MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Malacanang does not consider United Nations special rapporteur on extrajudicial killings Agnes Callamard \u2018persona non grata\u2019 despite its opposition for her to investigate the Philippines\u2019drug war.<\/p>\n

In a press briefing in Tarlac Friday, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque maintained though that Callamard has no more credibility to investigate since she has concluded that the Philippines\u2019 war on drugs would worsen the problem.<\/p>\n

Callamard made the comment when she visited the Philippines in May 2017 at the invitation of a group critical of President Rodrigo R. Duterte.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy would she be welcomed to investigate here when she had already made (a) conclusion without investigation?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why she is not welcome. She should go to other countries that will accept her,\u201d Roque said.<\/p>\n

Roque, a presidential adviser on human rights, even gave Callamard a failing mark on her credibility as special rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions at the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR).<\/p>\n

\u201cPero itong si Callamard po kung bibigyan mo ng grado pagdating doon sa puwede ba siyang pagkatiwalaan, bagsak! Singko, singko ang grade! Hindi po siya pinagkakatiwalaan; at dagok po iyan hindi lang sa kaniyang propesyunal na standing, sa kaniyang pagkatao na rin (If I give Callamard a grade on whether she can be trusted, she failed! Five, her grade is five. She cannot be trusted, and that\u2019s a blow not only to her professional standing but to her personality as well),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Roque had earlier said that if the UN would send a special rapporteur, \u201cit must be someone credible, someone who is an authority in the field that they seek to investigate and must be objective and unbiased\u201d.<\/p>\n

On Duterte\u2019s order to policemen not to cooperate with the UN rapporteur, Roque said the President might be referring to Callamard.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cSo maybe if there is another special rapporteur, they can (cooperate),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Roque confirmed during the press conference that the government is looking into the money trail of illegal drugs sold by drug syndicates in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cDefinitely! We are using our anti-money laundering law to ensure that drug lords do not benefit from their illegal drug trade.<\/p>\n
