Case No 3185 (Philippines) - Complaint date: 05-FEB-16

International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF)

Allegations

The complainant organizations allege the extrajudicial killings of three trade union leaders and denounce the failure of the Government to adequately investigate these cases and bring the perpetrators to justice. The complainants further allege the use of threats and murder attempts against a fourth trade union leader and his family, who have been forced into hiding, and denounces the Government’s failure to adequately investigate this case and protect the victims. The failure to investigate and prosecute in these cases would have reinforced the climate of impunity, violence and insecurity with its damaging effect on the exercise of trade union rights.
