ITIGIL NA ANG PAMAMASLANG!!!

Ang  hanay ng mga manggagawang migrante sa Roma, Italya ay nagpapahayag ng mariing pagkundina sa ginawang pagpaslang kay Rev. Fr. Fausto Tentorio, PIME, Kura Paroko sa Arakan Valley, North Cotabato. na kilalang tagapagsulong ng karapatan ng lumad at mga magsasaka sa naturang bayan.

Si Fr. Fausto Tentorio  (Father Pops para sa kanyang mga parokyano) ay kilalang tagapagsulong ng karapatan ng lumad at mga magsasaka sa naturang bayan. Siya ay pinaslang ng di-kilalang salarin na hinihinalang military matapos ang kanyang pagmimisa at habang pasakay sa kanyang kotse upang magtungo sa isang pulong ng mga pari sa Kidapawan City.  Ang salarin ay tumakas sakay ng isang motorsiklo matapos paulanan ng bala ang pari.

Maalalang si Fr. Fausto ay kababayan ni Fr. Tulio Favali na pinaslang ng isang grupo ng vigilantes sa ilalim ni Norberto Manero noong 1985. Muntik na ring namatay si Father Pops noong 2003 nang bumisita siya sa mga Lumad ng Kitaotao, Bukidnon na ilang bahagi nito ay sakop ng kanyang parokya noong itinatatag niya ang Tinanaon-Kulamanon Lumadnong Panaghiusa o TIKULPA, isang  organisasyong tribal. Isa sa mga aktibidad ng pinaslang na alagad ng Diyos ay ang pagpigil sa pagmimina na nagpapalayas sa mga katutubo sa kanilang lupa at walang habas na sumisira sa lupa na umeepekto sa agrikultura sa pook na iyon.

Ang pamamaslang ay naganap matapos ang deklarasyon ni Maj. Gen. George Segovia, kumander  ng 10th Inf. Division, na ang Southern Mindanao ang siyang kasalukuyang epi-sentro ng pagkilos ng NPA sa Mindanao. Subalit malinaw na mga pawang alagad ng simbahan at mga progresibong mga aktibista ang napapaslang kagaya ni Fr Pops nan walang ginawa kung hindi ang mga tumututol sa walang  patumanggang pagmimina at nagsusulong ng karapatan ng mga katutubo at ang kaakibat nitong  impunidad gayundin sa harapang paglabag sa karapatang pantao sa ilalim ng kasalukuyang ipinapatupad na counter-insurgency plan Oplan Bayanihan ng rehimeng Aquino.

Nararapat na kaagad na mabigyan ng katarungan ang pamamaslang kay Father Pops at sa lahat ng biktima ng sumaryong pamamaslang at sapilitang pagkawala o desaparecidos. Ipinapaabot ng mga migrante sa Roma ang mainit na pakikidalamhati sa pamilya ng yumaong pari at kagya’t na nananawagan ng agarang hustisya.

ITIGIL ANG PAMAMASLANG!!!

WAKASAN ANG IMPUNIDAD!!!

HUSTISYA PARA KAY FR. FAUSTO TENTORIO AT SA LAHAT NG BIKTIMA NG EXTRA-JUDICIAL KILLING!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

UNDAS PARA KAY FATHER FAUSTO “POPS” TENTORIO


ROMA, ITALYA... Daan-daan migranteng Pilipino ang nag-sipagdalo sa isinagawang MISA AT PAGUNITA para sa pinaslang na alagad ng simbahan na si Father FAUSTO “POPS” TENTORIO isang MISYONERO NG PONTIFICAL INSTITUTE FOR FOREIGN MISSIONS (PIME) na idinaos sa Sentro Filipino Church, Via Urbana, Roma, Italya. Bago ang nasabing misa ay nagsagawa muna ng isang EUCHARISTIC CELEBRATION na pinangunahan ng mga Kaparian at mga lider komunidad. Sa nasabing programa ay binasa ang mga pahayag ng ibat-ibang religious sector at migrants organization na mula sa Catholic Bishop Conference of the Phils.,National Clergy Discernment Group, Basilika Minor ng Itim na Nazareno, Religious Discernment Group, Visayas Clergy Discernment Group, International Coordinating Committee on Human Rights- Rome, Italy Chapter at Ugnayan ng mga Manggagawang Migrante Tungo sa Pag-unlad (UMANGAT-MIGRANTE).

