MILF wants govt to also release Moro pol detainees - Nation - GMANews.TV - Official Website of GMA News and Public Affairs - Latest Philippine News

Taking their cue from the communist-led National Democratic Front, secessionist rebels in Mindanao urged the national government Saturday to also release Moro political detainees to push the peace process forward.

Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) peace panel secretariat member Jun Mantawil said now is the best time to release the Moro political prisoners, as the peace talks are at an “impasse."

“Releasing these detainees can help jumpstart the ailing GRP [Government of the Republic of the Philippines]-MILF peace talks ... This is the best time to make the release while there is impasse in talks," Mantawil said in an interview on the MILF website.
