Philippines Mistaken Identity Killing

Diocese of Kalookan Bishop Pablo Virgilio ''Ambo'' David delivers a homily during a concelebrated funeral mass for slain teenager Jerhode ''Jemboy'' Baltazar at the San Lorenzo Ruiz and Companion Martyrs Parish Church in Manila, Philippines on Wednesday, August 16, 2023. David, an outspoken bishop who has condemned extrajudicial killings conducted by policemen, admonished the local Navotas police force for immediately shooting at Baltazar instead of giving a warning. Baltazar, a 17-year old who helps fish with his father, was killed by local policemen on August 2, 2023 who were in pursuit of a murder suspect, which Navotas City police chief Allan Umipig later admitted his officers mistook him for the actual suspect-at-large. The six policemen involved have been suspended and disarmed, facing homicide charges. (Photo by Richard James Mendoza/NurPhoto)
