00:00 The Office of the Ombudsman denied the complaint against the four police officers that a drug raid took place where four people were killed in 2016.
00:10 The raid was controversial and it reached the court because one person was saved and served as a witness.
00:17 Serby Castillo was the witness.
00:22 In 2016, Efren Murillo was found dead after he was found dead in the middle of a drug raid that was carried out by four other officers in Payatas, Quezon City.
00:34 He was charged with direct assault or a fight against the people of Quezon City Police.
00:41 The case was brought to the Quezon City Metropolitan Trial Court in March.
00:46 Murillo filed a complaint of murder and frustrated murder against four police officers from QCPD Station 6.
00:55 He was also dismissed from the administrative charges of grave misconduct that he filed against the Ombudsman.
01:02 But in the end, on June 5, 2023, the complaints were revoked.
01:09 According to the Office of the Ombudsman, there is no sufficient evidence to find a probable cause or alleged crime in the killing of four officers in a legitimate anti-drug operation.
01:22 The police officers just carried out their duty.
01:26 The witnesses did not see the incident as a police operation.
01:32 It was reported that Murillo was the only one who saw it. But he said he was doubtful because he was a subject or target of the operation.
01:42 According to the Center Law, he was a member of the group of Murillo.
01:46 If they are really saying that he's a subject, it's illegal from the very beginning because they don't have a warrant.
01:52 The police are forcing the families of the victims to go to the ICC because they don't have justice.
02:07 The complainants will be handed a motion for reconsideration.
02:11 The complaint is ready to be filed in the Supreme Court.
02:14 The Office of the Ombudsman is trying to get more evidence.
02:18 The Philippine National Police has yet to get any evidence.
