NAGA CITY — Considering the Mindanao peace process context of the Zamboanga Siege and the Misuari Cases, rightly recognized in Judge San Pedro’s 27 October 2016 Resolution, a broader concept of justice tied to that peace process may provide better or fuller justice than criminal justice. We refer to transitional justice, such as that provided for in the 2014 forged between the Philippine government and the MILF only about six months after the Zamboanga Siege.
So far, there has been no recurrence of a MNLF siege ten years hence. This is likely due to a combination of factors. One is that the MNLF has become a spent military force, losing perhaps its best field commander Ustadz Malik, among its significant battlefield losses of fighters and arms, in the Zamboanga Siege. Second is the ongoing prolonged criminal prosecution with convictions even if only by plea bargain agreements of a big number of MNLF elements in the Misuari Cases.
By the most reliable accounts, the Misuari/MNLF grievances behind the Zamboanga Siege were his loss in the May 2013 ARMM elections, the usual corruption issues against the incumbent ARMM regional government no longer under the MNLF helm, and perceived closing by the Philippine government of the MNLF track in favor of the MILF track in the Mindanao peace process.
