Phl - CA disallows rights activist from testifying on Burgos case | Philippines |
MANILA, Philippines -- The Court of Appeals did not allow an official a human rights group to testify on the disappearance of activist-farmer Jonas Burgos.
At the start of Thursday’s hearing on a habeas corpus petition filed by the Burgos family with the appeals court’s 8th division, Assistant Solicitor General Amparo Tang filed a manifestation to stop Cecil Ruiz, secretary general of Karapatan (Alliance for the Advancement of People’s Rights) from giving her testimony.
