00:00Former Senator Laila Delima also faced a quadcom in the first instance.

00:04She faced the hearing of retired police colonel Jovi Espinido,

00:08who was one of the people who were involved in the Bilibid drug trade.

00:12Jonathan Andal has the first news.

00:18Up to Php 15,000 per person who will be killed,

00:22that's what is obtained under the reward system of DBS or Davao Death Squad

00:27that started in the 80s.

00:29That's what former Senator Laila Delima said when she faced the Quad Committee of the Camera

00:33based on their investigation when she was the chief of the Commission on Human Rights.

00:57The so-called MRRD,

00:59who is Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte,

01:02and the fund came from the Intel Funds of the Office of the Mayor.

01:06Delima said that this Davao model was the one that led to the drug war

01:10during the Duterte administration,

01:12which was led by the former police officer and former PCSO General Manager Ruina Garmas in the Quad Committee.

01:17We are trying to get Duterte's money,

01:20but he has already denied that there is a reward system in the war on drugs.

01:24In Delima's first face in the Quad Committee,

01:26she mentioned what she faced in the House hearings of 2016.

01:30I attended this hearing with a deep sense of irony.

01:33I also attended the drug war of Duterte.

01:37And I feel sorry that this has already been stopped.

01:41But in spite of the bad news,

01:44no one listened to me,

01:46especially since we have a majority of Senators and Congressmen.

01:50Delima faced the retired police colonel Jovi Espinido

01:55who used to support her.

01:57Just like another person who supported Delima,

01:59Curwin Espinoza,

02:01Espinido turned against him.

02:02Are you retracting all the testimonies that you gave against Senator Delima

02:08during that Senate investigation?

02:11Yes, Your Honor.

02:12There's also a testimony coming from Curwin Espinoza

02:17that you and him were instructed to talk with each other

02:21to make sure that your testimonies against Senator Delima

02:25is consistent.

02:28Do you confirm this?

02:30Yes or no?

02:32I confirm.

02:34Espinoza first said that Senator Bato de la Rosa

02:37ordered Delima to be detained in the Belibid drug trade,

02:41which was denied by de la Rosa.

02:43Meanwhile, Espinoza lied.

02:45The Senator has not yet given a statement.

02:47Former President Duterte was also invited to the Quad Committee hearings.

02:50But he said that he won't be able to go

02:52because he feels bad.

02:54Some congressmen want a medical certificate as proof.

02:57No medical certificate confirming that indeed

03:00the former president will be excused

03:03in today's hearing because of his medical situation.

03:07We are not giving him special treatment.

03:12But in this particular case,

03:14in deference to him being the former president,

03:17I would like to ask for your understanding

03:21to extend a little bit of the courtesy that is due to him.

03:25A congressman wants the former president

03:27to be cited in contempt

03:29if he does not attend the next hearing.

03:32A lot of people say that if he is not under oath

03:35or if he is not in the right place,

03:37but when he is called for a formal hearing,

03:40both sides are arguing

03:42and there are a lot of reasons

03:45for him not to attend

03:47and answer our questions properly.

03:51In his letter to the Quad Committee,

03:53the former president's camp said

03:55that he is ready to attend the hearings

03:57after November 1.

03:59Duterte is also one of those invited

04:01to the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee hearings

04:03about the drug war on Monday.

04:05Delima, Espinosa, Espinido,

04:07retired police colonel Regina Garma,

04:09former NAPALCOM commissioner Edilberto Leonardo,

04:12and the families of the victims were also invited.

04:14In his letter to De La Rosa,

04:16the former president told him

04:18that he will go to the Senate election

04:20no matter who leads it.

04:22Senate Minority Leader Coco Pimentel

04:24was asked to preside over the hearings.

04:26Duterte's former ally,

04:28but now in another faction of the PDP Laban.

04:30Our personal relationships are blurred.

04:32All of that is blurred.

04:34What we will do is follow the evidence.

04:36Senate President Chiza Escudero said

04:38that the former president

04:40will give a whole speech.

04:42There is no reason for Senator De La Rosa

04:44and Senator Bong Go to take indefinite leaves.

04:46He called a group of fellow countrymen

04:48to the two senators,

04:50especially PNP chief De La Rosa

04:52during the start of the drug war.

04:54Go is the special assistant to the president

04:56during the Duterte admin.

04:58Despite De La Rosa will not leave,

05:00he said he needs to confront

05:02the liars.

05:04GMA Integrated News is still trying

05:06to get a witness.

05:08Pimentel said it will not affect

05:11even if De La Rosa and Go are there.

05:13This is the first news.

05:15Jonathan Andal for GMA Integrated News.
