It has come to my attention that individuals/groups are using my name and affiliation to threaten and demand money from certain businesses. I DID NOT — AND WILL NEVER — ENGAGE in such deplorable acts.
JUST IN: Visiting UN special rapporteur on freedom of expression and opinion Irene Khan recommends abolition of NTF-ELCAC, saying it is already outdated as the gov’t already indicated possible resumption of peace talks. @PhilippineStar
Khan also recommends the issuance of an executive order denouncing the practice of red-tagging, citing cases involving state security forces despite the government’s insistence that it has no policy on red-tagging and terror-tagging. @PhilippineStar

The NUPL says there is no legal basis for the military to hold environmentalists Jhonila Castro and Jhed Tamano in their custody.
The military claimed that the two voluntarily surrendered, but Castro and Tamano just confirmed that they were abducted. @PhilippineStar
Karapatan also urges the mayor of Plaridel, Bulacan to ensure that the two will not be returned to military camp and that their release to their families are immediately facilitated. @PhilippineStar
Karapatan: The exposé of Jonila and Jhed, in their own words, of their abduction by the military speaks volumes for the many victims of abduction and enforced disappearance, the wave of attacks against activists and rights defenders under the current dispensation. @PhilippineStar
