THE Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on Friday it will press charges for crimes against humanity and violations of international humanitarian law against those allegedly responsible for extrajudicial killings (EJKs) during the Duterte administration’s war on drugs.
Justice Undersecretary Jesse Andres said the DOJ had launched its own investigation into EJK allegations through the National Prosecution Service, even before the House of Representatives’ Quad Committee started its hearings.
