Repost from Rappler

ARRESTED. Former Maj Gen Jovito Palparan presented to the media after his arrest, at the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) headquarters in Manila, 12 August 2014. Jose Del/Rappler

Former Gen Jovito Palparan, who has a P2 million bounty on his head (who will get this largesse?) was arrested in Sta Mesa today by composite team of NBI and Naval intelligence officer 3 years after an arrest warrant was issued vs him and he went underground

Palparan earned the aka "berdugo" for the execution of activists  There was an upsurge of extra judicial killings in areas where he was assigned.  He served under the term of  GMA.

He said in the interview at the media when he was presented that he will not opt for hospital arrest (although he complained of frozen shoulder and back injury)  Palaparan appeared thin haggard and long hair and apprarently suffered while hiding

Some questions:

1.   Yesterday's hero,doing his duty under a different govt/adminstration, today's criminal?

2,  Is there justice in the way we treat accused:

   senators in PNP custodial center

  Cornejo in custodial center

  GMA in Philippine Veterans Hospital

  Palparan in common jail
