The House quad committee (quadcom), which has uncovered gruesome information in its investigation of EJKs, is now into tracing the money trail that financed former president Rodrigo Duterte’s brutal war on drugs.It would be helpful for the quadcom to retrieve the interviews given by self-confessed Duterte Death Squad leader Arturo Lascañas and member Edgar Matobato.
It was a plan that was hatched just when the then police hitman of the Davao Death Squad Arturo Lascañas was on the verge of confessing his sins to the Filipino people.
Away from the country for seven years now, Lascañas received a very unusual communication on December 23, 2022 from Lyon, France. It was from the Interpol. It said that the General Secretariat of the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) certified that Lascañas was not the subject of an Interpol notice or diffusion.
“Sara advised abduction and burial at Laud Quarry” - Arturo Lascañas
“Polong was the mastermind in the smuggling of shabu in the Port of Davao, and I was one of his conduits or front men ” - Arturo Lascañas
Lascañas reveals plots to kill De Lima and Fr. Lamata, the real reason Parojinog and members of his family were murdered and Duterte’s instruction to rape women drug suspects.
To be a major assassin in the Davao Death Squad, Rodrigo Duterte insisted on one requirement: omerta.
For his last hurrah in office, Rodrigo Duterte had the privilege of spending a total of P4.5 billion in confidential and intelligence funds. How he spent that colossal amount will never be known.
In the business of death, self-confessed hitman Arturo Lascañas had reaped a ghastly reward: He became a “ghost” employee of the Davao City Hall, whose paycheck got a boost from the salaries of other “ghost” employees.
Watching legislative hearings is bad for the health. You develop superiority complex and that’s not healthy.
