KIAN

By Jose Alejandrino

It is understandable that people get upset when a 17-year old high school kid gets killed during a drug bust by the police.

What is not understandable is why the same won't wait for the investigation of the circumstances that led to the boy's death. They have already reached a conclusion based on mere speculations of what happened, that it was a pure rubout by rogue cops. This is what Robredo, Hontiveros, et al - members of the LP Opposition - have done to discredit President Duterte and PNP chief Bato, which leads me to believe they have a deeper political agenda and are exploiting the tragedy of Kian to advance that agenda.

The PNP has already relieved the three policemen involved pending an investigation. The PNP is conducting its investigation. If there was no political agenda behind the killing, a normal person would await the results of the investigation, and, once it is made available, to ask questions about its findings if they are not satisfied by the answers. Why don't they wait for the report? Is it because they want to use the killing as a platform to gain international media attention to stop Duterte's drug war which the liberals have been opposed to and would like the legalization, decriminalization and liberalization of drugs that George Soros and Guy Maurice Verhofstadt have been advocating.

The local LP is no more than a lackey of liberals abroad. It is composed of mercenaries who pretend to champion the poor whereas in fact they are willing accomplices to the physical and mental harm which shabu has caused to millions of our youth.

There are many questions to resolve. Was the 17-year old Kian a runner of drugs? What was he doing on the street during curfew hours when he was supposed to be at home studying for a test the following day? Why did his parents allow him out? If he was a runner, did the police find evidence of shabu in his possession? Why didn't they just simply stop and arrest the young boy? Hopefully, all the answers will be given in the police report.

Other critics ask why the PNP does not focus more on druglords than on pushers. The answer is simple. The big druglords are outside the country. What we have here at home are their paid surrogates. To break the power of druglords you have to break their distribution network, and this is why the police is targeting the pushers who sell shabu.

As usual, Leni Robredo jumped the gun without waiting to know what really happened. Her denunciations show drama more than responsibility.
