COTABATO CITY — Local sectors yesterday appealed to President Arroyo to replace with a "more active unit" the local police and send in the Marines to help neutralize "untouchable" guns-for-hire, whose latest victim is a popular Muslim judge.


Local leaders are certain the brutal murder here last Saturday of Judge Sahara Silongan, of the Regional Trial Court Branch 15, will just be an addition to the list of dozens of still unsolved high-profile crimes that have spurred criticisms of the city police.
