*Free Ka Bel Movement kicks off*
A broad alliance calling for the immediate and unconditional release of
Anakpawis Congressman Crispin B. Beltran was launched earlier this
afternoon, promising to snowball into a nationwide movement in defense of Ka
Bel's liberties and against political repression.
The 'Free Ka Bel Movement' was launched starting 1 PM at the University of
the Philippines Claro M. Recto Hall, during a forum by the National
Centerfor the Protection of Workers Rights (NCRPW), Kilusang Mayo Uno
(KMU), and
Anakpawis.
Convenors of the Free Ka Bel Movement included former Vice-President
Teofisto Guingona, Cong. Edcel Lagman, Amado Gat Inciong, KMU Chairperson
Elmer Labog, Prof. Ronald Simbulan (UP Faculty Regent), Rosario Beltran
(Cong. Beltran's spouse), Cherry Clemente (Anakpawis Secretary-General), and
Director Joel Lamangan (Co-Chairperson of the NCPWR).
During the forum, Ofelia Balleta, Rep. Beltran's Acting Chief of Staff, read
aloud a handwritten and signed statement by Rep. Beltran for the Free Ka Bel
Movement, composed on March 6, 2006 3:00 AM, inside the 'hospital jail' of
the Philippine National Police General Hospital, Camp Crame.
"Alam nating lahat na ang kalayaan ay matayog at mahirap na abutin. Ito rin
ang tila isang panaginip na hangarin…Hihintayin pa ba natin ang daluyong at
tsunami ng bayan na, dahil sa pagkakakulong at posibleng kamatayan ng anim
na (6) na maliliit na 'Ninoy', at posibelng marami pang isusunod, tulad nina
(Gloria Step Down Movement Spokesperson) Dennis Maga at (KMU leader) Marcial
Dabela, ay maaaring sumambulat?" Rep. Beltran wrote.
"Napakahalaga ng inyong kilusan―upang maunawaan ng illegal, ganid, malupit,
at mandarayang mang-aagaw ng trono sa Malakanyang, ang maaari niyang sapitin
kung hindi pa siya agaran at kusang-loob na magresign. Sa kabilang banda
magpapatuloy naman ang pularisasyon at expansiyon ng organisado, palaban, at
demokratikong mamamaan…Sana ay mapakinggan ng Malakanyang ang inyong
sinasanib na tinig," Rep. Beltran wrote to the members and leaders of the
Free Ka Bel Movement.
Meanwhile, the hearing on the Motion for Judicial Determination of Probably
Cause filed by Beltran's legal counsels from the Public Interest Law Center
(PILC) will be continued tomorrow 10:00 AM at the Branch 138 of the Makati
Regional Trial Court. Rep. Beltran is expected to attend upon the order of
Presding Judge Sixto Marreta Jr. to his military custodians to produce
Beltran before the court tomorrow. ###
