Neophyte congressman wants anti-women laws repealed

Neophyte congressman Silvestre Bello 3rd wants to repeal what he calls irrelevant laws such as the Revised Penal Code provision allowing a husband who catches his wife having sex with another man the right to kill her without facing any criminal liability.

Bello, who was Justice secretary in the Arroyo administration, was referring to the death by extraordinary circumstances provision in the Code.
