00:00Sa ikalawang araw ng confirmation of charges hearing sa kaso ni dating Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte,
00:05binahagi ng kampo ng mga biktimang anilang matinding trauma at pang-aabusong dinanas nila ng masaksya ng pagpatay sa kanilang
00:13mga kaanak noong drug war.
00:15Bula sa The Hague, Netherlands, may unang balita live, ang kasama natin si Maris Umali.

01:22and the U.S. was 6,200.
01:24The U.S. was reported in the United Nations in 2020,
01:28the U.S. was 8,663 were killed.
01:33According to the Commission on Human Rights of the Philippines,
01:35it's a double or triple count of the U.S.
01:42The U.S. was reported in the testimony of the victims and their children
01:45were killed by the U.S.
01:53The U.S. was reported by the U.S. was reported by the U.S.
01:59and the U.S. was reported in the U.S.
01:59It's a title of the U.S.
02:01Atty. Gilbert Andres from CLRV.
02:06Mr. Duterte's drug war campaign
02:09targeted the very humanity of the victims,
02:12of their families and of their communities.
02:17Inalisan kami ng dangal. We were stripped of our dignity.
02:22Mr. Duterte publicly dehumanized the victims of his anti-drug campaign.
02:29This dehumanization of the victims was used to justify their eventual murders.
02:37These public speeches of Mr. Duterte served to condition the Filipino people
02:43on the excuse for the murder of the victims.
02:47This extreme trauma is a daily struggle for the surviving family members.
02:54As they still live every day in the scene of the crime, their homes.
03:02Thus, Mr. Duterte's anti-drug campaign brought about the breakdown of the families of the murdered victims.
03:14Mr. Duterte's anti-drug campaign destroyed the trust in the close-knit communities of the murdered tokhang victims
03:25and ultimately destroyed the social fabric of these communities.
03:35Igan sumetro naman sa counts 2 at 3 ng Kasong Crimes Against Humanity ang mga ebedensyang ipinresinta
03:44ng prosekusyon ganun din ng CLRV sa ikalawang araw ng confirmation of charges hearing.
03:51Narito po ang kabuan ng aking ulat.
03:56Hindi pa rin dumalo si dating Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte sa ikalawang araw ng kanyang confirmation of charges
04:02sa The Hague, Netherlands.
04:04Ay tinuloy ng prosekusyon ng submission on merits o pagpresinta ng mga basehan
04:08kung bakit dapat matuloy sa paglilitis ang mga asunto laban kay Duterte na crimes against humanity.
04:14Inilatag ni trial lawyer Edward Jeremy ang sa count 2 at 3 na sakop ang halos 60 pagpatay
04:21at tangkang pagpatay mula 2016 hanggang 2018 sa administrasyon ni Duterte.
04:26Tinukoy ng prosekusyon ang memo ni Nooy PNP Chief Bato de la Rosa na Oplan Double Barrel
04:31para in-neutralize ang mga kriminal na ayon sa isang witness ay nangangahulugang patayin.
04:37Tinawag na high value targets ang labing apat sa mga biktima dahil sa pagkakasangkot umano
04:42sa drug manufacturing o mga drug syndicates.
04:45Naroon daw sila sa isang listahan na tinawag na PRRD list
04:49at marami raw sa mga nasa listahan na patay.
04:52This list was used by the police in their operations.
04:56And if you are in the list, you will be the subject for police operations.
05:02And most of the time, the people on the list are killed.
05:06So basically, the PRRD list is a dead list.
05:11And Mr. Duterte publicly paraded this PRRD list on multiple occasions.
05:16Sabi ng prosekusyon may patagong reward system o pabuya para sa mga polis
05:21sa kada mapapatay nilang high value target.
05:24Kasama raw dito ang pangako ni Duterte na poprotektahan niya ang mga polis at militar
05:29na magsasagawa ng pagpatay.
05:31For as long as there is that power to pardon sa konstitusyon,
05:37iyan ang weapon ko against crime.
05:42Magmasakir kayo ng isandaan, isandaan rin kayo,
05:48hindi pardon lahat eh.
05:51Restored to full political and civil rights plus a promotion to vote.
05:59Kasama sa mga pinaslang sinadating Albuera Leyte Mayor Orlando Espinosa Sr.
