The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) has denounced efforts to trivialize and justify red-tagging and called on the government to follow due process, rule of law 'before making grave accusations and labelling that endangers human rights and dignity.'

The Commission on Human Rights said that"it is expected that due process and rule of law are followed rigidly at all times before making grave accusations and labelling that endangers human rights and dignity. The government has the duty to create a climate conducive to human rights and human rights work."

"The current repressive political climate and prevailing impunity thus contradict the claim of a government spokesperson, stemming from an incorrectly re-worded Supreme Court decision, saying that "mere labelling of a group as a communist front is not an actual threat to one’s right to life, liberty, and security," the CHR said.

"That's why it is worrisome that our senators, themselves, are using a word that our Supreme Court, the highest court of the land, said it doesn't exist. There is no such thing, this is a weapon used by CPP-NPA-NDF to silence those who blow the cover of the legal fronts," she added. for linking several groups and personalities to the armed communists’ movements. Among them is the Makabayan bloc who filed a criminal complaint against the official for allegedly red-tagging presidential bet Vice President Leni Robredo.and jointly signed and filed a counter-affidavit insisting the Omnibus Election Code is “not a ban on freely expressing their opinions and views.”
