VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Pagpayag ni Dela Rosa na bitayin dahil sa mga pagpatay na may kinalaman sa droga walang basehan

Bilang tugon sa mga natuklasan kamakailan ni forensic pathology expert Dr. Raquel Fortun na nakadiskubre ng mga hindi pagkakatugma sa mga ulat sa autopsy ng mga biktima ng drug war, sinabi ni Sen. Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa na handa siyang bitayin kung mahatulan siya ng lokal na hukuman para sa anumang maling gawain. Wala itong basehan.

VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Dela Rosa’s willingness to be hanged over drug-related killings has no basis

By VERA Files | Feb 08, 2023 10:05 AM

A Philippine court cannot sentence him to hanging because the country already outlawed the death penalty on June 24, 2006 when then-president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo signed Republic Act 9346. This outlawed capital punishment in the country, which was previously allowed and carried out through lethal injection.

VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Pahayag ni Dela Rosa sa prinsipyo ng complementarity ng ICC nakaliligaw

By VERA Files | Feb 07, 2023 3:09 PM

Iginiit ni Senador Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa, dating hepe ng Philippine National Police (PNP), na ang imbestigasyon ng International Criminal Court (ICC) sa mga pagpatay na may kinalaman sa droga sa ilalim ng administrasyong Duterte ay lumalabag sa complementarity principle ng Rome Statute. Ito ay nakaliligaw.

VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Dela Rosa’s statement on ICC complementarity principle is misleading

By VERA Files | Feb 07, 2023 3:09 PM

In pursuing its own investigation, the ICC is going after top state officials who may be responsible for crimes against humanity but are not being investigated by the Philippines. This is where the principle of complementarity is violated and the justification for the resumption of the ICC’s drug war probe.

VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Hamon ni Remulla sa ICC na ipakita ang ‘pattern’ ng mga pagpatay sa giyera sa droga nangangailangan ng konteksto

By VERA Files | Feb 07, 2023 2:30 PM

Hinamon ni Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla ang International Criminal Court (ICC) na ipakita sa gobyerno ng Pilipinas ang “pattern” ng umano’y state-sponsored killings sa ilalim ng war on drugs ng administrasyong Duterte. Kulang ito sa konteksto.

By VERA Files | Dec 05, 2022 11:20 AM

Sa loob ng apat na taon, nagbago ang pananaw ni Sen. Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa tungkol sa pagtrato sa mga illegal drug offender. Bilang director-general ng Bureau of Corrections (BuCor), sinuportahan niya ang parusang kamatayan para sa lahat ng mga nagkasala kaugnay ng ilegal na droga hanggang kanyang iminungkahi ang rehabilitasyon para sa mga gumagamit. Ngayon, sinabi ng dating Philippine National Police (PNP) chief na “nagdadalawang isip” siya tungkol sa sarili niyang panukala.
