But the Human Rights Watch is not happy to the mayor's extrajudicial killing system that he is practicing in Davao. They appealed to the Philippine government to investigate the mayor and take an action against him. For he is putting the law into his hands. They believed that Duterte is not only liquadarring drug dealers and other lawless elements; he is also responsible to the death or disapperance of street children.
As of now, the human groups had already conducted to the judicial killings in Davao. But they only investigated some cops who had been involved in death squad. They don't have direct link to Duterte who already admitted that death squad is existing in the city. According to their calculation, there were already 1,000 cases of extrajudicial killings in Davao.
