THE policemen involved in the death of senior high student Kian de los Santos failed to file counter-affidavits on the administrative cases filed against them, an official said on Friday. Triambulo said the counter-affidavits would determine if the policemen involved in the Caloocan operation were liable to be charged administratively. That’s why the ‘lapses’ in that operation were very serious.” Triambulo added. Friends, neighbors, and family of de los Santos also belied the claims of Caloocan police that he was a “drug runner” in their barangay. There was public outcry for justice for de los Santos who became the face of victims of extrajudicial killings allegedly resulting in the war on drugs.