06:05Atra Ulya, na pinatay habang nasa kustudiya ng Leyte sa provincial jail,
06:09sa Baybalite.
06:10Ayong mayor ng Albuera,
06:13mabuti nakaabot siya doon kay Bato na
06:18pinahanap ko, shoot on sight,
06:21parang aso.
06:22Ang tingin ko talaga sa inyo,
06:25kayo, parang aso.
06:27According to the PMP's official narrative of this incident,
06:31there was a shootout between Espinosa and Yap,
06:34and officers who attempted to serve search warrants on them while in prison.
06:41By contrast, the evidence demonstrates, as set out in paragraphs 107 to 110 of our brief,
06:49that these men were murdered in their prison cells in a coordinated operation involving various state agents.
06:57CCTV was disabled,
07:00guns were planted in their cells,
07:03rewards were paid.
07:06As we see on the slide now on our screens, tab 48 of our list of materials,
07:13both Mr. Espinosa and Mr. Yap were included in the PRRD list.
07:20Marami rin daw sa mga pinaslang ay lower level alleged criminals sa tinawag na barangay clearance operations.
07:26Sa ilalim ng count 3,
07:28tinukoy ang 43 murder at 3 attempted murder sa pagitan ng July 2016 at September 2018.
07:34Ang nakababahala, meron ditong mga minorde edad, gaya ni Kian De Los Santos at dalawang iba pa.
07:41During 2018, on two separate occasions, the police detained a child aged around 14 or 15 years old.
07:54On each occasion, the police wrapped the child's head in packing tape so no one could hear them scream,
08:01and then strangled the child to death with wire.
08:06It's difficult to imagine a more terrifying end to two lives that had barely even begun.
08:15And these murdered children were then sold to funeral homes,
08:19who profited from their bodies, as explained in paragraphs 142 and 150 of our brief.
08:41Ipinakita rin si Duterte nang magsalita siya sa Tondo Maynila noong 2016 kung saan inutusan niya umano ang mga tao
08:47na pumatay.
08:48Kung anak niya, ikaw ang pumatay. Kung anak niyang adik, kayo ang pumatay para hindi masyado masakit.
08:58This is the president of the Philippines, the commander-in-chief, the most powerful man in the Philippines.
09:07He's pointing directly at the crowd, and he is telling them to kill someone else's child.
09:17Kill them not because they are an alleged drug lord, not even an alleged criminal, but simply because they may
09:24have an addiction to drugs.
09:26Ayon sa kinatawa ng mga drug war victim na si Paulina Maceda, anti-narget sa drug war ay yung mga
09:33galing sa mahihirap na komunidad.
09:35Sa mga ganito raw komunidad, nagiging coping mechanism ng ilan ang syabok dahil sa hirap ng buhay.
09:40Patterns of drug use do not arise in a vacuum. They reflect deeper systemic inequalities and long-standing patterns of
09:50socio-economic marginalization.
09:53Rather than addressing the root causes of drug addiction, the Duterte administration framed the issue as a criminal one, focusing
10:01on punitive enforcement over social responses.
10:06Mr. Duterte's response was a selective, violent crackdown of the most vulnerable, recasting condition of marginalization as grounds for criminal
10:17targeting, rather as manifestations of social injustice.
10:22Igan, mula naman sa kinalalagyan natin o yung kinauupuan natin sa court gallery ay nakita natin ang ilan sa mga
10:31kaanak ng mga biktima na naluha dahil nga sa muli nilang naalala yung trauma at yung sakit matapos marinig yung
10:43mga ebedensyang inilatag ng prosekusyon pati na rin ng CLRV.
10:48Kabilang po rito sa mga kaanak ng mga biktima nga ito, si Lori Apasco na namatayan ng dalawang anak at
10:55si Shira Escudero na namatayan naman ng kapatid.
10:59Pero ayon sa kanila, actually bawal daw na umiyak sa loob ng court gallery kaya talagang pati yung pag-iyak
11:07na lamang na yun ay kailangan pa nilang pigilan.
11:11Igan?
11:15Igan, mauna ka sa mga balita, magsubscribe na sa GMA Integrated News sa YouTube para sa iba-ibang ulat sa
11:22ating bansa.
