MANILA (Reuters) – The Philippines Department of Justice (DOJ) will review thousands of killings in the government’s bloody war on drugs, its chief said on Wednesday, after releasing details of a first batch of cases that it said pointed to abuse by police.
“Time and resources permitting, the DOJ will review these thousands of other cases too,” Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra told Reuters.
