Pushed in US Senate: ‘No entry’ for De Lima jailers

ADVERTISEMENT

The amendment, as relayed to the media by De Lima’s office on Friday, reads: “Prohibition on Entry–Section 7022 of this act shall be applied to officials of the government of the Philippines about whom the secretary of state has credible information [that they] have been involved in the wrongful imprisonment of Sen. Leila de Lima, who was arrested in 2017 on politically motivated charges.”

The amended US Senate bill also referred to other cases of “wrongful detention” in other countries and sought the same prohibition on the entry of certain “officials of the governments of Turkey, Egypt or Saudi Arabia.”Durbin and Leahy are among the US officials who have been closely following Philippine affairs under the Duterte administration.

“It is an insult to the competence and capacity of our duly constituted authorities as such act makes it appear that this US Senate panel has the monopoly of what is right and just,” Panelo said. “It is an outright disrespect to our people’s clamor for law and order. It treats our country as an inferior state unqualified to run its own affairs.

“Human beings everywhere—regardless of ethnicity, nationality, class, religion, or gender—must speak out against mass murder,” said Pangilinan, the LP president.Sen. Ping Lacson, a member of the Senate majority bloc, said “I really don’t get the sense .”

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ How much your honor & for how long?

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ Senators are closing ranks with a co-Senator (DeLima) who is falsely being accused which on its face, is blatant political persecution.

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ it is their law... to deny anyone to enter to their land is their right.. we should not overreact too much on this..

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ Maybe initiated and funded by yellow campaign donor Loida.

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ The Philippines is a sovereign nation. Democracy is still working. Dumb senators. Why not go to North Korea, Syria or Iran instead?

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ Kasi nman obvious ung human rights violation against de lima. Trump up charges, hanggang ngyon ni pa yata naa-arraign dahil pabago-bago ang charges. Anubayen!

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ Hmmm. This is clear meddling of internal affairs. Should the Philippines deny entry to US lawmakers seen as interfering with local affairs? From a different perspective, I can understand why there are those who despise the US. Mind your own business American Senators.

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ Mabubulok parin si delibog sa kulungan. Walang lalaya. Mga ulol lang tong mga US senators.

CMRamosINQ JMAurelioINQ MRamosINQ Henry Oaminal of Misamis Occidental, Rodolfo Fareñas of Ilocos Norte.
