Pimentel: Duterte's remarks on killing senators a sign of personality disorder

Senate Minority Leader Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III stated that an obsession with death and killing is a worrying sign of a serious personality disorder.

Pimentel made this statement in response to former President Rodrigo Duterte's remark about killing senators to ensure the victory of PDP-Laban's senatorial slate during a proclamation rally on February 13.

He emphasized that it is the responsibility of the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to determine if a crime has been committed.

DOJ Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla stated that it is up to the NBI to look into the alleged threats, noting that they are accustomed to the former president's language.
