COTABATO CITY, Maguindanao: The proposed Bangsamoro government will protect and respect human rights because it is among its primary responsibilities assured under the proposed Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL), according to Autonomous Region for Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) Regional Human Rights Commissioner Alikhan Abuat on Friday.

“It is imperative to not only address the issues and concerns regarding human rights, but also matters that cover transitional initiatives that are impartial to all parties in regard of truth, justice, reparations, and institutional reforms, all in conformity with the international legal standards and obligations since the BBL mandates the establishment of a Bangsamoro Human Rights Commission,” he said.
