Remulla vows support, justice for DOJ guard hurt by rallyists

19 July 2024

Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” C. Remulla assured the Department of Justice (DOJ) security guard who sustained a severe head injury after being attacked by rallyists that the agency will go “all-out” in supporting him and his family until justice is served.

Last 18 July 2024, BAYAN Timog Katagalugan and other rallying groups rushed to the DOJ main office in Ermita, Manila to express their supposed dissent over the government’s handling of the case of BAYAN Laguna member Elizabeth Camoral, who was arrested during the infamous “Bloody Sunday” incident last year.

“The State unconditionally respects the right of the people to peaceably assemble and petition the government for redress of their grievances, however, in the name of justice and fair play, this right must end once the right of others begins,” Secretary Remulla underscored.

“We urge rallying groups to avoid the rage rhetoric culture when rallying, understand what your true reason and motive why you are demonstrating, drop the anger and violence, let’s talk peacefully, convince rather than coerce,” said DOJ Spokesperson and Assistant Secretary Jose Dominic F. Clavano IV.
