Muna Rep. Eufemia Cullamat, who died following an encounter between the Philippine Army and the New People’s Army.
In a statement, CHR spokesperson, Atty Jacqueline Ann de Guia said the Commission found objectionable the action of soldiers, saying “[i]t is a cause for concern when representatives of the government treat the death of another Filipino as victory.”“Time and again, we have condemned armed conflict because, in the end, nobody really wins, especially when it leads to ruined lives and communities.
The CHR further said that it “cannot find good reason in posing for photos with the lifeless body of Jevilyn Cullamat, alongside seized firearms and communist flags.”
