MANILA — Malacañang has said it would let the courts determine if the policemen who shot dead Albuera, Leyte Mayor Rolando Espinosa Sr. inside his prison cell should be held criminally liable. “Now, if the Senate finds it that it has to be pursued in the courts, then so be it. Let the cases be filed in the courts and let the courts decide if the policemen are guilty or not,” he said. Before flying to Thailand and Malaysia last week, Mr. Duterte said he found nothing suspicious about the circumstances of Espinosa’s shooting death and that he was behind the CIDG personnel behind it. Because if you do that, the policemen will not do their work anymore.” SFMRELATED VIDEOS
