APL dares gov’t to severely punish brains, perpetrators of Maguindanao massacre
Alliance of Progressive Labor
CONDEMNING even in the strongest possible terms yesterday’s slaughter of unarmed civilians in Maguindanao would not be enough as it was so gruesome and perpetrated by no less than the camp of a government official closely linked to Malacañang, and thus the masterminds and culprits must be meted out with the harshest possible punishment.
The Alliance of Progressive Labor aired this demand as the authorities have already dug up in shallow graves more than 20 bullet-riddled bodies, including at least 13 media people, a number of whom are personally known and considered as friends by APL-Mindanao.
