
They're zigzagging all across the city trying to find these killings. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:43 | |
I'm told we're up to killing number four now | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
and no-one's even had time to cover two or three. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
'This time it's a homeless drug user who's been shot dead.' | 0:01:57 | 0:02:02 | |
As you can see, it's a really busy street. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
We've tried talking to some of the people on the street | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
and nobody is willing to talk on camera, | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
there's a real feeling of fear about these killings. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:15 | |
'In the past eight months, | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
'over 7,000 people have been killed in the Philippines.' | 0:02:32 | 0:02:37 | |
'Patricia is an investigative journalist | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
'who has been covering the wave of violence.' | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
Pat, can you tell me a bit about what's been going on | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
over the last few months? | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
President Rodrigo Duterte was elected as president. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:06 | |
He ran on a platform against crime, | 0:03:06 | 0:03:08 | |
against drugs and against corruption. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
He promised that, within six months, all of that would be gone. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
He also promised it would be bloody. And it has been. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
Is this normal to the Philippines? Have you seen this before? | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |
Sure, we have crime. Er, but not every night, not in these numbers. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:26 | |
We don't expect our politicians to keep their promises. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
This is one time that a promise was kept. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
HE MAKES GRUESOME NOISE | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
CROWD ROARS | 0:03:50 | 0:03:51 | |
'Rodrigo Duterte swept to power in the Philippines last June, | 0:03:56 | 0:04:00 | |
'after vowing to kill anyone involved in drugs.' | 0:04:00 | 0:04:04 | |
'He campaigned as the hard-man mayor who cleaned up his city of crime, | 0:04:10 | 0:04:15 | |
'earning the nickname Duterte Harry.' | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
Duterte! Duterte! | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
'Duterte's brash, bold and blunt, driving crowds wild like | 0:04:24 | 0:04:30 | |
'no politician before him. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:32 | |
'He won the election in a landslide.' | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
'The wave of executions began as soon as Duterte took office. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:51 | |
'A local newspaper keeps a list of people killed.' | 0:04:53 | 0:04:58 | |
What is...is shocking to see is that, actually, | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
so many of these were on the police drug watchlist, | 0:05:02 | 0:05:07 | |
so these are all people that are known to police. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
The majority in front of me are killed by unknown hitmen, | 0:05:11 | 0:05:16 | |
or killed in police operations, | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
and there's absolutely thousands of them. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
You can just keep scrolling - | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
just name after name after name, | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
killed, killed, killed, | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
all for this war on drugs. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
'According to police statistics, a staggering 2,500 drug pushers | 0:05:44 | 0:05:49 | |
'have been killed during police operations. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
'I want to see first-hand how the police work, | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 | |
'so I join them on one of their drug busts.' | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
So, apparently, someone from the market put in a phone call and said, | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
"We're sick of the drug users around here. Can you come and have a look?" | 0:06:06 | 0:06:09 | |
And so that's why this operation's happening. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:12 | |
'The team split into groups and spreads out. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:20 | |
'The police are looking for shabu, the local name for crystal meth, | 0:06:25 | 0:06:30 | |
'a wildly popular drug here.' | 0:06:30 | 0:06:32 | |
HE KNOCKS AT DOOR | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
'They tear the home of one suspect upside down | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
'and find evidence of drug use in the hallway.' | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
So, the scales are for weighing drugs? | 0:06:56 | 0:06:59 | |
So, distributing drugs? | 0:06:59 | 0:07:00 | |
And...and the pipe? | 0:07:02 | 0:07:04 | |
'Another arrest is made - | 0:07:08 | 0:07:10 | |
'undercover operatives catch a man in the act of selling shabu. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
'They call these kind of operations "buy-bust".' | 0:07:17 | 0:07:20 | |
Are buy-busts very dangerous? | 0:07:23 | 0:07:24 | |
