Pastoral letter of Western Visayas bishops on the Tumandok killings
Compelling a brother Bishop to say that the killings were a “continuation” of the “mass killings and arrests” of other activists in the central Philippines in recent months.” In the early morning of December 30, 2020, a joint operaIon of the Philippine Army and the Philippine National Police VI to serve 28 Search Warrants under the Synchronized Enhanced Management of Police OperaIon (SEMPO) resulted to the death of nine (9) people and the arrest of 17 members and leaders of the Tumandok tribes of Tapaz, Capiz and Calinog, Iloilo. TUMANDUK, an alliance of 17 indigenous peoples’ (IP) communities in Tapaz and Jamindan towns in Capiz and Calinog in Iloilo province, strongly opposes the construction of the Jalaur Mega Dam. All these we lip up to God through the intercession of NUESTRA SEÑORA DE LA CANDELARIA, the patroness of Western Visayas, as we mandate that this letter be read in all the masses in all the Churches of Western Visayas on January 24, 2021.
