NTF-ELCAC reacts to acquittal of 2 Aetas in pioneer anti-terror case

Published July 19, 2021, 1:12 PM The National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) welcomed Monday, July 19, the decision of an Olongapo City court to acquit two Aetas who were the first individuals to be charged as terrorists under the controversial Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) of 2020. (National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict) Aeta farmers Japer Gurung and Junior Ramos were granted the demurrer to evidence by the Olongapo Region Trial Court Branch 97 after they successfully challenged the sufficiency of evidence filed against them for allegedly firing at members of the Philippine Army in Zambales in August 2020. “The decision has clearly shown that our justice system works, hears, and decides cases fairly without fear or favor,” the NTF-ELCAC said in a statement.
