Group eyes class suit to stop hero’s burial for Marcos

A COALITION of human rights, civic and people’s organizations “of all shades of colors” is planning to troop to Rizal Park on Sunday to protest the hero’s burial of former president Ferdinand Marcos at the Libingan ng mga Bayani, and is also eyeing a class suit to block it.

“Marcos was no hero,” the Coalition Against Marcos Burial at Libingan ng mga Bayani said in a statement, arguing that the late dictator had lied about having a distinguished war record.