'In the flat upstairs, | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
'an informant identifies one tenant as a drug pusher, | 0:07:35 | 0:07:40 | |
'and I get a taste of the police's hardline approach.' | 0:07:40 | 0:07:44 | |
OK. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:06 | |
So, for the police, this has been a very successful day. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:16 | |
This suspect, who's in handcuffs now, is their 15th arrest. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:20 | |
'At the station, those arrested are tested for drugs.' | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
-Is it negative? -Positive. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
Positive? Have they all been positive? | 0:08:37 | 0:08:40 | |
'Those who test positive are added to the drugs watchlist, | 0:08:43 | 0:08:48 | |
'a long list of everyone believed to use or sell drugs.' | 0:08:48 | 0:08:52 | |
So, this was the male holding cell, | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
and you've got all the recent arrests in here. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
How many of you are in here for drugs charges? | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
THEY SPEAK OWN LANGUAGE | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
'The police allow us to film the whole mission, | 0:09:12 | 0:09:15 | |
'and I don't witness any killings or violence... | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
'..but, back out on the streets, it's not long before I run into | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
'the aftermath of another police operation.' | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
OK, so we've found the crime scene, | 0:09:31 | 0:09:32 | |
and I think it's under this bridge here. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
'There are multiple dead bodies, riddled with bullets.' | 0:09:44 | 0:09:48 | |
The police have gone undercover and posed as buyers. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:55 | |
Quite often, the suspects end up dead - | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
like, at this one, you've got three dead bodies. | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
'I speak to the police officer in charge.' | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
What went wrong? What happened? | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
My policemen retaliated, because the suspects shoot back... | 0:10:08 | 0:10:13 | |
shoot at the police officers, | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
sensing that they are, already, police officers. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
All three of them shot back? | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
Three of them. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:22 | |
All of them had guns? | 0:10:22 | 0:10:23 | |
Yes. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:24 | |
'The police almost always say that they have acted in self-defence | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
'against drug dealers, but I want to investigate claims | 0:10:36 | 0:10:41 | |
'that many of those killed have been set up by the police.' | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
This is the mother of a victim, | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
and she's going to tell me what happened to her son. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:04 | |
This is where...the place where my son was killed... | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
He was lying here, | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
-then the policeman came in. -Mm-hm? | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
He blocked the door, then killed my son. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:21 | |
'Christina says she wasn't here when her son was killed, | 0:11:21 | 0:11:25 | |
'but neighbours told her what happened. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:28 | |
'The police claim it was Henry who fired first | 0:11:28 | 0:11:32 | |
'when they came to arrest him.' | 0:11:32 | 0:11:34 | |
I said, "This is not true. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
"He has no gun. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
"He has no gun." | 0:11:40 | 0:11:42 | |
They just placed it on his hand, I thought. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:46 | |
I think that's what they did. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
So they did find a gun here, but you think they placed it here? | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
Yeah. They placed it on his hand. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
Why would they do that, though? | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
So that they have a reason to kill my son. | 0:11:56 | 0:12:00 | |
Did the neighbours hear anything? | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
IN OWN LANGUAGE: | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
That's terrible. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
I'm sorry I'm making you go over this. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:22 | |
Oh, dear. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:23 | |
Oh, Christina, let me give you a cuddle. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
Oh... | 0:12:29 | 0:12:31 | |
I'm so sorry. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
Henry's mum even admitted to me that, | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
yes, he is guilty to a certain extent - | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
he is involved in drugs - | 0:12:46 | 0:12:47 | |
but, still, that doesn't justify him being killed, | 0:12:47 | 0:12:50 | |
and yet this is just one case, | 0:12:50 | 0:12:51 | |
and there are thousands of these in this country. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:54 | |
