Before the coffin of Alex Hongo, 31, is interrred in Pasay Cemetery, a child is passed over it as is customary at Filipino funerals to prevent the children having nightmares. Hongo was killed on 25 November 2016 along with five others in what appeared to be drug-related executions. Alex was on a drug user watchlist drawn up by local officials and left behind a wife and six children.
