DAVAO CITY: Eight police officers who were relieved for their role in the killing of seven drug suspects are under investigation, the Davao City Police Office (DCPO) said Thursday.

The police officers were relieved on orders of Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Gen. Benjamin Acorda Jr. Wednesday afternoon, after a spate of killings of drug suspects following Mayor Sebastian Duterte's call for a war on illegal drugs.
