A local court orders the arrest of communist leader Jose Maria Sison and 37 other people for their alleged involvement in a massacre three decades ago

Branch 32 of the Manila Regional Trial Court issued the warrant of arrest on August 28 for 15 counts of murder, a copy of the document was obtained by the media on Friday.

The warrant also covered known communist leaders Rodolfo Salas, Leo Velasco, Jose Luneta, and Prudencio Calubid; NDFP peace consultant Eduardo Sarmiento; former priest Nick Ruiz; and Sison's wife Juliet. The rest of the accused in the so-called Inopacan Massacre of 1985 are: Geronimo Pasetes, Francisco Pascual, Jr.

Sison, in a Facebook post on Friday maintained this is a"fake" plot. He said authorities under then President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo collected bones from various cemeteries to frame the communist rebels for murder. He reiterated that he and the other suspects were in jail during the time of the supposed killings.
