TAIPEI -- Taiwan was faced with a decision in 2018 when it detained former Filipino city councilor Ricardo "Ardot" Parojinog, who fled there after being accused of drug crimes in the Philippines and three of his siblings and 13 others were killed in a police raid.
Over the objections of rights advocates, Taiwan decided to deport Parojinog that July. Last year, he told a court he feared for his life after Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte vowed to "wipe out" his family.
