The chief of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) on Thursday has pushed for the imposition of the death penalty in crimes involving illegal drugs.

PDEA Director-General Aaron Aquino said foreign drug syndicates have made the Philippines as one of their illegal drug transaction sites with the absence of the death penalty.

Aquino noted that it is a no-brainer that the preferential operation of illegal drugs is in the Philippines since they can escape the death penalty imposed in other countries for illegal drug offenses. Senate Bill 207 will amend Section 1 of Republic Act 9346 or an Act Prohibiting the Imposition of Death Penalty.
