Makabayan lawmakers have pushed for a probe of recent brutal killings of women by their partners, noting that these highlight the frequency and brutality of gender-related violence in the country.
House Resolution No. 1096 called on the House panels on human rights and on women and gender equality to investigate in aid of legislation the spate of brutal murders and to “recommend measures to prevent the prevalence of gender-related killings.”The measure was filed by the three-member bloc last Thursday, in which they pointed to a “slew of alarming cases related to gender-based violence since March.
The lawmakers cited the March 11 murder of a 22-year-old woman by her 27-year-old live-in partner in Bukidnon, the May 1 stabbing of a woman by her boyfriend in Quezon City, and the June 9 murder of a young woman in Antipolo who was allegedly dismembered by her live-in partner.
