Remulla son benefits from Marcos govt's new tack on anti-drug war

TEA TIME

JUST a week before his son was arrested in a drug bust in Las Piñas City, Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin 'Boying' Remulla told the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) that the Marcos administration had adopted a different approach in dealing with the illegal drugs problem.

Steering away from the Duterte administration's controversial 'Oplan Tokhang,' Remulla said President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. has refocused the anti-illegal drug campaign to 'tackling the source of the problem.'
