Duterte testifies at senate probe for deadly Philippine drug war

Former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte defended his deadly drug war as he testified on Monday at a senate probe of the crackdown.

Police said the campaign left more than 6,000 people dead, but rights groups estimate tens of thousands of mostly poor men were killed by officers and vigilantes, often without proof they were linked to drugs.
