Sa pagkakaalam nyo, ano po ba yung punot dulo ng galit, puot o gigil sa inyo ni former President Duterte?
00:14.7
It dates back doon sa CHR days, in 2009, when I initiated the investigation into the DBS killings, CHR.
00:26.4
Na pumunta kami sa Davao, nagkanda kami ng series of public inquiries there into the DBS killings, which are attributed to him as the, again, the mastermind of those killings.
00:46.7
Now, which were the subject of the report of then UN Special Rapporteur for Human Rights, Philip Alston.
00:56.4
There was also the report of Human Rights Watch.
00:59.9
So, nung nabasa ko yung mga reports na yun, tapos pinag-validate ko rin doon sa local office ng CHR, we decided to conduct a public inquiry, a series of public inquiry.
01:12.5
And in fact, the very first resource person that we summoned was then Mayor Rodrigo Duterte.
01:20.4
And in that public hearing, there was really an intense exchange.
01:25.7
Between the two of us, I was calling him out for his failure to act on those unresolved killings of petty criminals, which were attributed to the so-called Davao Death Squad.
01:43.8
So, nagsimula doon, and when I became a senator, and he became the president, malay ko ba na magiging presidente siya?
01:55.7
Malay ko ba na magiging senadora ko in 2016?
02:00.0
And inulit na naman nila yung pinaggagawa nila doon.
02:05.2
And I wanted to do something right away.
02:07.7
So, sa July pa lang noon, in 2016, kakaupo pa lang namin, I immediately filed a resolution seeking for a Senate inquiry under my committee, Committee on Justice.
02:25.7
And then, human rights.
02:27.2
In fact, some of my colleagues there then, and some friends, saka yung mga schoolmates ko rin sa San Beda, were dissuading me, were discouraging me from doing it.
02:38.8
Sabi nila, it's too early. Magagalit talaga yan sa'yo.
02:43.5
And, you know, it's too early, it's so popular, and talagang babalikan ka niyan.
02:50.8
Sabi ko naman, should I wait for more killings?
02:55.7
For more, for the figures to rise?
02:59.7
Because by then, I think it was a little more than 500 na yung mga naging biktima ng mga EJKs.
03:09.9
Because it was almost daily killings.
03:12.2
So, pag-umpisa pa lang, ay nagsimula na kaagad.
03:16.3
And I immediately saw that it was a replication of the DDS killings.
03:24.1
Tinan-sport lang niya sa Metro Manila and other parts of the country.
03:30.1
So, I said, I cannot wait for more killings to happen before I could act as the chairperson of the committee,
03:38.0
especially so that I am a human rights advocate.
03:42.1
And I used to handle cases like this sa CHR.
03:48.1
So, final ko yun.
03:49.4
Lalo siya nag-alit.
03:54.1
pinatalsik nila ako as chairperson of the Committee on Justice and Human Rights.
04:00.6
And sinimulan na nga nila akong siraan directly by the President,
04:07.6
almost on a daily basis also.
04:09.8
Tapos sinimulan na rin yung hearings na yun before the House Committee,
04:16.8
the witch hunt, the kangaroo court, the vilification.
04:24.1
It's all about vengefulness.
04:27.9
Sobra lang yung naging galit nung dating Pangulo.
04:32.3
Dahil I dared investigate him.
04:35.1
Lalo na nun sa Davao.
04:36.2
Hindi niya akalain somebody from Manila and a lady at that or a woman at that
04:43.8
calling me out in his own territory.
04:47.8
That is his kingdom, Davao.
04:49.7
And then pinuntahan ko siya.
04:52.3
And then nagharap kami doon.
04:54.1
Nagdebate kami doon, so he could not take it.
05:01.0
So, kilim-kip niya yun, hindi niya nakalimutan, hindi ako napatawad.
05:06.6
And so, that was the chance when I became a senator.
05:13.1
And as I said, well, kakita niyo naman yun dahil nga inimbestigahan ko na naman siya.
05:18.9
And so, that's it.
05:24.1
Hindi na niya pinalampas.