It just... It's not right. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
ENGINE PURRS | 0:13:31 | 0:13:34 | |
Hello. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
'I want to know why dealers continue to sell | 0:13:36 | 0:13:39 | |
'in a terrifying climate like this. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:41 | |
'Most are too frightened to talk, | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
'but we managed to track down someone who agrees.' | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
GUN CLICKS | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
I'm on my way to meet with a drug dealer, | 0:13:53 | 0:13:56 | |
so I'm about to meet the person who's doing | 0:13:56 | 0:13:58 | |
the most dangerous job in all of Manila. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:01 | |
Do you think the authorities know that you are a drug pusher? | 0:14:09 | 0:14:14 | |
IN OWN LANGUAGE: | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
'The dealer shows me her merchandise. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
'She sells each of these packets of shabu for just £4.' | 0:14:38 | 0:14:44 | |
Just for having - cos, to me, this looks like a small amount - | 0:14:44 | 0:14:47 | |
for that, could you be killed? | 0:14:47 | 0:14:49 | |
How do you still manage to sell drugs in this environment? | 0:14:54 | 0:15:00 | |
'She tells me the authorities have already searched her home | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
'but didn't find her stash, luckily for her.' | 0:15:22 | 0:15:26 | |
Never in my whole career have I met with a drug dealer who was | 0:15:49 | 0:15:53 | |
so on edge and terrified for their life. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:59 | |
And her eyes were moving around. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:00 | |
Any noise she heard she was on alert, she was listening, | 0:16:00 | 0:16:03 | |
and I can completely understand why. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
When the killings started, drug users and pushers were given | 0:16:14 | 0:16:18 | |
an ultimatum by the authorities - surrender or die. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:22 | |
According to the police, over one million people surrendered, | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
pledging never to touch drugs again. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
Thousands were sent to rehab. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:40 | |
-Hello. -Hi. -What is it here? | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
But as those facilities overran, | 0:16:50 | 0:16:52 | |
many have been ordered to undergo a less conventional treatment. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:56 | |
It's Zumba to get clean. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
I've never in my life come across anything like this before. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
I think also they have to come. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
If they don't come, they're breaching their conditions of | 0:17:05 | 0:17:08 | |
the agreement they've made in surrendering. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:10 | |
Meredith says she was addicted to shabu for 25 years. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:17 | |
I want to know how Duterte's war on drugs has affected her. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:25 | |
-Your house! -Yes. -Yes. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
-How many of you live here? -Ten. -Ten? -Yeah. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
That's a lot of you. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:38 | |
'Meredith surrendered six months ago.' | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
'She says it was Duterte's war on drugs | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
'that finally persuaded her to quit.' | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
So, do you think the war on drugs is a good thing? | 0:18:21 | 0:18:24 | |
I've heard of so many people being killed for the war on drugs. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:31 | |
What do you think of that? | 0:18:31 | 0:18:32 | |
'Meredith shows me what her street used to be like before Duterte.' | 0:18:47 | 0:18:51 | |
And so, how has the area changed since then? | 0:19:02 | 0:19:05 | |
The thing that struck me the most was that she was addicted | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
for 25 years and nothing could talk her out of taking her drugs, | 0:19:16 | 0:19:20 | |
not even her children, | 0:19:20 | 0:19:22 | |
but then the war on drugs came along and she's cleaned up, | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
she's managed to stay off drugs because he's also pushed | 0:19:25 | 0:19:28 | |
all the dealers out of the area. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
And so I can totally understand why, from her point of view, | 0:19:30 | 0:19:33 | |
someone like Duterte actually does hold appeal. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:37 | |
Duterte's apparent success in tackling drug use | 0:19:41 | 0:19:44 | |
has gone down well with most Filipinos. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:47 | |
But the longer I'm here, the more it becomes clear who is bearing | 0:19:48 | 0:19:52 | |
the brunt of all this violence. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
The thing is that every single one of these victims that | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
I've been told about their cases, they're the poorest, | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
they're the lowest of the low. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
So it don't feel like this is a war on drugs. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
