Keeping an open mind: Senate President Pro Tempore Jinggoy Estrada seeks clarification from former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte regarding an alleged directive he gave to former PCSO General Manager Royina Garma to locate a police officer linked to the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC). Garma claimed this during a House of Representatives hearing, which Duterte denied during a Blue Ribbon Subcommittee meeting on the War on Illegal Drugs on October 28, 2024. Estrada stressed the need for a balanced approach in the anti-drug campaign, highlighting the importance of upholding human rights and preserving the dignity of those affected. He encouraged the public to remain open-minded and support policies that benefit all Filipinos. (Senate Public Relations and Information Bureau)
