The Commission on Human Rights expressed hope Thursday that the guilty verdict against four police officers over the killing of a father and his son during an anti-drug operation will be the start of a sustained progress in addressing human rights violations.This came after a Caloocan court found four police officers guilty of homicide for the killing of Luis Bonifacio and his son Gabriel Lois in September 2016.
The victims’ camp, however, consider the conviction as “a partial victory” because they filed murder charges.Meanwhile, the CHR expressed support for the ongoing House committee hearings on deaths attributed to the Duterte administration’s war on drugs.“We remain hopeful that these comprehensive deliberations will lead to more prosecutions and deliver justice to the many families devastated by these unlawful acts,” it said.
