DUTERTE BERATES CORRUPT POLICE OFFICERS ON TV

MANILA Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte on Tuesday threatened to kill corrupt police, including those accused of involvement in illegal drugs and other crimes, in an expletives-laden encounter on live TV.

More than 100 policemen, many of them facing administrative and criminal complaints, were escorted to the presidential palace to meet Duterte, police officials said.

“If you’ll stay like this, son of a b----, I will really kill you,” Duterte told the policemen in the dressing-down.