They're not targeting the big guy, they're shooting fish in a barrel. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
These are the little boys and they're easy targets, | 0:20:08 | 0:20:11 | |
and they're the ones getting shot. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
I think, yeah, we're here. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:26 | |
'On another night shift, we find the first body of the evening.' | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
So, it's a really disturbing scene. We're on a really busy bridge. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
There's traffic just going past. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
There's not even police tape set up yet, it's that recent. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
And the poor soul's just lying there. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:51 | |
'There are multiple gunshot wounds on the body. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
'It's another execution.' | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
So, literally been here, like, four or five minutes and the body | 0:20:59 | 0:21:03 | |
has been cleared away, | 0:21:03 | 0:21:04 | |
they're just finishing off and packing away | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
and they're getting ready for the next one. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
'We don't have to wait long. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
'As we head back, near a slum, there's a second body.' | 0:21:17 | 0:21:21 | |
So, it looks like the body of a girl. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
She's obviously been shot. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:28 | |
She looks young. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:30 | |
-Two under the bridge? -Two bodies, one body... | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
'A local resident shows me how many bodies have turned up | 0:21:36 | 0:21:40 | |
'just in this underpass.' | 0:21:40 | 0:21:42 | |
So, how many in total? | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
And in how many months were there ten bodies? | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
That's more than one body a month. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
-Yeah. -That's a lot of bodies. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
The next morning, I follow the dead body of the young woman. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:13 | |
So, this is the funeral home. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
They've got a contract with the police | 0:22:25 | 0:22:27 | |
and you can see how busy they are. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:29 | |
They're busy here, there's a gentleman over there | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
who's cleaning a stretcher, and it looks like blood he's cleaning off. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
And then I think they're body bags you've got hanging up here. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
'Staff tell me the number of bodies they receive | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
'has doubled since Duterte's war began.' | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
Sounds bad to say, but it's good business for you to be | 0:22:52 | 0:22:56 | |
accredited with the police and be going straight to the crime scenes. | 0:22:56 | 0:23:00 | |
'Relatives of the young girl arrive to collect the body. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:22 | |
'They will only talk to me off camera.' | 0:23:23 | 0:23:27 | |
I've spoken to a family member and he said a witness | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
has come forward and spoken to them and said the police picked up | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
the girl just before she was shot. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:35 | |
Now, that does imply the police may be involved in the killing. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:38 | |
It's something we can't confirm. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
I said to him, "Are you going to try and launch an investigation | 0:23:40 | 0:23:43 | |
"or are you going to press charges?" And he said, "No." | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
He said, "If the police are behind her killing, | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
"what is the point in going to the police?" | 0:23:48 | 0:23:50 | |
'The role of the police in the killings is denying many | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
'bereaved families any hope of justice. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
'But they do have one option.' | 0:24:07 | 0:24:08 | |
This morning I've come to the Commission On Human Rights | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
as I've heard that this is the organisation that | 0:24:12 | 0:24:15 | |
desperate families come to looking for help. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
And today I'm heading out with their investigation team. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
'Jun runs a special unit | 0:24:24 | 0:24:25 | |
'which investigates extrajudicial killings.' | 0:24:25 | 0:24:29 | |
So, you think it'll be a long day? | 0:24:29 | 0:24:31 | |
-Only two. -OK. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:34 | |
Do you find people are reluctant to talk? | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
Why do you think they are so scared of the police? | 0:24:48 | 0:24:50 | |
So, we're heading into the home, apparently, | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
where the shooting happened. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:05 | |
