There will be no end to the extrajudicial killings of activists unless Pres. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III drives the decisive blow against impunity. He must act now before another life is taken.

Seven members and supporters of our parties, including a municipal councilor, a human rights lawyer and a public school teacher, have been murdered since after the May 10, 2010 elections. In the first two weeks of the new administration, three activists were slain.
