Families of victims killed during the Philippines war on drugs say they hope to get justice after judges at the International Criminal Court approved a formal investigation
Rights groups say Philippines' President Rodrigo Duterte incited deadly violence and accuse police of murdering unarmed suspects on a massive scale as part of the anti-narcotics campaign launched in 2016.
Gerango's younger brother was killed by police in September 2016 after being tagged as an alleged drug dealer. "Our aggressive campaign against illegal drugs will continue," the office of the police spokesperson said noting a 64% fall in the drug-related crimes in the past five years.
