Two callers who identified themselves as alleged members of communist rebel group NPA tried to extort money and threaten two CHR offices in Mindanao, one of its officials said. | GabrielLaluINQ

Another call was made the next day to the same Northern Mindanao office — supposedly the same voice who threatened investigators in CHR Region XII.

“CHR strongly condemns these brazen acts of extortion and threats against our regional offices. As an independent National Human Rights Institution, CHR shall not yield to any form of extortion or threat by any individual or group,” she added. “We ask all the proper authorities, particularly the Philippine National Police , to conduct an immediate parallel investigation as we do our own probe on the incident. We also expediently request for PNP to provide security and protection to the said CHR regional offices and their personnel,” she asked.
