Philippines' Duterte vows accountability for anyone who went 'beyond bounds' in drug war
The Peninsula
UNITED NATIONS: Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte said on Tuesday that anyone found to have "acted beyond bounds" in his campaign against illegal drugs would be held accountable under national laws, while appearing to reject an International Criminal Court probe.
Duterte told the United Nations General Assembly he had instructed the justice ministry and police to review the conduct of the campaign, in which more than 6,100 suspected drug dealers have been killed since 2016.
Activists say many thousands more, mostly users or small-time peddlers, were killed by mystery gunmen.
