Statement of CHR Spokesperson, Atty. Jacqueline Ann de Guia, on the death of Christine Dacera

The Commission on Human Rights is deeply concerned, and condemns the incident surrounding the death of flight attendant Christine Angelica Dacera.

While preliminary investigation by the Philippine National Police showed that the cause of death was due to ruptured aortic aneurysm, visible lacerations and other evidence based on the medico-legal report points to factors of abuse, which include forcible sexual misconduct.

Pending the release of toxicology reports, the Commission shall conduct its own investigation in coordination with local authorities to inquire about the nature of death and ensure justice for the victim.

As one of the sectors who most experience abuse, the government must ensure that greater protection be accorded to women. In this regard, CHR stands for the protection of women in all fronts of life and echoes the call for justice for Christine Angelica Dacera.

We send our sincere condolences to the bereaved loved ones and family members of the deceased.

This case cannot be regarded as solved until justice has already taken its due course and that the perpetrators are held to account. ###
