Confessed former hitman Edgar Matobato is willing to be executed if the government reimposes the death penalty on the condition that President Rodrigo Duterte would be the first in line on death row.
"Sana siya ang mauna kasi siya ang founder. Susunod kaming mga tao niya," Matobato said in Raffy Tima's exclusive report on GMA News TV's "State of the Nation."
"Willing akong magpabitay, sir... basta kasama ko yung mga kasamahan ko, kasama yung si Presidente. Siya ang puno ng patayan na yan," he added.
Malacañang has yet to give a reaction to Matobato's remarks.
Duterte is in the middle of a trip to Cambodia and Singapore.
Matobato in a Senate inquiry confessed that he killed suspected criminals years back as part of a vigilante group. He said it was Duterte who formed the hit squad.
He has since been dispensed as a witness by the Senate Committee on Justice and Human Rights after it noticed inconsistencies in his testimony.
Matobato earlier last week filed murder and crimes against humanity against Duterte and several others in connection with the killings allegedly perpetrated by the Davao Death Squad.
