Akbayan Partylist condemns President Rodrigo Duterte\u2019s denial of his policy to kill under the War on Drugs.<\/p>\n

Duterte, in a press conference on September 5, attacked Akbayan Senator Risa Hontiveros after her call-out against PNP\u2019s policy to kill under his War on Drugs. Duterte said: \u201cDoes the killing of two people make a policy? Ang bobo naman niyan\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Duterte, the killings have reached 8,000 under your regime. This proves your policy to kill is real,\u201d Akbayan President Machris Cabreros said.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Duterte\u2019s orders to kill are undeniable as he\u00a0has made this public in many occasions even in front of the Chief PNP. The attempt of denying is futile. He\u2019s basically lying through his teeth,\u201d Akbayan President Machris Cabreros said.
\nCabreros said that Duterte\u2019s policy to kill has already corrupted the police force, using his War on Drugs to kill, threaten or extort people.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Duterte even admitted this when he called the police force \u2018corrupt to the core\u2019 after the death of foreigner Jee Ick Joo under Bato\u2019s watch. The list of victims pile up and it all points to Duterte\u2019s policy to kill.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cabreros said that even before the Senate can close the probe of 17-year-old Kian Delos Santos\u2019 slay, PNP has taken another victim with UP freshman Carl Angelo Arnaiz who was reportedly tortured and accused of possessing illegal drugs on August 18.<\/p>\n

\u201cPNP\u2019s policy to kill is now targeting the young and the poor,\u201d Cabreros added. \u201cInstead of fighting criminals, it seems that our police have joined their ranks and are out murdering our children.\u201d
\nAkbayan dares President Duterte to heed the call of human rights groups to cease all statements encouraging the policy to kill in police operations. Oplan Double Barrel and all operations using excessive force should be suspended until human rights abuses are answered to. PNP should open up for independent investigations on reports of paid killings.<\/p>\n
