Duterte on rising death toll in war against drugs: 'I really do

not care'
President Rodrigo Duterte said he did not care about the rising death toll of his administration's
campaign against drugs, amid growing concerns from local and international watchdog
organizations.
Speaking at the State of Mindanao Environmental Summit at the Ateneo de Davao University on
Thursday afternoon, Duterte said that drug suspects killed during police operations put up a fight
because they are already high.
"Mababasa mo up to date, may tally ang lahat na, 470. I do not care. I really do not care because
I know na kapag iyang bangag na," he said.
Duterte continued his tough talk against those in the drug trade, once again promising
death.
"Papatayin talaga kita. Do not do it. Do not destroy my country because I will kill you. Do
not destroy the young kasi iyon ang kapitan namin bukas," Duterte said. —JST, GMA News
