Statement of CHR spokesperson, Atty Jacqueline Ann de Guia, on the killing of Ako Bicol Representative Rodel Batocabe

It is alarming that the trend of killings continue despite the holiday season. However, regardless of season or motivation, the government must not allow such transgressions against human rights to happen. We urge the government to apply increased vigilance, especially that there are allegations linking the killing to the upcoming elections.

CHR-Region V is already investigating the case in aid of making the perpetrators accountable for this crime.
