We welcome and thank our Commander in Chief for pushing for the free legal assistance for our soldiers and police facing cases of alleged abuse.

We reiterate that this will not be an excuse or open opportunities for our soldiers to commit abuses. Rather, this is a testament that the rule of law reigns on every aspect of our efforts in support to law enforcement operations.
Your AFP has been transforming and continues to inculcate respect for Human Rights, IHL, and Rule of Law. This has been one of the hallmarks in our effective campaign against communist terrorists and other lawlessness and we will not let our gains in this end to go to waste.///
