    PUBLIC AI Index: ASA 35/003/2004 20 August 2004 Further Information on UA 242/04 (ASA 35/008/2004, 06 August 2004) - "Disappearance"/Fear of extrajudicial execution PHILIPPINES Alvin S. Valdez (m), aged 22 Acknowledging numerous letters of concern about the 16 July abduction of Alvin Valdez by men believed to have been police officers, the Governor of North Cotabato province issued a public statement on 11 August pledging to bring those responsible to justice. He stated that he would not tolerate "extrajudicial actions or summary executions [by police]". The whereabouts of Alvin Valdez remain unknown, and there are unconfirmed reports that he was killed shortly after he was abducted. The Governor is reported to have recommended that the Chief of Police of Kidapawan be suspended until inquiries into the abduction are completed. Eyewitnesses have stated in sworn affidavits that the Chief of Police had been present when Alvin Valdez was taken away from his girlfriend’s home in Kidapawan, North Cotabato province. However, in a weekly radio program hosted by the Governor, the Chief of Police publicly denied the accusations made against him and the Kidapawan police, and added that separate investigations were being made to establish the truth. Investigators have reportedly called for the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), or the national Commission on Human Rights (CHR), to join the inquiry. North Cotabato provincial police have submitted a report claiming that inquiries in the neighbourhood where Alvin Valdez lived were hampered by residents' fear of reprisals. Residents reportedly assured police investigators that witnesses would come forward if a full investigation was made by the NBI or CHR.

  • SANCHEZ Final Defense Draft May 8
    LET THE PEOPLE SPEAK: SOLIDARITY CULTURE AND THE MAKING OF A TRANSNATIONAL OPPOSITION TO THE MARCOS DICTATORSHIP, 1972-1986 BY MARK JOHN SANCHEZ DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History with a minor in Asian American Studies in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Augusto Espiritu, Chair Professor Antoinette Burton Associate Professor Jose Bernard Capino Professor Kristin Hoganson Abstract This dissertation attempts to understand pro-democratic activism in ways that do not solely revolve around public protest. In the case of anti-authoritarian mobilizations in the Philippines, the conversation is often dominated by the EDSA "People Power" protests of 1986. This project discusses the longer histories of protest that made such a remarkable mobilization possible. A focus on these often-sidelined histories allows a focus on unacknowledged labor within social movement building, the confrontation between transnational and local impulses in political organizing, and also the democratic dreams that some groups dared to pursue when it was most dangerous to do so. Overall, this project is a history of the transnational opposition to the Marcos dictatorship in the Philippines. It specifically examines the interactions among Asian American, European solidarity, and Filipino grassroots activists. I argue that these collaborations, which had grassroots activists and political detainees at their center, produced a movement culture that guided how participating activists approached their engagements with international institutions. Anti-Marcos activists understood that their material realities necessitated an engagement with institutions more known to them for their colonial and Cold War legacies such as the press, education, human rights, international law, and religion.

Promulgated: August 18, 2015 1\0_ i I I\ x--------------------------------------------------------------lt-~~fl~~ DISSENTING OPINION All persons, except those charged with offenses punishable by reclusion perpetua when evidence of guilt is strong, shall, before conviction, be bailable by sufficient sureties, or be released on recognizance as may be provided by law. The right to bail shall not be impaired even when the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus is suspended. Excessive bail shall not be required. - CONST., art. !IL sec. 13 The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread. - The Red Lily, Chapter 7 (1894) by Anatole France, French novelist (1844-1924) LEONEN, J: I dissent. This Petition for Certiorari should not be granted. The action of the Sandiganbayan in denying the Motion to Fix Bail was proper. Bail is not a matter of right in cases where the crime charged is plunder and the imposable penalty is reclusion perpetua. Neither was there grave abuse of discretion by the Sandiganbayan when it failed to release accused on bail for medical or humanitarian reasons. His release for medical and humanitarian reasons was not the basis for his prayer in his Motion to Fix Bail 1 filed before the Sandiganbayan. Neither did he base his prayer for the grant of bail in this Petition on his medical condition. The grant of bail, therefore, by the majority is a special accommodation for petitioner.

INTRODUCTION Within a month of ex-Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos's arrival in the United States in February 1986, half a dozen civil lawsuits were filed against him in United States District Courts for human rights violations that occurred in the Philippines during his presidency. The lawsuits alleged that Marcos was personally responsible for summary executions; disappearances; torture; cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment and punishment; and prolonged arbitrary detention in the Philippines between 1971 and 1986. Plaintiffs asserted jurisdiction for these suits under the Alien Tort Claims Act, which provides: "The district courts shall have original jurisdiction of any civil action by an alien for a tort only, committed in violation of the law of nations or a treaty of the United States."! Plaintiffs sought compensatory and puni­ tive damages from Marcos.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT Unlike communist parties elsewhere in Asia, the Partido Komunista sa Pilipinas (PKP) was constituted almost entirely by acti­ vists from the working class. Radical intellectuals, professionals and other middle class elements were conspicuously absent. More parti­ cularly, the PKP was rooted In the Manila labour movement and, to a lesser extent, in the peasant movement of Central Luzon. This study explores these origins and then examines the character, outlook and performance of the Party in the first three years of its existence (1930-33). Socialist ideas began to circulate during the early 1900s, but were not given durable organisational expression until 1922, when a Workers’ Party was formed. Led by cadres from the country's principal labour federation, the Congreso Obrero, this party aligned its policies increasingly with those of the Comintern.

    International Journal of Advanced Research in ISSN: 2278-6236 Management and Social Sciences Impact Factor: 6.284 INFRACTIONS COMMITTED BY UNIFORMED PERSONNEL OF THE PHILIPPINE NATIONAL POLICE OF THE REGIONAL COMMAND 02: ITS TRENDS ANDEFFECTS TO ORGANIZATION Dr. Maita L. Pajarillo-Guadamor* Abstract: The Philippine National Police is a uniformed bureau of the Department of Interior and Local Government and noted as one of the pillars of the Philippine Criminal Justice System tasked with different powers and functions, foremost among which is the maintenance of public order and safety in every aspect of locality. Tracing in depth the PNP’s historical views/background, as the very basis of having come into existence, it is a well – established criterion that the police, under the Philippine setting, primitively evolved from the practice of different tribes in selecting able-bodied young men subjected through vigorous training, to protect their villages not from the assault of animals but from depredation of wild animals which posed danger/ threat to their crops, livelihood and even to their personal safety. Today, this completely resembles that of the PNP’s contemporary patrol, not of animals but of being whose actions and conduct proved inimical to public interest and safety in transgression of the very essence of law. This study made used of the uniformed men as its respondents who committed an infraction during the Complan Pagbabago in the Philippine National Police Department. Since this study was an attempt to study the infractions committed by uniformed personnel of Regional Command 2, its trends and effects to organization, it made used of the descriptive normative survey which described the facts and the nature of offenses committed.
