NPA not free from blame in Jevilyn Cullamat’s death

Before anything else, we extend our condolences to Bayan Muna party-list Rep. Eufemia Campos Cullamat, whose daughter, Jevilyn, was killed in a skirmish last week between the military and the New People’s Army (NPA). As many have said, no parent should have to endure the death of his or her child. Jevilyn was just 22 years old and was reportedly a medic for the Maoist guerrilla group that serves as the armed wing of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP), which stands accused of being a terrorist organization.
