KRIMINAL · Episode 6: The killing that stopped the drug war

On January 30, 2017, the Philippine anti-drug campaign or the so-called “drug war” was suspended for the first time.

It was temporarily stopped because of one killing, not of a Filipino, but of a foreigner at the hands of the Philippine National Police (PNP).

The victim was South Korean businessman Jee Ick Joo.

He was killed on October 18, 2016 no less than inside the PNP national headquarters, Camp Crame.

In this episode of KRIMINAL, Rappler’s police reporter, Rambo Talabong revisits the story and breaks down the latest on the case that remains unsolved 4 years later.