There's traces of blood still there. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
The victim was 34. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:28 | |
He was shot four times by the police. | 0:25:28 | 0:25:31 | |
A sign was left next to his body. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
It warned, "Drug pusher and addict. Don't follow." | 0:25:34 | 0:25:38 | |
The police claim the victim was selling drugs to undercover cops. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:59 | |
According to their report, | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
he fired his gun first after realising they were police. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:05 | |
Back at the office, Jun examines the official autopsy report. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:34 | |
The victim had four gunshot wounds and yet the police say they... | 0:26:47 | 0:26:54 | |
He tried to fire back at them. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:56 | |
But there's no trace of him firing back. Is that right? | 0:26:56 | 0:26:59 | |
And you have other cases where it's similar like this? | 0:27:01 | 0:27:04 | |
I see. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:11 | |
But why, though? | 0:27:12 | 0:27:14 | |
So he needs another six months. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:30 | |
But then, what happens after that six months? | 0:27:31 | 0:27:34 | |
Yeah. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:40 | |
One reason Duterte can carry on his brutal campaign | 0:27:48 | 0:27:51 | |
is because he's incredibly popular. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:54 | |
The more outrageous his remarks, | 0:28:05 | 0:28:07 | |
the more the public seem to love him. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
Over 80% of Filipinos support Duterte. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:14 | |
He's achieved cult status. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:17 | |
There's a group in the Philippines that are so popular | 0:28:25 | 0:28:28 | |
called the Mocha Girls, and they're performing here tonight. | 0:28:28 | 0:28:32 | |
I've also heard that they're really big Duterte fans, | 0:28:32 | 0:28:35 | |
so I'm hoping to have a little chat with them after they perform. | 0:28:35 | 0:28:38 | |
Their show is pretty raunchy. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:46 | |
They're like the Filipino version of The Pussycat Dolls. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:54 | |
Audience participation is encouraged. | 0:28:55 | 0:28:58 | |
CHEERING | 0:28:59 | 0:29:01 | |
And the boys are well up for it. | 0:29:03 | 0:29:05 | |
Along with the fun comes a heavy dose of politics. | 0:29:07 | 0:29:11 | |
I see many in the audience raise their fist | 0:29:26 | 0:29:29 | |
with the Duterte salute. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:30 | |
'Backstage, I catch up with the band's leader, Mocha.' | 0:29:46 | 0:29:49 | |
Hi, I'm Livvy. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:50 | |
Nice to meet you. Thank you so much for having us. | 0:29:50 | 0:29:53 | |
Thanks for coming today. | 0:29:53 | 0:29:54 | |
You're clearly a very strong supporter. | 0:29:56 | 0:29:59 | |
Can you explain to me, or summarise, how much of a supporter you are? | 0:30:00 | 0:30:04 | |
Just like President Duterte, | 0:30:04 | 0:30:07 | |
he said that he is willing to risk his life, | 0:30:07 | 0:30:11 | |
honour and presidency... | 0:30:11 | 0:30:13 | |
..to serve this country, | 0:30:15 | 0:30:17 | |
to serve the ordinary Filipino people. | 0:30:17 | 0:30:20 | |
And I can say the same. | 0:30:20 | 0:30:22 | |
In fact, it's not just me, it's all his supporters, | 0:30:23 | 0:30:26 | |
because it's now or never. | 0:30:26 | 0:30:29 | |
And he is our last chance. | 0:30:29 | 0:30:31 | |
As you know, around the world, | 0:30:31 | 0:30:32 | |
people have been highly critical of the war on drugs campaign, | 0:30:32 | 0:30:36 | |
especially because there have been thousands of deaths. | 0:30:36 | 0:30:40 | |
What do you think about the extrajudicial killings? | 0:30:40 | 0:30:43 | |
It depends on the definition of EJK, because now, | 0:30:43 | 0:30:47 | |
whenever someone dies, they blame it on the President. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:51 | |
It's as simple as this - before Duterte became President, | 0:30:52 | 0:30:58 | |
it's the law-abiding citizens that are afraid to walk | 0:30:58 | 0:31:01 | |
in the streets, to go out in the streets. | 0:31:01 | 0:31:04 | |
But now that Duterte became the President, | 0:31:04 | 0:31:07 | |
it's the criminals who are afraid to go out on the streets. | 0:31:07 | 0:31:10 | |
So I think that's a very good thing. | 0:31:10 | 0:31:12 | |
Duterte's government wants to show everyone | 0:31:24 | 0:31:27 | |
they're winning the war on drugs. | 0:31:27 | 0:31:29 | |
Today, the drug enforcement agency is destroying | 0:31:34 | 0:31:37 | |
the seizures from three raids. | 0:31:37 | 0:31:39 | |
So, this is the other side of the war on drugs. | 0:31:41 | 0:31:43 | |
One side I've seen out on the streets | 0:31:43 | 0:31:45 | |
and this side is the PR campaign. | 0:31:45 | 0:31:48 | |
They invite all the media to come and watch. | 0:31:48 | 0:31:51 | |
This is about getting the public on side. | 0:31:52 | 0:31:54 | |
'The meth lab chemicals and equipment getting destroyed | 0:32:00 | 0:32:03 | |
'are worth a total of £50,000.' | 0:32:03 | 0:32:06 | |
So, no-one can deny that this is an impressive haul | 0:32:08 | 0:32:11 | |
of sophisticated meth production. | 0:32:11 | 0:32:14 | |
But if this is the second destruction like this | 0:32:16 | 0:32:18 | |
in the space of six months, | 0:32:18 | 0:32:21 | |
I wonder how big the drug problem really is. | 0:32:21 | 0:32:24 | |
'Some people believe Duterte has massively exaggerated | 0:32:32 | 0:32:36 | |
