Martial Law Human Rights Victims

Dear Atty. Rod Domingo,

In behalf of the victims of human rights violations during martial law under the Marcos regime who belong to organizations in the Philippine Alliance of Human Rights Advocates (PAHRA), we would like to express concern over the recent report that some checks belonging to similar victims have been encashed by fake claimants. We are further alarmed that these fake claimants are poor people used by persons known to you. All involved lawless elements should be determinedly prosecuted.

Ending Impunity and Building an Enabling Environment for Human Rights:
Launching the Process towards the Preservation and Turn-over
of Martial Law Documents to Civilian Institutions

Camp General Emilio Aguinaldo
Quezon City

When I was told of this event, I said to myself, not without stirrings of hope and expectation: “Aha, now, hopefully, I would know what happened to a friend named Carlos Tayag, a Catholic Benedictine Deacon, who was head of the ecumenical group called the Student Christian Movement (SCM). He disappeared during the early years of martial law and not accounted for until now.

The citizens of Puerta del Sol and Syntagma Square express our indignation and invite all the ‘indignados’ in all the squares around the world to join us.

From the USA to Brussels, from Greece to Bolivia and from Spain to Tunisia, the crisis of capitalism is on the rise. A crisis caused by the same culprits who are imposing the reforms to get over it: pumping public funds into private financial institutions while forcing the citizens to foot the bill. Rather than lifting us out the crisis, their structural adjustment plans sink us even deeper in.

Dear Ms. Navi Pillay

As you are already aware, on April 8th Iraqi forces attacked the 3400 defenseless Iranian refugees residing in Camp Ashraf with columns of armored vehicles and warfare. In this violent attack 36 residents were killed – including 8 women – and 350 others were left wounded. Maliki’s government has not hidden its intention to annihilate Ashraf residents. He has given an ultimatum to Ashraf residents and the international community, saying he will bring an end to Camp Ashraf at any means necessary and expel the residents from Iraq before the end of the year.
