MANILA, Philippines — UniTeam senatorial aspirant Gregorio "Gringo" Honasan II declined to comment on the statements of his fellow candidates in the slate denying Martial Law abuses, but he maintained that these happened.

 

He said there were abuses in the brutal regime of the dictator Ferdinand Marcos, but added that this was "just like in any other administration." The elder Marcos ruled as a dictator from 1972 to 1981 and kept most of the powers he had under Martial Law despite it being officially lifted. 

 

A government Human Rights Victims’ Claims Board tallied and awarded reparations to victims and kin in 11,103 cases of rights violations done between 1972 and 1986.
