00:00Senator Ronald Bato De La Rosa says he plans to open a probe into former President Rodrigo

00:05Duterte's drug war, which he himself implemented.

00:09This after retired police colonel Roina Garma directly implicated Duterte in drug war killings

00:14during a hearing by the House Quad Committee.

00:16As Duterte's first police chief, De La Rosa authorized and oversaw the drug war's first

00:21salvo.

00:22He says there's a better chance of Duterte attending his probe because the former president

00:26is more comfortable with the Senate than with the House.

00:29Besides De La Rosa, Duterte's closest aide Bong Go is also a senator, and he earlier

00:34said he would launch a Senate probe into the drug war.

00:37De La Rosa is under investigation by the International Criminal Court for alleged crimes against

00:41humanity in the drug war and in other extrajudicial killings in Davao City when Duterte was mayor.
