In a statement, Kilusang Magbubukid ng Pilipinas (KMP) alleged that “armed representatives” of the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) have repeatedly harassed Romeo Torres and his fellow farmers.
Torres, a farmer from Norzagaray, Bulacan, was found dead on Feb. 5 in Mabitac, Laguna.
His remains were stuffed inside a plastic drum plastered with cement and thrown in a creek. He was first reported missing three days before his body was discovered.
“We believe that the NTF-ELCAC is complicit in the murder of Rommy Torres. Armed representatives of the red-tagging task force have repeatedly harassed Torres and his fellow farmers. Their brazen actions have at least emboldened the goons directly responsible for the crime,” said KMP National Chairperson Danilo Ramos.
