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

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

    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: Zubiri mali ang sinabing walang mga pagpatay na may kinalaman sa droga sa ilalim ng Marcos admin

    By VERA Files  |  Nov 16, 2022 2:51 PM

    Pinabubulaanan ang ulat ng komite ng United Nations (UN) tungkol sa pagpapatuloy ng extrajudicial killings sa Pilipinas, sinabi ni Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri na wala siyang narinig o nakikitang anumang pagpatay, partikular sa mga hinihinalang pusher ng droga, sa ilalim ng bagong administrasyon.

    By VERA Files  |  Nov 16, 2022 2:51 PM

    Contrary to Zubiri’s claim, the Philippine National Police reported on Nov. 14 that 46 deaths occurred in 18,505 anti-drug operations since the Marcos administration assumed power on June 30. The police claimed the 46 individuals killed were suspects who resisted arrest.

    By VERA Files  |  Oct 28, 2022 3:57 PM

    An image circulating on Facebook (FB) claims President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos named Department of Health (DOH) Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire as the new head of the Philippine National Police (PNP).  This is false and seems to mock the recent appointment of a former police chief as health undersecretary. The image appeared on Oct. 24 and […]

    By VERA Files  |  Sep 13, 2022 8:35 PM

    Updating on the status of the implementation of the policy requiring law enforcers to wear body cameras during police operations, Interior Secretary Benjamin “Benhur” Abalos Jr. said it is “mandated by law.” This needs context.

    A failure of intelligence

    By Tita C. Valderama  |  Mar 15, 2021 12:34 PM

    The legal profession in the country is under siege. Lawyers smell trouble in the recent move by the Philippine National Police (PNP) to secure from the courts a list of their colleagues, who are representing activists.
