菲律宾总统杜特尔特自曝曾当街开枪杀嫌犯

Philippines' President Rodrigo Duterte has admitted he personally killed criminal suspects as mayor of Davao.

菲律宾总统罗德里戈·杜特尔特日前承认，自己在担任达沃市市长期间曾亲手杀死过犯罪嫌疑人。

It is the first such admission he has made since becoming president in June, but echoes comments he made in 2015.

这是他在今年6月成为总统以来第一次这样承认，但这也与他在2015年的评论相呼应。

He ran the southern city for two decades, earning a reputation for cutting crime, and criticism for allegedly supporting death squads.

罗德里戈·杜特尔特管理达沃这座南方城市长达二十年，在减少犯罪方面赢得了声誉，但因支持敢死队而受到批评。

It is the latest in a series of controversial and sometimes contradictory comments by Mr Duterte.

本次的这一言论是他一系列有争议、有时自相矛盾的评论中最新的一则。

"In Davao I used to do it personally. Just to show to the guys that if I can do it why can't you," he said.

他说：“在达沃，我以前经常自己动手--就为让那些家伙们（警察）知道，我都能做，你为什么不能。”

"And I'd go around in Davao with a motorcycle, with a big bike around, and I would just patrol the streets, looking for trouble also. I was really looking for a confrontation so I could kill."

“我会骑着一辆摩托车、开着一辆很大的车在达沃市转，也会在街道上巡逻，看看哪里有麻烦。实际上我是在寻找冲突，那样我就能开枪了。”

In 2015, he admitted killing at least three men suspected of kidnapping and rape in Davao.

2015年，他承认自己至少杀死了三名有绑架和强奸嫌疑的男子。

The comments have been condemned by human rights group Amnesty International, which has called on him to put an immediate end to the killings.

不过这些评论已经遭到了人权组织--国际特赦组织的谴责，该组织呼吁他立即结束杀戮。

But just hours before Mr Duterte's latest remarks, he insisted "I am not a killer", in a speech for The Outstanding Filipino Awards 2016.

不过就在他发表这一最新言论前几个小时的“2016年杰出菲律宾人”的颁奖典礼演讲中，杜特尔特坚称：“我不是杀手”。
