What Congress should do: Create a commission for Mamasapano inquiry

THERE is urgency and compelling necessity for Congress to create by law a national commission to investigate and report on the circumstances and facts surrounding the January 25 incident that led to the massacre of 44 members of the Special Action Force (SAF) of the Philippine National Police (PNP) in Mamasapano, Maguindanao.

It is urgent because the situation in the South is volatile and our troops and police are angry and edgy.