Madadama sa lahat ng mga pahayag ang lungkot at pagdadalamhati ng mga Alagad ng simbahan kasama ang Sambayanang Pilipino sa ginawang walang awang pagpaslang sa misyonaryong paring Italyano na walang ibang ginawa kung hindi ang paglingkuran at ipagtanggol ang karapatan ng mga kababayan natin na mga katutubong Lumad at mga magsasaka sa North Cotabato at gayundin ay kaisa ng mga nanindigan laban sa pagmimina sa naturang lugar.

Batay sa mga isinagawang Fact-Finding Mission si Father POPS ay maituturing na isa na namang biktima ng nagaganap na patuloy na sistematikong pagpaslang at kawalang hustisya sa ating Bayan bunga ng umiiral na Oplan Bayanihan.

Sa pangwakas ay mariin pinahayag ang mga panawagan ng agarang hustisya at katarungan para kay Fr. POPS at ang pahayag ng pagkilala sa kanyang kadakilaan. Kailanman ay kanyang pag-aalay ng buhay ay hindi mawawalan ng saysay at kanyang kamatayan ay lalo pang nagpapalakas at nagpapatibay sa hangarin ng mga alagad ng simbahan at ng Sambayang Pilipino na ipagpatuloy ang adhikain ng Panginoong Hesu Kristo na itayo ang isang Lipunang Tunay na Malaya, Mapayapa at Makatarungan###.

 

     
     
           

Press Release
 

DEADLINE European Premiere Kicks Off in Italy

On November 19, the European premier of Deadline (The Reign of Impunity) kicked off with 2 successful screenings in Modena, Italy. With 18 scheduled screenings in 7 European countries, the European tour of the film is being sponsored by the International Committee for Human Rights in the Philippines (ICCHRP) and IBON Europe to raise awareness regarding the dismal state of human rights in the Philippines.
The film is a political thriller inspired by the 2009 Ampatuan Massacre in Maguindanao, Philippines, where 34 journalists were killed. It brings public attention to the impunity of political killings in the country, earning for it the reputation of being the second most dangerous country in the world for journalists, second only to Iraq.[4]
With breaking news regarding the arrest of former Philippine president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo for alleged sabotage of the 2004 presidential election results, the film brings to light the heinous human rights violations that were perpetuated with impunity under her former government and which she also has to be made accountable for.
 

Accompanying DEADLINE on its European tour are Allen Dizon, lead actor, and Dennis Evangelista, line and supervising producer of the film. Atty. Carlos Zarate, human rights lawyer and legal counsel for some of the Ampatuan Massacre victims will also be attending the screenings in the Netherlands, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
 



The screenings in Italy also include a press conference on the 20th of November in Rome. On 23 November, the second anniversary of the Ampatuan Massacre in Maguindanao, a public screening in the United Kingdom will be sponsored by Campaign for Human Rights in the Philippines (CHRP), Amnesty International, the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ), and UNISON, Britain's biggest public sector trade union with more than 1.3 million members.

More screenings are scheduled in Austria (Vienna), Belgium (Brussels, Gent), the Netherlands (Amsterdam, Utrecht), Denmark (Copenhagen), and Switzerland (Bern, Geneva) and the United Kingdom (London). The Amsterdam premiere on the 10th of December will be part of activities celebrating International Human Righs Day. The final screenings for 2011 will be in Geneva, Switzerland, on December 17.

This independent film is the latest artistic collaboration between both multi-awarded playwright Bonifacio Ilagan (Story/Screenplay) and Director Joel Lamangan.
