Chiz nang mapanood ang Mamasapano video: Masaker 'di misencounter

MANILA, Philippines – Nakatitiyak si Sen. Francis “Chiz” Escudero na hindi misencounter ang pagkasawi ng 44 miyembro ng Special Action Force sa Mamasapano, Maguindanao kundi isang massacre.

Pinagbasehan ng senador ang kumakalat na video sa social media kung saan kita ang pagbaril sa isang SAF member kahit buhay pa.

“The Mamasapano tragedy is clearly a massacre, and not a misencounter,” komento ni Escudero.

“Stop calling the Mamasapano tragedy a misencounter, as it is now clear that it was a massacre as revealed by the gruesome video showing how the SAF officers were brutally executed by armed men."

Kumalat ang video nitong kamakalawa kung saan iminungkahi pa ng isang kongresista sa imbestigasyon ng Kamara na ipalabas ito.

“This is disturbingly brutal and barbaric and has no place in a civilized society. Conscience and humanity has totally escaped these people and justice must be exacted at all cost,” pahayag ng senador.

Muling hinamon ni Escudero ang Moro Islamic Liberation Front na isuko sa gobyerno ang nasa likod ng pagpatay sa 44 tauhan ng SAF upang mapatunayan ang kanilang sinseridad sa usaping pangkapayapaan.

“I strongly challenge the sincerity and intent of the MILF: identify and surrender your men before the bar of justice. This is part of your commitment to the peace agreement, ani ng senador”

“Now if you say they are not from your ranks but from the other armed groups, you are still duty-bound to identify and surrender these people who committed the crime.”
