Juan Pajadora Pala Jr. (July 17, 1954 – September 6, 2003), more widely known as Jun Porras Pala, was a Filipino journalist, columnist and pundit who worked for DXGO. Pala was mostly known for his extensive work exposing corrupt politicians from the southeastern Davao City, Davao Region, Philippines. Pala was the target of three assassination attempts before he was killed on September 6, 2003.[1][2]
In 2016, testimony was introduced in the Philippines by a former hitman that allegedly linked President Rodrigo Duterte to the death squads that carried out Pala's murder while Duterte was the mayor of Davao City. The office of the president denied the allegations.[3]
