Prosecute Palparan now

Bayan Muna Representative Carlos Isagani Zarate said the arrest of fugitive  Jovito Palparan is a “long delayed action”  in the search for justice for the two (2) abducted and still missing University of the Philippine students —  Karen Empeño and Sherlyn Cadapan, as well as for the other victims of human rights violations under his “brutal reign.”

“We laud the relatives of the victims, particularly the parents of Karen and Sherlyn,  for their relentless efforts to make  the favorite general of  Gloria Arroyo accountable for his crimes,” Rep. Zarate said.
Rep. Zarate noted that the “arrogance” of the arrested former general even in the hands of the authorities.
“For a person who used to brag about his power and influence while committing his crimes with impunity, it is shameless for Palparan to demand some special considerations because of the phantom threats that he supposedly faces,” Rep. Zarate said.

“There must be no special treatment for “The Butcher’:  no wheelchair treatment for him; no hospital arrest; no special cell,” Rep. Zarate added.

“He must be prosecuted now to the full extent of the law.  His arrest should not be used mainly to score political pogi points at the expense of the victims’ relatives who have been waiting for nearly  four (4) years to see  Palparan  behind bars,” Rep. Zarate said as he noted that Palparan’s arrest came  in the wake of the all-time low popularity rating of  Pres. Aquino as well as the bribery issues that  hit the Justice department  relating to the  infamous 2009 Ampatuan massacre.