'the drugs problem in the Philippines. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:38 | |
'One of Duterte's fiercest critics is Senator Antonio Trillanes.' | 0:32:45 | 0:32:50 | |
The Philippines actually has a lower percentage | 0:32:51 | 0:32:57 | |
than the global average, in terms of drug users for the whole population. | 0:32:57 | 0:33:03 | |
The global average is 5%, | 0:33:03 | 0:33:06 | |
the national average is 2%, so it's way lower. | 0:33:06 | 0:33:11 | |
But he needed to magnify it so that he can justify | 0:33:11 | 0:33:16 | |
this deadly war on drugs. | 0:33:16 | 0:33:19 | |
'He tells me about the first time he met Duterte.' | 0:33:21 | 0:33:24 | |
He was basically bragging about this person who was kneeling down. | 0:33:24 | 0:33:31 | |
He shot him in the head, a mafia-style execution, | 0:33:31 | 0:33:37 | |
and he was proud about it. | 0:33:37 | 0:33:39 | |
He was bragging about it. | 0:33:39 | 0:33:41 | |
And I was afraid for my country, that... | 0:33:41 | 0:33:44 | |
..he's such a monster, he's a psycho. | 0:33:46 | 0:33:50 | |
Duterte hasn't only encouraged police | 0:33:55 | 0:33:58 | |
to carry out extrajudicial killings. | 0:33:58 | 0:34:00 | |
Since he took power, | 0:34:16 | 0:34:18 | |
over 4,000 executions have been committed by vigilantes. | 0:34:18 | 0:34:22 | |
I'm feeling nervous. We're on our way to meet a vigilante killer. | 0:34:26 | 0:34:30 | |
This is one of the guys who's actually hired to go out | 0:34:30 | 0:34:33 | |
and kill users, pushers, and he's finally agreed to meet with us, | 0:34:33 | 0:34:36 | |
so we're heading there right now. | 0:34:36 | 0:34:38 | |
The vigilante speaks to me on condition of anonymity. | 0:34:45 | 0:34:48 | |
-Hello. -Hello. | 0:34:53 | 0:34:55 | |
Why is Duterte so popular? | 0:34:57 | 0:34:59 | |
What do you do to help battle the drugs war? | 0:35:15 | 0:35:18 | |
Why? | 0:35:22 | 0:35:23 | |
How do you go about that? | 0:35:28 | 0:35:29 | |
'He says he belongs to a network of vigilantes who work together | 0:35:35 | 0:35:39 | |
'and kill drug dealers by breaking into their homes.' | 0:35:39 | 0:35:43 | |
Uh-huh. | 0:35:46 | 0:35:47 | |
-In the back of my head? -Yes. Back of the head. | 0:35:50 | 0:35:51 | |
See, this is making me nervous, you just showing me. | 0:35:51 | 0:35:54 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:35:54 | 0:35:55 | |
'He says that, in the last few months, | 0:35:57 | 0:35:59 | |
'they've executed 12 drug pushers.' | 0:35:59 | 0:36:03 | |
A lot of people watching this might think that drug dealers | 0:36:03 | 0:36:06 | |
should be arrested, sent to prison and it's dealt with, | 0:36:06 | 0:36:09 | |
and that killing drug dealers is wrong. | 0:36:09 | 0:36:14 | |
What would you say to them? | 0:36:14 | 0:36:16 | |
Do the police know what you do? | 0:36:32 | 0:36:34 | |
'He says it's the police who provide | 0:36:44 | 0:36:46 | |
'the names of people to be eliminated.' | 0:36:46 | 0:36:49 | |
Do you speak directly to the police? | 0:36:49 | 0:36:52 | |
But what do they say? | 0:36:58 | 0:36:59 | |
And how do you feel just after a killing? | 0:37:04 | 0:37:07 | |
What's kind of unbelievable is the police want people from | 0:37:27 | 0:37:31 | |
the communities to carry out the dirty work. | 0:37:31 | 0:37:34 | |
And they're almost recruiting people, whoever they may be, | 0:37:34 | 0:37:40 | |
within the slums, you can then target and kill these people. | 0:37:40 | 0:37:43 | |
So the police not only have lost control, but now they are | 0:37:43 | 0:37:47 | |
handing control to people who are willing to go out and kill for them. | 0:37:47 | 0:37:51 | |
It's insane. | 0:37:52 | 0:37:53 | |
Most of the dead in this war have been killed after being added | 0:38:13 | 0:38:17 | |
to the police's watchlist. | 0:38:17 | 0:38:18 | |
'To find out how this list is put together, | 0:38:21 | 0:38:24 | |
'I join an operation known as Tokhang - | 0:38:24 | 0:38:27 | |
'knock and surrender.' | 0:38:27 | 0:38:28 | |
So, they've got a list of names and they're literally going | 0:38:31 | 0:38:34 | |
house to house, neighbour to neighbour, | 0:38:34 | 0:38:36 | |
people in the street - everyone is being checked. | 0:38:36 | 0:38:38 | |
'The police work together with local volunteers who come up with names, | 0:38:42 | 0:38:47 | |
'often based on rumours.' | 0:38:47 | 0:38:49 | |
So, you work very closely with the community and listen for what | 0:38:51 | 0:38:55 | |
people are saying about each other. | 0:38:55 | 0:38:57 | |
Do you hear rumours and...? | 0:39:02 | 0:39:04 | |
'The homes of former drug users are prime targets.' | 0:39:11 | 0:39:15 | |
Six months. | 0:39:29 | 0:39:30 | |
'People are tested for drugs in their own kitchens.' | 0:39:32 | 0:39:37 | |
-Were they positive or negative? -Negative. All negative. | 0:39:37 | 0:39:41 | |
Clean! Give me a high five. | 0:39:43 | 0:39:44 | |
Yes, mate! | 0:39:44 | 0:39:46 | |
'Back on the street, a local man is stopped. | 0:39:56 | 0:39:59 | |
'Someone has named him as a drug user.' | 0:39:59 | 0:40:02 | |
He looks quite angry about it. | 0:40:07 | 0:40:09 | |
'The police and volunteers escort him back to his shop.' | 0:40:13 | 0:40:16 | |
I think here you're guilty until you prove yourself innocent | 0:40:32 | 0:40:35 | |
when it comes to drugs. | 0:40:35 | 0:40:36 | |
'I'm terrified about what could happen to him if he tests positive.' | 0:40:40 | 0:40:44 | |
The suspect, who's just proven he's clean, is furious. | 0:41:09 | 0:41:12 | |
He's saying it's a breach of his human rights, he has a right | 0:41:12 | 0:41:15 | |
to know who's snitched on him and said that he's a drug user. | 0:41:15 | 0:41:19 | |
How does this make you feel, being forced to do a drug test? | 0:41:19 | 0:41:23 | |
Oh... | 0:41:42 | 0:41:44 | |
Oh, dude. | 0:41:44 | 0:41:46 | |
Oh, man, come on. | 0:41:46 | 0:41:48 | |
This is really starting to feel like a witch-hunt. | 0:42:01 | 0:42:04 | |
