First on Rappler: The Duterte government, in its 'official' count,' is underreporting by the thousands deaths in its anti-drug campaign.
Rappler learned that around 2,000 deaths in police operations are missing in #RealNumbersPH, the Duterte government's official tally. This comes as human rights groups, which count at least 30,000 killed, accuse the government of underreporting drug war deaths.
Going by the PNP count, there are at least 2,000 deaths already counted by the PNP which have not been factored in, in the #RealNumbersPH tally. Rappler sought an explanation from Rafael, who declined to comment and told Rappler to instead ask the PNP and PDEA. The new PNP numbers also show that with delays in the consolidation and reporting processes of #RealNumbersPH, the official number of killings under the Duterte administration's landmark campaign is being underreported.
