We respect the decision of the President to exercise his Constitutional power to call out the Armed Forces of the Philippines to assist in suppressing lawless violence.
And we appreciate that the Proclamation makes clear that this does not suspend any part of the Constitution or impair any of our fundamental rights.
We reiterate our call that we bring to justice those responsible for the violence in Davao and at the same time, our bill of rights is followed and treated with utmost respect.
