PANELO – The legal adviser of Pres. Rodrigo ‘Rody’ Duterte, Salvador Panelo, expressed the several factors behind the declaration of ‘state of lawlessness’ by the President.
Recently, President Duterte has declared the ‘state of lawlessness’ after the incident that happened in Davao City which left several families grieving for the unexpected and abrupt lost of their love ones.