It feels like it's neighbour on neighbour, and people are | 0:42:04 | 0:42:07 | |
still worried, and in this climate, if you don't like someone, you | 0:42:07 | 0:42:12 | |
can take advantage of that and you can get them into serious trouble. | 0:42:12 | 0:42:16 | |
There are many stories of people exploiting this drugs war | 0:42:24 | 0:42:28 | |
to frame their enemies. | 0:42:28 | 0:42:30 | |
Even when they're innocent of any crime. | 0:42:31 | 0:42:34 | |
I travel north of Manila to meet a family who lost their son | 0:42:35 | 0:42:40 | |
only a few months earlier. | 0:42:40 | 0:42:42 | |
-Hello, I'm Livvy. -Hello. Come in. | 0:42:44 | 0:42:47 | |
-Thank you. -Welcome, welcome. -Thank you. | 0:42:47 | 0:42:50 | |
-Ah, so... -Yeah, this is my son, Yanis. -This is Yanis? | 0:42:50 | 0:42:54 | |
He was a victim. | 0:42:54 | 0:42:56 | |
It is now just a picture. | 0:42:58 | 0:43:01 | |
'Alfredo's son Yanis was 20 when he was killed.' | 0:43:02 | 0:43:07 | |
These are his... | 0:43:07 | 0:43:08 | |
-These are his things. -Ah, it's all his stuff. -Yeah. -Wow. | 0:43:10 | 0:43:14 | |
-So he liked basketball? -Yeah. | 0:43:14 | 0:43:17 | |
-He's a tall guy. -Yeah. | 0:43:17 | 0:43:18 | |
-Now it's lonely. -Yeah. -Lonely. -Very. -Yeah. | 0:43:20 | 0:43:24 | |
-This is the last time, when...when he came home, quite drunk... -Oh, no. | 0:43:26 | 0:43:33 | |
-..and he lost his key. -Oh, no. Did he...? | 0:43:33 | 0:43:36 | |
He get mad and hit the door! | 0:43:36 | 0:43:40 | |
And he forced this thing, knob, to open. | 0:43:40 | 0:43:46 | |
When he woke up in the morning, | 0:43:48 | 0:43:51 | |
he told his mother that he will replace the door. | 0:43:51 | 0:43:56 | |
-Ah, so he owes you a door, yeah? -Yeah. After two or three days... | 0:43:56 | 0:44:02 | |
..it happened. | 0:44:03 | 0:44:05 | |
He was killed. | 0:44:05 | 0:44:06 | |
'Yanis's family say he was killed because a local man held | 0:44:12 | 0:44:16 | |
'a grudge against him. | 0:44:16 | 0:44:18 | |
'He was shot dead by two men on a motorbike. | 0:44:18 | 0:44:22 | |
'The same way many anti-drug vigilantes execute their victims.' | 0:44:22 | 0:44:28 | |
Everybody knows he don't like drugs. | 0:44:28 | 0:44:31 | |
Especially people using drugs, he hates that very much. | 0:44:31 | 0:44:36 | |
-He even voted President Duterte. -He did, he voted Duterte? -Yes. -Yes. | 0:44:36 | 0:44:41 | |
Yes, we all did. Support him all the way. | 0:44:41 | 0:44:44 | |
The people who murdered Yanis | 0:44:44 | 0:44:47 | |
wanted to make it look like it was just another killing | 0:44:47 | 0:44:52 | |
in the war on drugs? | 0:44:52 | 0:44:53 | |
Precisely. | 0:44:53 | 0:44:55 | |
Because killing now is allowed. It's allowed here. | 0:44:55 | 0:45:02 | |
'As we were talking, Yanis's friend arrives. | 0:45:02 | 0:45:07 | |
'He was sitting next to him the night of the murder.' | 0:45:07 | 0:45:10 | |
-How many times was he shot? -Once. | 0:45:12 | 0:45:16 | |
-But it went straight through? -Yes. | 0:45:16 | 0:45:19 | |
Poor thing. | 0:45:19 | 0:45:20 | |
-He is so lucky. -Yes, very lucky. -How are you feeling now? | 0:45:22 | 0:45:27 | |
'He says they were out celebrating exam results.' | 0:45:39 | 0:45:43 | |
So the motorbike came from up here, to here? | 0:45:44 | 0:45:46 | |
-WOMAN: -Yes. | 0:45:47 | 0:45:49 | |
And he shot Yanis first? | 0:45:56 | 0:45:59 | |
He fell down. | 0:46:01 | 0:46:03 | |
Oh, he was trying to pull him away. | 0:46:07 | 0:46:10 | |
'Shot in the back, he ran up this hill and hid.' | 0:46:22 | 0:46:26 | |
What were you thinking when you were hiding behind that sand? | 0:46:28 | 0:46:31 | |
'The day after the murder, | 0:46:49 | 0:46:50 | |
'Alfredo published a letter on Facebook which went viral.' | 0:46:50 | 0:46:55 | |
"I am addressing this to you, Mr Rodrigo Duterte. | 0:46:56 | 0:46:59 | |
"My youngest son was shot in the head by riding in tandem men. | 0:47:01 | 0:47:06 | |
"He died instantly... | 0:47:06 | 0:47:08 | |
"..with multiple bullets in the head. Let me be very, very frank. | 0:47:10 | 0:47:15 | |
"If they know how to kill people, so do I." | 0:47:17 | 0:47:22 | |
Were you angry with Duterte when you wrote it? | 0:47:22 | 0:47:25 | |
If he did not initiate this campaign... | 0:47:25 | 0:47:30 | |
..perhaps my son is still alive now. | 0:47:32 | 0:47:35 | |
In all the weeks I've been here, and through all the witnesses | 0:47:50 | 0:47:53 | |
I've spoken to, so many people keep telling | 0:47:53 | 0:47:56 | |
me stories about alleged police involvement in the killings, | 0:47:56 | 0:47:58 | |
so I have come to the Philippine National Police because | 0:47:58 | 0:48:01 | |
I want to put it to them and ask them about it. | 0:48:01 | 0:48:03 | |
No, that gives me... | 0:48:03 | 0:48:06 | |
'Senior Superintendent Dionardo Carlos is the spokesperson for the | 0:48:06 | 0:48:10 | |
'Philippines National Police.' | 0:48:10 | 0:48:13 | |
There's a steady decline in the number of crime incidents | 0:48:13 | 0:48:16 | |
when we started our campaign against criminality. | 0:48:16 | 0:48:19 | |
All crime happening in the streets went down, except for murder. | 0:48:19 | 0:48:24 | |
Of all the crimes to not decrease, murder, that's surely the worst one. | 0:48:24 | 0:48:30 | |
Yes, but we always look at the total crime environment. | 0:48:30 | 0:48:36 | |
'He pulls up a graph that shows 759,000 people have surrendered | 0:48:37 | 0:48:43 | |
'since the drugs war began.' | 0:48:43 | 0:48:45 | |
This is about 95%, these are surrenderers. | 0:48:45 | 0:48:48 | |
Which is this figure? | 0:48:48 | 0:48:49 | |
These are the suspects that were killed, | 0:48:49 | 0:48:52 | |
1,795 are being killed in police operations. | 0:48:52 | 0:48:55 | |
That's a big number, though. | 0:48:55 | 0:48:57 | |
-And these are just police operations? -Yes, | 0:48:57 | 0:49:00 | |
police operations. Where do we focus? | 0:49:00 | 0:49:02 | |
On the spot in the clean sheet of paper, | 0:49:02 | 0:49:05 | |
