00:30At mula po sa The Hague, Netherlands, balitang hatiid ni Marise Umali.
01:00The witness said that they personally killed hundreds of people.
01:03They described their job as the DDS, with the DDS as being, quote,
01:08just to kill small criminals, petty criminals.
01:12Out of the almost 300 people that I have killed, I never actually got to kill a drug lord.
01:17This expert analysed data relating to armed encounters between the PNP and supposedly armed suspects.
01:25He compared data from before Mr Duterte's presidency to during.
01:31And based on this comparison, he found that in the first 25 months of Mr Duterte's presidency,
01:38the number of suspects killed by police increased by 590% across the Philippines.
01:46Inilatag din ni Croft ang individual criminal responsibility o pananagutan ni Duterte bilang co-perpetrator sa krimen.
01:54Una, dahil pumayag siya sa isang common plan sa pag-neutralize sa umano yung mga kriminal.
01:58Ikalawa, dahil sa pag-control nila ng mga co-perpetrators sa isang network of power sa buong bansa.
02:04Ikatlo, ang kanyang essential contribution sa mga krimen alinsunod sa tinukoy na formula.
02:09At ikaapat, na ginawa niya ito na may requisite intent.
02:12As PNP chief, Mr. De La Rosa now controlled some 180,000 police officers
02:20who, as you have heard, he directed to neutralize drug personalities.
02:27Mr La Peña now controlled 1,800 Philippine Drug Enforcement personnel.
02:34They used these subordinates as physical perpetrators to commit the crimes.
02:40Mr Aguirre, as Secretary of Justice, now had control of the National Prosecution Service.
02:47He used this control to ensure that, except for a handful of low-level perpetrators in notorious cases,
02:55the crimes were not prosecuted and a climate of impunity prevailed.
03:00A low-level police perpetrator during the presidential period
03:03was asked about the impact Mr Duterte's public speeches had on his team,
03:09including when deciding to kill someone.
03:12He responded, quote,
03:14It did have an effect on me, because it's like I was saying to myself,
03:19well, even the president, he himself is ready to do something like this, and who am I?
03:24Without Mr Duterte's essential contribution, the crimes in this case would not have been committed,
03:30or they would have been committed in a significantly different way.
03:35Ayon kay Croft, may state policy ang mga pag-atake kaya dapat makasuhan ang crimes against humanity si Duterte.
03:41Yan ang double formula o model kung saan pinapatay ang mga kriminal,
03:45bagay na nabanggit na rin daw ni Duterte noon sa kanyang talumpati.
03:49Mahikita rin daw ang naturang policy sa direktiba sa pulis siya na inilabas noong 2016
03:54at inisyo ni dating PNP Chief Bato de la Rosa.
03:57Nakasa dito ang tugon sa issue sa droga at neutralization of illegal drug personalities.
04:02As Mr Jeremy has outlined,
04:05the evidence shows that within law enforcement,
04:08neutralize meant and was understood as meaning to kill.
04:12Ang common plan daw ay in-neutralize ang mga kriminal sa pamamagitan ng karahasan.
04:16As in Davao, police and those working with them were often paid reward money per kill.
04:21Your Honors, these killings were not random.
04:24Targets were pre-identified, listed, and then subject to operations based on that list.
04:30This clearly demonstrates the systematicity of the attack.
04:34Ipinakita ng prosekusyon kung sino ang mga co-perpetrator ni Duterte sa Davao City
04:38na nadagdagan daw ng dalawa na maupo si Duterte bilang presidente.
04:42Noong Davao City Mayor pa lang siya,
04:44si Duterte raw ang nasa pinakatuktok ng kanilang hierarchy.
04:48Si Duterte at ang mga co-perpetrator daw ang may control sa polis pati na sa mga miyembro ng DDS.
04:54Sabi ng isang testigo na takot siyang di sumunod dahil si Duterte ang pinakamakapangyarihan sa Davao.
05:01Noong pangulo na siya, si Duterte pa rin ang nasa tuktok ng hierarchy.
05:04The co-perpetrators controlled the executive, they controlled the police,
05:11they controlled the Drug Enforcement Agency, the National Bureau of Investigation, and the Department of Justice.
05:19And they used this control to ensure that their subordinates carried out the plan to neutralize alleged criminals.
05:26Tinawag ni Principal Counsel ng Public Counsel for Victims Paulina Maceda
05:30ang drug war na Policy Against Poverty
05:33na nakatuong daw sa pinakamahihirap at pinakavulnerable sector.
05:37Binanggit din ni Maceda ang iba't ibang ulat ng mga international at lokal na organisasyon.
05:41Ayon sa ulat ng Human Rights Watch noong 2022,
05:45umaabot sa 6,200 ang nasa WIG.
05:48Sa ulat naman ng United Nations noong 2020,
05:51tinatayang nasa 8,663 ang bilang ng mga namatay.
05:54Ayon sa Commission on Human Rights ng Pilipinas,
05:57maaaring doble o triple pa ang aktwal na bilang kumpara sa tala ng United Nations.
06:02Lumutang din sa mga testimonya ng mga biktima at kanilang mga kaanak
06:06ang mga matitinding paglabag-umanos sa karapatang pantao,
06:10kabilangan torture, hindi makataong pagtrato,
06:13panggagahasa, pambubugbog, pananampal, electrocution,
06:17at mga bantapaumanos sa buhay.
06:19Mr. Duterte's drug war campaign targeted the very humanity of the victims,
06:26of their families, and of their communities.
06:30Inalisan kami ng dangal.
06:32We were stripped of our dignity.
06:35Mr. Duterte publicly dehumanized the victims of his anti-drug campaign.
06:41This dehumanization of the victims was used to justify their eventual murders.
06:50These public speeches of Mr. Duterte's served to condition the Filipino people
06:56on the excuse for the murder of the victims.
07:00This extreme trauma is a daily struggle for the surviving family members.
07:06As they still live every day in the scene of the crime, their homes.
07:15Thus, Mr. Duterte's anti-drug campaign brought about the breakdown of the families of the murdered victims.
07:27Mr. Duterte's anti-drug campaign destroyed the trust in the close-knit communities of the murdered tokhang victims
07:37and ultimately destroyed the social fabric of these communities.
07:44Mula rito sa The Hague, Netherlands, Paris, umali na babalita para sa GMA Integrated News.
