    Pusong bato sa usapin ng drug war

    By Christian Esguerra  |  Nov 26, 2022 1:46 PM

    Sana noon pa ganito ang pag-iisip ni Sen. Bato. Hindi sana namatay ‘yung libo-libong  “nanlaban” kuno.

    VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Sen. Bato Dela Rosa falsely claims that lethal injection is the ‘universally accepted mode’ of death penalty

    By VERA Files  |  Aug 04, 2022 11:02 PM

    In pushing for a bill that reinstates the death penalty for large-scale illegal drug trafficking, Sen. Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa claimed that lethal injection is the “universally accepted” method of capital punishment. This is wrong.

    VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Sen. Bato Dela Rosa hindi totoo ang sinabi na ang lethal injection ay ang ‘universally accepted mode’ ng parusang kamatayan

    By VERA Files  |  Aug 04, 2022 11:02 PM

    Sa pagsusulong ng panukalang batas na magbabalik ng parusang kamatayan para sa malakihang ilegal na trafficking ng droga, sinabi ni Sen. Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa na ang lethal injection ay ang “universally accepted” na paraan ng parusang kamatayan. Mali ito.

    The PNP Chiefs’ Scorecard on the War on Drugs; “Bato” Tops in the Number of Kills

    By Nixcharl C. Noriega and Jamaica Jian G. Gacoscosim  |  Feb 07, 2021 9:28 AM

    On January 31, 2021, Sen. Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa told the press that he was optimistic he will soon have a new US visa. A year earlier, he confirmed to the media that his US visa was canceled. Neither he nor the US embassy in Manila said why and when it happened. The senator surmised that his role in Pres. Rodrigo Duterte’s drug war may have been the reason behind it.

    Tokhang officials’ nightmare comes true

    By Ellen T. Tordesillas  |  Jan 26, 2020 2:30 PM

    The cancellation by the United States government of Sen. Ronald “Bato” de la Rosa’s visa is a preview of what’s in store for police officials involved in President Duterte’s brutal drug war that has claimed the lives of at least 20,000 through a reprehensible practice of extrajudicial killing (EJK).

    By VERA FILES  |  Nov 30, 2018 5:59 PM

    Sa isang pakikipanayam sa media, dalawang hindi suportadong pahayag tungkol sa kayamanan ni Presidente Rodrigo Duterte at mga tagasuporta noong eleksyon ng 2016 ang pinakawalan ni dating hepe ng Bureau of Corrections at kandidato sa pagka-senador Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa.

    By VERA Files  |  Oct 16, 2017 10:03 PM

    Inulit ang maling pahayag na unang ginawa ni Foreign Affairs Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano, si Police Chief Ronald Dela Rosa naman ang nagbigay ng depinisyon ng extrajudicial killings (EJKs) sa pamamagitan ng di-wastong pag gamit ng administrative order ni Benigno S. Aquino III.

    VERA FILES FACT CHECK: PNP Chief Dela Rosa pinaliit ang datos ng giyera laban sa droga

    By VERA FILES  |  Sep 05, 2017 7:07 PM

    Ang bilang ni Dela Rosa ay hindi tumutugma sa tila mga “tunay na numero” kaugnay ng giyera laban sa droga na inilathala ng mismong PNP, sa sarili nitong website.
