GENEVA, June 7 (Reuters) - United Nations human rights
experts called on Friday for an international investigation into
a "staggering number of unlawful deaths and police killings in
the context of the so-called war on drugs" in the Philippines.
Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte has publicly
intimidated activists and Supreme Court judges, degraded women
and "incited violence against alleged drug pushers and others",
11 independent experts said in a joint statement calling on the
U.N. Human Rights Council to launch an independent inquiry.
