Detained Sen. Leila De Lima on Friday called for a Senate investigation on the bloody raid in Tondo, Manila last October, which she described as “another summary execution disguised as legitimate law enforcement” operation. De Lima has filed Senate Resolution (SR) No. 566 urging the appropriate Senate committee to look into a Reuters report that showed chilling security camera footages of a midday police operation in Barangay (village) 19 in Tondo, Manila last October 11. ADVERTISEMENTDe Lima urged her colleagues in the Senate to investigate the “suspicious circumstances” that surround the incident. The video also shows a victim’s body falling off the ground before Pascual turned away the video that recorded the incident.
