President Duterte should allow the impending ICC investigation into the alleged commission of crimes against humanity in the war against illegal drugs instead of blocking it, Pacquiao said. | GabrielLaluINQ
Pacquiao made a similar statement in 2018, when former Sen. Antonio Trillanes raised the possibility that over 20,000 individuals have already died in Duterte’s drug war. Pacquiao said that it appears Trillanes is too judgmental as he labeled the deaths as extrajudicial killings even before it was even investigated.
She also noted that the information suggests that vigilante-style killings were perpetrated by police officers themselves or other private individuals hired by authorities — leading to a death toll of between 12,000 to 30,000 civilians.ICC pre-trial chamber authorizes start of probe into Duterte’s drug war