or the entire paper that would say majority are surrendering? | 0:49:05 | 0:49:10 | |
But this spot, as you said, that's 1,795 families. | 0:49:10 | 0:49:16 | |
When we started doing this, | 0:49:16 | 0:49:17 | |
we would go out and always remind them, do not fight it out. | 0:49:17 | 0:49:22 | |
It is their decision to stay alive if they will not shoot our | 0:49:22 | 0:49:27 | |
police officers. | 0:49:27 | 0:49:29 | |
The stories we have heard from various families is that | 0:49:29 | 0:49:32 | |
there's a loved one in the house, the police have cleared the area, | 0:49:32 | 0:49:37 | |
come into the house, they have heard the shots fired, | 0:49:37 | 0:49:40 | |
there's been no exchange of gunfire and so those people, | 0:49:40 | 0:49:43 | |
because the police came and did that, | 0:49:43 | 0:49:45 | |
they are too terrified to then go to the police and report these police. | 0:49:45 | 0:49:49 | |
If they feel and they have proof and they have evidence and they witness | 0:49:49 | 0:49:54 | |
the police doing wrong, we always tell them, "Please report this | 0:49:54 | 0:50:00 | |
"and we will make them answer for the wrong deeds | 0:50:00 | 0:50:02 | |
"that they have done." | 0:50:02 | 0:50:04 | |
The world has been watching the President's campaign and his | 0:50:04 | 0:50:08 | |
declaration of the war on drugs and he did say, | 0:50:08 | 0:50:11 | |
he did encourage extrajudicial killings. | 0:50:11 | 0:50:15 | |
It then follows thousands of people being killed in the street | 0:50:15 | 0:50:20 | |
and they have signs, "I'm a pusher, don't be like me." | 0:50:20 | 0:50:23 | |
There was never an illegal order received by the men of the | 0:50:23 | 0:50:27 | |
Philippine National Police coming from the commander-in-chief. | 0:50:27 | 0:50:30 | |
Do you think people misunderstood it? | 0:50:30 | 0:50:32 | |
Because there are a lot of killings going on. | 0:50:32 | 0:50:34 | |
I mean, I've been out at night and seen the bodies. | 0:50:34 | 0:50:37 | |
Did he order the police or any of the members of the government | 0:50:37 | 0:50:41 | |
to do illegal act? None. Nothing. | 0:50:41 | 0:50:44 | |
But why did he say it, then? | 0:50:44 | 0:50:45 | |
Well, I cannot answer you that. | 0:50:45 | 0:50:48 | |
'Duterte is escalating the scope of his war on drugs.' | 0:50:55 | 0:50:59 | |
'He claims over 1,000 public officials are linked | 0:51:11 | 0:51:14 | |
'to the drugs trade. | 0:51:14 | 0:51:16 | |
'He's read out many of their names on TV. | 0:51:16 | 0:51:18 | |
'Some have already been killed.' | 0:51:19 | 0:51:21 | |
'The numbers in the firing line keep growing, | 0:51:25 | 0:51:28 | |
'and increasingly include the President's critics.' | 0:51:28 | 0:51:30 | |
So, President Duterte has made yet another controversial speech. | 0:51:32 | 0:51:36 | |
This time his focus was on human rights activists, | 0:51:36 | 0:51:40 | |
because they protect drug pushers, | 0:51:40 | 0:51:42 | |
and he's actually saying, "I will include you in the killings now." | 0:51:42 | 0:51:46 | |
So, of course, that's caused major alarm | 0:51:46 | 0:51:49 | |
in the human rights communities here. | 0:51:49 | 0:51:52 | |
'I made repeated requests for an interview with the man himself, | 0:51:58 | 0:52:01 | |
'but received no reply. | 0:52:01 | 0:52:03 | |
'Yet I did manage the next best thing.' | 0:52:05 | 0:52:08 | |
Hi, Miss Jocelyn. I'm Olivia. Hi. | 0:52:10 | 0:52:12 | |
'I'm meeting with his sister Jocelyn, the family spokesperson.' | 0:52:12 | 0:52:16 | |
There was something phenomenal about his winning the presidency. | 0:52:18 | 0:52:22 | |
It was because of the overwhelming votes... | 0:52:23 | 0:52:26 | |
..that he got. So it's the will of the people. | 0:52:27 | 0:52:31 | |
And why do you think that was, he got so many, though? | 0:52:31 | 0:52:34 | |
Because I think the people were tired of, of... | 0:52:34 | 0:52:37 | |
..the same things, you know? They wanted a change. | 0:52:40 | 0:52:44 | |
They wanted somebody who would say what he does. | 0:52:44 | 0:52:47 | |
There have been over 4,000 recent killings | 0:52:47 | 0:52:51 | |
under the war on drugs. | 0:52:51 | 0:52:54 | |
The extrajudicial killings. | 0:52:54 | 0:52:55 | |
Does the President want these killings to happen? | 0:52:57 | 0:53:01 | |
If I were to quote the president... | 0:53:01 | 0:53:03 | |
"If you go into drugs, and you get killed... | 0:53:04 | 0:53:08 | |
"..it's because you broke the law." | 0:53:10 | 0:53:12 | |
We all want due process. | 0:53:13 | 0:53:15 | |
We all want justice done in the right way. | 0:53:15 | 0:53:19 | |
But is there really such a thing in cases of where drugs are concerned? | 0:53:19 | 0:53:25 | |
Drug money's the biggest moneymaking that I know of. | 0:53:25 | 0:53:32 | |
You can bribe the judge. | 0:53:32 | 0:53:34 | |
So what happens? Gets dismissed. | 0:53:35 | 0:53:38 | |
I know that drugs bring all sorts of problems | 0:53:38 | 0:53:42 | |
and can destroy society and family and so on. | 0:53:42 | 0:53:46 | |
But isn't killing almost 5,000 people worse? | 0:53:46 | 0:53:50 | |
All I know is that the people who die | 0:53:50 | 0:53:54 | |
are people into the drug business. | 0:53:54 | 0:53:56 | |
This is an internal problem, the extrajudicial killings. | 0:53:56 | 0:54:00 | |
We are a democratic country. We elect a President. | 0:54:00 | 0:54:04 | |
And if they elected a President like him, | 0:54:05 | 0:54:08 | |
and that's the way they want it done, | 0:54:08 | 0:54:10 | |
that's the way it will be done. | 0:54:10 | 0:54:12 | |
'At first, Duterte said it would take him | 0:54:57 | 0:54:59 | |
'only six months to clean up the country. | 0:54:59 | 0:55:02 | |
'When that time ran out, he asked for six more.' | 0:55:04 | 0:55:08 | |
'So everyone has been caught up in the climate of impunity | 0:55:15 | 0:55:20 | |
'created by this war on drugs.' | 0:55:20 | 0:55:22 | |
# Take me out of my depths... # | 0:55:27 | 0:55:30 | |
