Philippine National Police spokesperson S/Supt. Dionardo Carlos clarifies statistics on Pres. Rody Duterte's War on Narcopolitics.
Thinking Pinoy - RJ Nieto: We all know that there's only one news outlet (that reports 7000 EJKs), and it's Rappler.com. What has the PNP done to rectify that report?
S/Supt. Carlos: When we saw it after the 1st 3 months (of the Duterte administration), we wrote to Rappler so they can correct it and they did nothing.
TP: When did you write to them?
S/Supt. Carlos: September 2016...
We saw that the (Rappler) article (shows figures) different (from what we provided), and they claim that the data comes from the PNP... Whenever I give them updates, I myself insert an accompanying note stating "Deaths Under Investigation are not automatically extrajudicial killings and these are crimes of murder and/or homicide (that are) still being investigated (on)." How can they say differently when clearly, every time that I release the data, we put something like that (a note) there?
