29 Jan 2017 Jahr - War on drugs suspended

Beschreibung:

President Duterte orders the Philippine National Police to suspend its antidrug operations, admitting in a press conference that the police force was "rotten to the core." Four days later, the National Bureau of Investigation is also ordered to suspend its antidrug operations, leaving only the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency the only government body allowed to look into alleged "deaths under investigation." The sudden stop to the war on drugs was prompted by the kidnapping and murder of South Korea businessman Jee Ick-Joo inside the PNP headquarters in October 2016 by "Tokhang for ransom" cops.
