Statement of CHR spokesperson, Atty. Jacqueline Ann de Guia, on the SWS survey reflecting the views of Filipinos on the investigation of international groups on drug-related killings involving the police

The Commission on Human Rights welcomes the survey results released by the Social Weather Stations (SWS) noting that more than half of Filipinos (60%) believe that the government should not block the investigation of international groups on drug-related killings involving the police. The result echoes the sentiments of the Commission in ensuring State participation and show that it is willing to hold perpetrator’s account.

As such surveys represent the voice of the people, we hope the government sees this as an opportunity to correct policies that curtail the right to life and improve human rights situation in the country. In the interest of finding the truth and seeking justice, the Commission will continue to extend its hand in partnership with the government. This is to lessen and answer concerns of alleged human rights violations during police operations. And if the government has nothing to hide, we appeal once again to allow independent investigations in the country.

Let the survey results be a guiding light for the government to do better in maintaining the rights of the people they swore to protect. The Commission on the other hand, through its mandate, will continue to monitor State compliance to the fulfilment of the rights and dignity of everyone. ###
