K9 units to secure all railway facilities, stations

After Jolo blasts, DOTr orders PCG to deploy K9 units to secure all railway facilities, stations in Metro Manila

Following the twin blasts in Jolo, Sulu that left scores of people dead and injured, the Department of Transportation (DOTr) has ordered the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) to expand the deployment of K9 units to cover all railway facilities and stations in Metro Manila.

The PCG will be deploying a total of 40 K9 units at the stations and facilities of the Light Rail Transit Line 1 (LRT-1), Light Rail Transit Line 2 (LRT-2), the Metro Rail Transit Line 3 (MRT-3) and the Philippine National Railways (PNR) to augment security forces as these vital installations implement stricter security measures to prevent terrorist threats.

The K9 units are composed of K9 handlers, working dogs, veterinarians, and explosive ordinance disposal specialists, and are backed by operations officers as well as quick response teams. Dogs deployed with the PCG K9 units are highly-trained to detect explosives.

DOTr Secretary Arthur Tugade has called on the PCG to help ensure that PNR and the light rail train stations, that serve thousands of passengers on a daily basis amid the threat of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), are kept safe and secured.

“It is vital that we protect passengers from the threat of terrorism, even as we try to maintain public transportation operations amid the pandemic. This is where the expertise and training of the PCG K9 units will prove most effective,” said Transportation Secretary Tugade.

For his part, PCG Commandant Admiral George V. Ursabia Jr. said that the PCG is ready to provide assistance to strengthen the security at the various rail networks.

“The PCG K9 teams are ready to assist the security forces of these rail lines to deter and/or neutralize threats through higher visibility, enhanced response time, and to make the commuter riding experience more secure. We, however, ask for the public’s cooperation in this endeavor. Rest assured that the Coast Guard will remain selfless and committed in protecting the riding public against the danger of terrorism,” Admiral Ursabia Jr. emphasized.

Duterte Grants Pemberton Absolute Pardon

Wazzup Pilipinas!

President Rodrigo Duterte has granted an absolute pardon to US Marine Lance Corporal Joseph Scott Pemberton, Foreign Affairs Secretary Teodoro Locsin Jr. says.

In a tweet, DFA Sec. Locsin said "Cutting matters short over what constitutes time served, and since where he was detained was not in the prisoner’s control—and to do justice—the President has granted an absolute pardon to Pemberton. Here at the Palace."

This move removes all of Pemberton’s criminal liability.

Pemberton made news headlines last week after an Olongapo court ordered his early release over "good conduct," another questionable action.

The US Marine who was jailed for the death of Filipino transgender woman Jennifer Laude.

Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque once said that allowing the early release of Pemberton sets a "very bad" precedent...

Now Roque is saying: "Hindi na po kinakailangan bigyan ng dahilan ng president iyan, dahil ang pag-grant ng pardon at parole, hindi po iyan katungkulan ng hudikatura, kundi katungkulan ng ehekutibo, iyan po ay one of the most presidential of all presidential powers "

Please note that Atty. Harry Roque represented Jennifer Laude's family in the case against Pemberton. He also insisted that the Trans Panic defense does not and should not have a precedent in the case.

We know for sure that Roque has sold his principles and integrity to the devil called Rodrigo Duterte.

Let that fucking sink in as you read this.

Rights group Karapatan also denounces Pemberton’s absolute pardon as “despicable and shameless mockery of justice and servility to US imperialist interests.”

Accuses President of putting interests of US govt 1st over Filipinos’ demand for justice, accountability.

We will never forgive Duterte for pardoning his fellow murderer Pemberton.

This is a direct attack not just to Jennifer & her family but to every trans person & every victim of our corrupt & unequal “justice” system.

Meanwhile, the government sits on the Supreme Court petition filed by the political prisoners praying for their release. These people were charged with trumped up cases. F*cking nauseating. https://t.co/MiPPyFStjf
