00:00The House Quad Committee will investigate if the intelligence funds of former President Rodrigo Duterte were used for war on drugs.
00:07This was followed by the revelation of retired police colonel Ruyna Garma that the money came from Malacanang.
00:14This is the news of Jonathan Andal.
00:19The alleged money that was used for war on drugs in the term of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:27What the House Quad Committee wants to know is where the money came from.
00:31According to one of the chairmen of the committee, it was possibly taken from the intelligence funds of Duterte.
00:37That's why the investigation of the intel fund of the former president came out.
00:40Because Ruyna Garma told us that the money came from Malacanang.
00:48So we need to find out where the money came from.
00:52And we're pretty sure that it came from the intel fund.
00:55The Quad Committee will call the COA or Commission on Audit to investigate the intelligence funds of Duterte in his administration.
01:02We're looking at how the money came out.
01:06Because in the first two months, we saw a sudden increase.
01:12From the former president Pinoy, the intel fund suddenly increased.
01:16From a certain month, it seems like a lot of money was used.
01:24According to the GMA Integrated News Research,
01:26500 million pesos were the confidential and intelligence funds of former President Noynoy Aquino in 2016.
01:33They were divided by Duterte.
01:36When the Duterte administration made the budget for 2017 to 2019,
01:41the confidential and intel funds increased by 5 times or 2.5 billion pesos.
01:46These funds increased by 4.5 billion pesos from 2019 to 2022.
01:52The confidential and intel funds of Malacanang were included in the COA audit.
01:56But the details of the findings were not disclosed to the public because of its possible effect on national security.
02:01That's why Fernandez thinks it's hard for them to investigate the intel funds of the former president.
02:07He said they can make a law based on their investigation.
02:11I think it's high time that we have to strengthen the policy of our COA.
02:16There's an abusive intent in using the intel fund to kill people and pay those who perpetrate it.
02:26Then I think we need to tighten up the liquidation.
02:33The PNP will investigate the so-called cold cases or murder cases of local officials in the context of the drug war.
02:41That's according to the revelation of former police colonel Ruyina Garma
02:44that there were police officers involved in the murder of Tanawan City Mayor Antonio Halili in 2018.
02:50We will look into who were involved, particularly the elected officials and other well-known personalities
03:01who died during the height of the anti-drug campaign during the time of the previous administration.
03:07The PNP is also investigating the so-called police official named Garma who was involved in the murder of Halili.
03:13He is Police Captain Kenneth Albotra who is located in Police Regional Office 7 in Central Visayas.
03:18Kenneth Albotra is the one who was interviewed by GMA Integrated News saying that Garma's allegation is not true.
03:24To be fair to him, although he's saying that he's not the one who's being interrogated,
03:29but definitely he will be questioned with respect to this case.
03:35Jonathan Andal is the reporter for GMA Integrated News.
