Maria Concepcion Aranerta-Bocala, the alleged secretary of
the Communist Party of the Philippines
(CPP’s) Panay Regional Committee, recently captured in Iloilo City
As we have consistently held, JASIG is operative only for
those C/N/N personalities who are using their real names and those who are
recognized by the GPH as participants in the talks. Due to the failed JASIG
verification process in 2011, JASIG is no longer operative for those using
aliases or pseudonyms. With the failure of the validation mechanism, there is
no basis to verify if Maria Concepcion Araneta- Bocala and the alias “Remi
Estrella” are one and the same person. She is therefore not covered by JASIG.
We refute the claim that Bocala was illegally arrested. Her
arrest on August 1, 2015 in Iloilo City was a law enforcement operation based
on an outstanding warrant (CC#1491) issued by the Regional Trial Court 6,
Branch 2 in Kalibo, Aklan, for murder charges. Since Bocala is not covered by
JASIG, there is no violation of the Agreement.
We note that the C/N/N and its support groups invariably
claim JASIG coverage every time a C/N/N personality is arrested. However, JASIG
does not exempt anyone from liability arising from acts in violation of penal
and other existing laws.
