STATEMENT OF LIBERAL PARTY PRESIDENT SENATOR FRANCIS PANGILINAN ON THE SUPREME COURT'S DECISION TO UPHOLD MARTIAL LAW DECLARATION

Bilang tanging sangay ng pamahalaan na may kapangyarihan pagdating sa mga isyung legal, nararapat lang na igalang ng lahat ang desisyon ng Korte Suprema kahit pa hindi tayo sumasangayon dito.

Suportado natin ang pasya ng 3 justices na dapat ilimita lamang ang martial law sa Marawi City.

We urge Malacanang to consider the wisdom of the 3 SC Justices Caguioa, Sereno, and Carpio to move to limit Martial Law to Marawi.

We must ensure that the human rights of everyone is protected against abuses and justice will always prevail.

As soon as the fighting ends, the government must buckle down to work and start rehabilitation efforts in the area immediately.
