But of course, Ampatu...Yes, I heard of the arrests. But of course, Ampatuan Jr is going to deny (and he really is denying) the allegations against him. And arresting Ampatuan Jr is not and should not be the end to it. There should be rigorous investigations and the one responsible should be convicted.Kerthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17146666763404548871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14974164.post-86015370653338988422009-11-26T13:03:25.747+08:002009-11-26T13:03:25.747+08:00It probably does not need to be said, but I do it ...It probably does not need to be said, but I do it for the record.

And what the hell does our government take us for? Idiots?<br /><br />The investigation process seems inefficient. The Ampatuans should be taken into questioning already.<br /><br />It's really kinda scary to live here in the Philippines 'cause powerful people can just get away with any crime -- even though there are already strong evidences against them.Kerthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17146666763404548871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14974164.post-4219926710683521822009-11-26T03:53:36.407+08:002009-11-26T03:53:36.407+08:00UPn,

http://newsinfo.inquirer.n...Gibo is urging arrest:<br /><br />http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/nation/view/20091125-238331/3-Ampatuans-expelled-from-admin-party<br /><br /><i>Gilbert “Gibo” Teodoro, Lakas-Kampi-CMD chair, earlier called for their expulsion from the party.<br /><br />Teodoro said in a statement: “I have called on the party to take the decisive step to initiate expulsion proceedings against them for their failure to uphold party ideals and principles in their area of jurisdiction, especially relating to the peaceful, legal and democratic pursuit and exercise of political power.”<br /><br />Dominguez said Ampatuan Sr. and Zaldy “being both the actual and symbolic heads of the Ampatuan clan, are now considered expelled from the party and relieved of their duties and responsibilities as the party provincial chair for Maguindanao and regional chair of ARMM, respectively.” <br /> . . .<br />Teodoro, the former Defense secretary, made the call for the Ampatuans’ expulsion during a visit to Buluan town in Maguindanao, two days after the massacre of at least 57 people, including members of the Mangudadatu political clan and several journalists. The victims were seized and killed by armed men said to be followers of the powerful Ampatuan clan.<br /><br />Teodoro came from an oath-taking of new party members in nearby Midsayap town. In Buluan, Teodoro condoled with families of the victims of what has been described as the worst politically related massacre in the nation’s history.<br /><br /><b>He urged the government to arrest Andal Ampatuan Jr.,</b> who was believed to be behind the massacre, and disarm suspected perpetrators of the “dastardly crime,” as well as all armed groups in the area to prevent an escalation of violence.</i>UP n gradnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14974164.post-70905238728379761082009-11-25T23:37:16.040+08:002009-11-25T23:37:16.040+08:00Dureza will announce that it was a mass suicideDureza will announce that it was a mass suicidemanuelbuencaminohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07644763064403005323noreply@blogger.com
