The Department of Justice will look into whether cases of extrajudicial killings during the Duterte administration’s war on drugs were rightfully dismissed due to lack of evidence or if they should be investigated further, National Prosecution Service Prosecutor General Richard Fadullon said Wednesday.In an ambush interview, Fadullon said that murder or homicide cases have a prescriptive period of 20 years.

“Sisimulan natin sa maliit at kung halimbawa tayo ay mag tagumpay doon sa pangangalap ng ebidensya doon sa maliliit na kaso, well chances are we persevere—we will be able to help develop cases for filing,” he said.In October, Remulla said that no one will be spared in the government’s investigation into cold EJK cases. When prompted if this included former President Rodrigo Duterte, Remulla answered that there will be no sacred cows in the investigation.
