Dean Pacifico Agabin interviewed on the possible suspension of the writ of habeas corpus

Dean Agabin: Suspension of the writ of habeas corpus would be baseless

Dean Pacifico Agabin stated in an interview with 24-Oras GMA News that there is no basis for the President to declare a suspension of the writ of habeas corpus under the present circumstances.

Dean Agabin expounds that the country is neither under invasion nor a state of rebellion.

The statement comes in reaction to the sentiments expressed by President Rodrigo Duterte that order might be employed if the state of lawlessness spreads across the country.
