VICE President Sara Duterte has called on judges to address the prevailing injustice in the country that has forced some people to take the law into their own hands.

'We live in a society where the demand for justice is urgent and palpable. Citizens, tired of waiting for their cases to be resolved, become disillusioned with the justice system. They become desperate for resolution, for closure and for retribution,' Duterte said in her speech during the Supreme Court of the Philippines-Philippine Trial Judges League Inc.'s 30th Pearl Anniversary in Cebu City on Thursday, October 12.
