Retaliation from drug cartels or were they corrupt and part of Philippine presidential cleaning house?
Mayor Ferdinand Bote of General Tinio in Nueva Ecija, Philippines, was pronounced dead Tuesday shortly after a gunman approached his car on a motorcycle and shot him dead in the town, the second assassination of a mayor in the country in as many days.Bote’s murder follows the killing of Mayor Antonio Halili of Tanauan City, Batangas, in front of a crowd assembled for a flag-raising ceremony on Monday morning. The government of President Rodrigo Duterte has vowed a thorough investigation and justice in both cases. No evidence exists that Bote was either accused of involvement in the nation’s sprawling illegal drug trade or had become a significant target for drug criminals, unlike Halili, who somehow found himself as both.
