NTF-ELCAC legal cooperation cluster head Assistant Solicitor-General Angelina Miranda asserts that 'red-tagging' is a 'legally non-existent' word.
ZAMBOANGA, Philippines – President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has ordered the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict to continue its anti-communist insurgency campaign without letup, National Security Adviser Eduardo Año said on Wednesday night, May 10.
Año told a media briefer that Marcos’ “marching orders to the NTF ELCAC is clear: Sustain the whole-of-nation approach to peace and development to prevent communist terrorists, their front organizations, and other lawless elements from recruiting, regrouping, and regaining power.”“We truth tag, not red tag. We bring you the truth,” said Assistant Solicitor-General Angelina Miranda, the head of the task force’s legal cooperation cluster.
This, she said, was the reason why cases of red-tagging filed during the Duterte administration were dismissed, and another filed after Marcos Jr. took over was sent by the Supreme Court to the Court of Appeals and, subsequently, to the Office of the Solicitor General.as a result of NTF-ELCAC’s relentless red-tagging, as they pointed out the risks of labeling people and groups without basis.
He also said Duterte was seen as “invigorating” by the task force as it works to further weaken communist rebel forces, and proceed “towards sustained development” down to the barangay levels.
