*FIGHT FOR CONG. CRISPIN BELTRAN's LIBERTY AND THE PEOPLE'S FREEDOM FROM
THE ARROYO REGIME! *
* *
*Free Crispin Beltran campaign to be launched *
*In jail, Rep. Beltran calls on Filipino people to continue struggle against
Arroyo dictatorship *
Shortly before his inquest at the Quezon City Hall of Justice last night and
incarceration early this morning on trumped-up sedition charges, Anakpawis
Rep. Crispin Beltran slammed Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo for her
harassment of civilians and legislators critical of her administration,
calling on the Filipino toiling masses to continue the struggle againstss
the Arroyo dictatorship.'
"This is outright harassment. Lumalabas na kinuha ang alleged at bogus
warrant na hinapag ng CIDG ay kinuha sa warrant noon. Ang alam kong kopya ng
warrant dati [ay na-issue] kay Felixberto Olalia, et. al, but that was in
1982, bago kami arestuhin noon nina Bert Olalia. Sa alleged warrant ngayon,
ako lang ang tanging respondent," Beltran said in a telephone interview last
night at around 10:30.
Beltran called on to Pres. Arroyo to withdraw Presidential Proclamation 1017
immediately. "Dapat i-withdraw niya ang PP 1017 sapagkat ito illegal at
labag sa Saligang Batas. Ginagamit lamang ito para sa harassment ng
oposisyon na tumututol sa pananatili ni Gng. Arroyo sa poder at upang
kitilin nang tuluyan ang freedom of association and speech," Beltran said.
"Batas militar ang pinapairal ng rehimeng Arroyo sa deklarasyong 'state of
emergency'. Ang PP 1017 ay nakahanay kasama ng suspension ng writ of habeas
corpus. Ito ay maihahalintulad sa Martial Law "declaration na PD 1081 noong
1972," he added.
"Nananawagan ako sa mga kasama na magpatuloy ng gawain na isulong ang
interes ng masang anakpawis, kasama ang manggagawa, magbubukid, maralitang
tagalunsod, kabataan, at iba pa. Ipagpatuloy ang pakikibaka para makamit ang
tagumpay. Nananawagan ako sa mamamayang Pilipino na labanan ang pahirap na
diktadurtya ni Gng. Arroyo. Ako ay nagsisikap na makalaya sa ilegal na
pagkakakulong na ito, para makasama kayo sa mga laban sa loob at labas ng
Kongreso," Beltran said.
* *
*Anakpawis is also preparing to launch a campaign calling for the immediate
release of Rep. Beltran, the defense of civil liberties, and the people's
freedom from the miseries of the Arroyo administration.*
* *
Meanwhile, Anakpawis officials are also growing increasingly concerned over
Beltran's state of health while in detention. The 73-year old congressman
has a history of high blood pressure and has suffered from a mild stroke
late last year.
Beltran's last meal since the inquest was at around 10 pm last night. He has
been taking medication for initial signs of high blood pressure since then.
