100 suspects in Mindanao carnage remain scot-free By CRIS DIAZ Associate Editor
AFTER more than two years since an election-related carnage of 58 civilians, 32 of them were media people, in the town of Ampatuan,
Maguindanao, about 100 suspects still remained at large. Rowena Paraan, secretary general of the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines, said that only 96 of the 196 suspects have been
arrested since the infamy took placed 30 months ago on Nov. 23, 2009. She said that of those 64 suspects arraigned, only two are primary suspects -— former Maguindanao Gov. Andal S. Ampatuan Sr.
and his son and namesake, Andal Ampatuan Jr., former mayor of Datu Unsay town. Another prominent family member, Zaldy Ampatuan, former governor of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, has been
put behind bars but has yet to be arraigned. It was the worst electionrelated violence in Philippine history and the worst single attack against media workers anywhere else in the world.
