Sen. Leila M. de Lima's Handwritten Note
Dispatch from Crame No. 65

4 / 13 / 17

I join the nation in expressing sympathies with the family and loved ones of the uniformed personnel--3 soldiers and 1 policeman--who perished during a firefight with Abu Sayyaf bandits in Bohol. I also laud the militiary for neutralizing a notorious leader of the ASG believed to be responsible for atrocities, including beheading of foreigners. Let the full force of the law be cast upon the rest of the these lawless and ruthless elements. I am in solidarity with, and give honor to, the Armed Forces of the Philippines in protecting our peace and preserving our freedom. Mabuhay ang ating mga sundalo! Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!
