Southern Luzon Command chief Lt. Gen. Antonio Parlade Jr.<\/p><\/div>\n

MANILA, Philippines \u2014 Several media organizations and other groups have denounced Southern Luzon Command chief Lt. Gen. Antonio Parlade Jr. for his comments against 黑料社 reporter Tetch Torres-Tupas over her story on Aetas who filed a petition before the Supreme Court (SC).<\/p>\n

The National Union of Journalists in the Philippines (NUJP) said in a Facebook post on Thursday that Parlade\u2019s remarks about Torres-Tupas\u2019 story on the Aetas\u2019 claim of torture under the hands of the military \u2014 that she may be sued for aiding terrorists \u2014 attests to the dangers of the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020<\/p>\n

Torres-Tupas\u2019 story, entitled \u201cTortured Aetas seek SC help against anti-terror law,\u201d was a story on the Aetas’ petition that the Anti-Terrorism Act be declared unconstitutional, which was filed as SC heard oral arguments of those against the said law.<\/p>\n

\u201cTorres-Tupas was simply writing about the fact that the petition was filed and recounting the allegations made in that petition,\u201d NUJP said in its statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government has repeatedly issued reassurances that the law will not be used to stifle dissent or to clamp down on the press. But actions and statements by people like Parlade, who will be tasked with implementing the Anti-Terrorism Law, speak louder than those press statements,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n

JUCRA demands apology from Parlade<\/h2>\n

The members of the Justice and Court Reporters Association (JUCRA), which Torres-Tupas is a member, also released their own statement condemning Parlade\u2019s tirades.\u00a0 According to the group, Parlade should apologize to the journalist, especially as she was only doing her work.<\/p>\n

JUCRA also asked whether the rest of the members should await a similar threat from Parlade, especially since the story was written and published by most, if not all, of their members.<\/p>\n

\u201cParlade did not only red-tag Tupas, but he also threatened her with prosecution just because he did her job, which all of us in JUCRA do every day.\u00a0 JUCRA members also reported the Aetas\u2019 petition for intervention, based on the same Supreme Court pleading.\u00a0 Should we all await for a threat from Parlade too?\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n

\u201cIs the general suggesting that justice reporters are supporters of terrorists? [\u2026] Parlade\u2019s cluelessness notwithstanding, we demand the general to apologize to Tupas,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n

In his post, Parlade questioned whether Torres-Tupas\u2019 sources were allegedly propaganda machinery of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP).<\/p>\n

Parlade, also an official of the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Insurgency (NTF-ELCAC) further said in the comments section, when asked whether a case can be filed against the reporter, that she could be held liable for \u201caiding the terrorists by spreading lies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The military general was referring to a story on two Aetas who were supposedly tortured and fed with feces after being arrested.\u00a0 But 7th Infantry Division Public Affairs Office chief Maj. Amado Gutierrez maintained that no incident happened during the August 2020 incident.<\/p>\n

NUPL: Parlade’s ‘grotesque way’<\/h2>\n

Lawyer\u2019s group National Union of People\u2019s Lawyers (NUPL), on the other hand, said that Parlade\u2019s actions only validate fears and criticisms against the Anti-Terrorism Act.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn a grotesque way, he is actually reinforcing and validating the myriad of objections and criticisms against the ATA. This is a big favor he is giving us, which is awfully unwelcome and outrageously unacceptable. Thanks, but no thanks,\u201d NUPL president Edre Olalia said.<\/p>\n

Cristina Palabay, secretary-general of rights organization Karapatan, on the other hand, warned that this might have an effect not only against Torres-Tupas but also on every other journalist covering sensitive topics like human rights.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd while it could\u2019ve been easy to laugh off Paralde\u2019s trollish Facebook posts, his threats against 黑料社 reporter Tetch Torres-Tupas \u2014 especially in him posing the possibility of charging her through Duterte\u2019s terror law for her report \u2014 is a serious and perilous threat not only against her but also against each and every journalist covering human rights issues and concerns,\u201d Palabay said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt also, rather clearly, shows the true intent of the terror law: to clamp down on our freedoms and to threaten anyone that stands in the way of this fascist regime,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n
