2006年11月20日（月）夕方、メキシコ大使館に対する抗議−オアハカ国際連帯行動に引き続き、フィリピン大使館にたいする抗議行動＝「サガダ９を解放しろ！行動」も国際的に連携して取り組まれた。2月14日、フィリピン国内をヒッチハイクで旅をしていた11名がルソン島北部サガダで検問に会い、「フィリピン新人民軍」メンバーだとでっちあげ逮捕された。うち9名はいまだに勾留され続けている。軍による内戦は無辜の人々を標的にする。その犠牲を免れる保証は誰にもない。（文責：津村洋）

「FREE SAGADA 11 (現9)キャンペーン」とは、フィリピン国内をヒッチハイクで旅をしていた、下は15
才、上は25 才までの計11 名のアナルコ・パンクスやFOOD NOT BOMBS のアクティヴィストたちが、2006
年2 月14 日ルソン島北部サガダで検問に会い、警察によって「フィリピン新人民軍」のメンバーだと決めつけられ逮捕、そしていまだに勾留され続けていることに対する抗議のキャンペーンです。
すでに未成年の2 名(15 才と16 才)は釈放されていますが、9 名はいまだ勾留されています。なので、現在は「FREE
SAGADA 9 キャンペーン」と呼ぶのが正しいです。
なお、2006 年5 月19 日に、La Trinidad のRegional Trial Court において、11
人の逮捕が違法であるという判決が既に出ています。

2. Anderson Alonzo (18) of Calinan, Davao City
3. Aldoz Christian Manoza (18) of Sampaloc St., Santolan, Pasig City
4. Ron Pandino (20) of Barangay Mayatba, Siniloan, Laguna

8. Arvie Nunez (21) of Barangay Silangang Mayao, Lucena City
9. Jefferson dela Rosa (20) of No. 211 A.M. De Leon St., Santolan, Pasig City
All of them are presently detained in a jail in La Trinidad, Benguet.
Name of minor victims released to their parent’s custody:
1. Frencess Ann Bernal (15) of Calumpang, Marikina City
2. Ray Lester Mendoza (16) of Blk. 157 Lot 32 San Francisco St., Barangay Rizal, Makati City
Name of persons charged: General Villamor Bumanglag, provincial director of the Benguet Provincial Police Office (BPPO); Police Superintendent Brent Madjaco, head of the 1604th Police Provincial Mobile Group (PPMG) and his men; and unidentified military agents and Cafgu members
It has come to my attention that the 11 persons, who were arrested and subsequently tortured by the police and military men on 14 February 2006, have filed another criminal charges before the Benguet Prosecutor’s Office on June 28. In the new complaint, the victims charged the police and military officials for arbitrary arrest and detention. As you are aware, the Regional Trial Court (RTC) in La Trinidad, Benguet had already ruled on May 19 that the arrest of the 11 victims was illegal.
While I appreciate the progress made on this case, I am deeply concerned that the prosecutor’s office may further delay in resolving this new complaint of arbitrary arrest and detention. I am aware that prior to the filing of this complaint, on March 31 the victims had also filed for violation of Republic Act 7438 against the same respondents. No formal charges have yet been filed against them in court. It is reported that the Office of the Deputy Ombudsman for the Military and Other Law Enforcement Office have yet to act on the recommendation made by the prosecutor’s office. Only until the Ombudsman takes action to the recommendation of the prosecutors the case will make progress in court.
Also, the administrative case filed with the regional office of the National Police Commission (Napolcom) is also dragging at their office. The Commission has yet to commence its summary hearing of the administrative complaint that the victims also filed on July 20 and 21, despite a long hiatus between its original complaint filed to them. The delay to resolve the case on part of the Commission and Ombudsman is seriously affecting this case. I am deeply concerned this situation may prolong unless acted upon while the victims remained in jail.
I am deeply concerned that charges of robbery with homicide, which was re-filed by the policemen against the 11 victims, after the court’s ruling that the 14 February 2006 arrest and detention of the victims was illegal could be a mere rehash. I am extremely disappointed that the victims’ allegations that the confession and evidence taken from them by way of torture, which the police used prosecuting them, have not been acted upon. To my understanding, the succeeding proceeding--filing of the case--should have been subsequently declared as null and void as the arrest have already been declared illegal. I therefore urged the court, to consider these circumstances in their future deliberation.
I urged your appropriate intervention to ensure that the complaints the victims filed to the prosecutors’ office, ombudsman and the police commission are acted upon promptly. I believed that you would completely agree that promptness to resolve these cases is very essential. Please also request the prosecutor’s office in Benguet to consider dropping the charges of robbery with homicide against the victims re-filed by the police considering given the court’s ruling. If this cannot be done, please request the court to consider approving the victim’s petition for reinvestigation. Reinvestigation is necessary in order that the allegations of torture are dealt with accordingly.
Additionally, please request the concerned government agencies, in particular the Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) to considering dismantling the armed militias they are utilizing--Civilian Auxiliary Force Geographical Unit (Cafgu). The utilization of Cafgu had already resulted to abuses. In this case, Cafgu members had been accused of taking part in the illegal arrest and detention. The government must send a strong message against the use of this force.
I trust that you will take action on this case.
Yours sincerely,
Free Sagada 11 Solidarity Action Tokyo
