Former Police Col. Royina Garma, who is reputedly very close to former President Rodrigo Duterte, submitted to the House Quad Committee a second affidavit regarding the Davao Death Squad (DDS).
The DDS is allegedly the system implemented during the time of Duterte as mayor of Davao City and when she was one of the station commanders in the southern city.
She claims police officers who apprehend or kill drug suspects get monetary rewards from the Davao LGU. She says P20,000 is paid if a suspect is killed. The DDS system was used as template for President Duterte’s “War on Drugs” which allegedly claimed 20,000 lives.
