Disqualification of a party-list group sought
LEADERS of Abang Lingkod party-list allegedly do not represent the interest of farmers because of their ties to landowners, militant groups said in a disqualification complaint filed last Friday at the Commission on Elections (Comelec).
According to the Kilusang Magbubukid ng Pilipinas (KMP) and rights watchdog Karapatan, none of Abang Lingkod’s incorporator and trustees is a peasant/farmer to make the party eligible to participate in next year’s midterm elections.
Karapatan specifically took note of Abang Lingkod’s standard bearer, Joseph Stephen Paduano, also known as Carapali Lualhati, the national commander of the Revolutionary Proletarian Army-Alex Boncayao Brigade (RPA-ABB).
The complaint cited that Paduano, through his group RPA-ABB, was a recipient of “funding from the government and big landlords in Negros, hence a ground for removal and/or cancellation of Abang Lingkod’s registration with this Honorable Commission.”
It added that the Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process allocated P329 million for livelihood assistance to some 970 villages identified with RPA-ABB, signaling conflict of interest.
Also in the complaint sheet was Patrick Leonard Lacson, provincial board member of Negros Occidental.
In 2001, the Mamamayan Ayaw sa Droga (MAD) was disqualified when the Comelec and the Supreme Court discovered that it was funded by the Philippine National Police (PNP). One of its nominees was actor Richard Gomez, who is seeking the mayoralty post in Ormoc City, Leyte.
Karapatan said the RPA-ABB has been involved with numerous cases of human rights violations, specifically in the island of Negros. Reports said the RPA-ABB now functions as a paramilitary group.
