Anti-crime advocates press return
of death penalty after Bulacan massacre

ANTI-crime advocates condemned the massacre that left five people, including three minors dead in Bulacan, as it expressed concern that similar gruesome incidents may follow if Congress would continue to sit on the proposed measure that sought to reinstate the death penalty.

Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption (VACC) Chairman Dante Jimenez said on Thursday that in condemning the massacre, he recalled the tragedy that befell Lauro Vizconde who died fighting for justice for his family who was massacred in 1991.
