Duterte added that the report of Chris Rogers of CNN, is a big mistake. Duterte said during those previous years, the police, military and the local government officials didn't know also even a single member of the said group. Commission on human rights (CHR) conducted an investigation, but up to now they can't prove and identify due to lack of evidence.
Duterte agrees that there are killings that happened in Davao City, but it should not be link to the liquidation group because, it is an isolated case and most of this are personal.
The chief of PRO XI, Andres Caro was interviewed on television. He said, issues regarding DDS was very much inflated. Statistics provided by the militant group, stating that there were 292 killed by the said liquidation group is not true and it is a mere allegation
