A YEAR after transport worker Belly Bujinga’s tragic death from COVID-19, her campaign for justice has hit a stumbling block.
According to The
Telegraph, British Transport Police won’t name the man who is suspected to have spat at transport worker Belly Mujinga.
Therefore, legal representatives from Mujinga’s family have not been able to launch a private prosecution.
The move to protect his anonymity, is allegedly for his own protection and in order to respect data protection laws.

Extending the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) in the country’s main economic hub, as well as Bulacan, Cavite, Laguna and Rizal, could shave at least one percentage point off gross domestic product (GDP) this year and further slow economic recovery, Michael L. Ricafort, chief economist at Rizal Commercial Banking Corp. said in a note on Sunday.
