“We call on the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) to
launch an investigation on the trumped-up
case and shoot-to-kill order against Windel Bolinget, an
Igorot leader and human rights defender belonging to the
Bontok-Kankaey Indigenous People (IP) known for actively
defending IP lands and communities against rampant plunder
and militarization,” International Indigenous Peoples
Movement for Self-Determination and Liberation (IPMSDL) said
in a statement.
On Monday, the International IPMSDL
joined Bayan, Katribu, Karapatan, and other organizations in
a dialogue with the CHR regarding the trumped-up charges
against Bolinget, Bayan’s Lutgardo “Boyette” Jurcales,
Jr. and others.
