NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – Rappler is reporting that United Nations experts want Philippine President Bongbong Marcos to declare Martial Law.
After the denial of bail for incarcerated former Senator Leila de Lima, the experts now want Marcos to free her and to investigate how she ended up in jail in the first place.
The only way Marcos could do that is to declare Martial Law which would suspend all Constitutional processes.
Under the Philippine Constitution, there is separation among the three branches of government — Executive, Legislative and Judicial. The President cannot dictate on the Judiciary which is what the U.N. experts want him to do.
De Lima’s case is now under the Judicial Branch.
