Manobo tribe leader Bea Milda Ansado shot dead by unknown assailants

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Just days after the murders of several human rights defenders, unidentified gunmen killed Manobo tribe leader Bea Milda Ansado on August 23 in the town of Magpet, Cotabato.

Ansado is a Manobo tribe leader known to actively defend ancestral lands was first shot dead, before her throat cut and eyes removed by unknown assailants.

Malaki ang naging bahagi ni Bea Ansabo sa pagbaka ng mga minahan na pilitang kinukuha ang kanilang ancestral lands. Sumulong siya hanggang sa kaniyang huling hininga.

Nadagdagan nanaman ang sisingilin ng taumbayan mula sa rehimeng ito.

The cowards shot her so she couldn't fight.

They slit her throat to stop her from speaking out.

They gouged her eyes to prevent her from seeing the destruction of her ascestor's land.

They really don’t just kill, but they brutally murder those who fight for the oppressed! Don't let this become part of the "new normal!"

Who is the developer showing interest in these ancestral lands? Oligarchs and mining companies will slaughter IP just to exploit mindanao rich resources!

Her death will not be in vain. She was only trying to defend her people, her culture, and her people's home from destructive capitalists.

Ansabo is the 265th peasant victim of extra-judicial killings under Duterte, according to SAKA.

Militants and activists are getting tagged as terrorists and being brutally murdered with no light of justice and exoneration of perpetrators.

Her death is a manifestation of the state’s unending crackdown over land defenders who bravely fight against multinational and transnational companies that targets on extorting our indigenous people’s rich resources.

I can't believe many are still blind and pretending they don't have any idea pf what is really happening. We are not protected. We are in danger. Open your f*cking minds!

The voices of the people are being trampled with recent killings of minority leaders and human rights activists. But we should not stop speaking out! Justice needs to be served.

Wakasan na ang walang habas na pamamaslang sa mga aktibista at mga lider ng mga katutubong grupo, at kahit sino na may tunay na malasakit sa mamamayan!


May the people responsible for this get their Karma ten-fold!
