Gabriela backs VP Leni’s stand vs. drug war bloodshed 10 SHARES Share it! “Gabriela Women’s Party supports VP Leni Robredo in her call to stop Oplan Tokhang and in adopting zero killing approach towards putting an end to illegal drug trade,” the pro-women’s group said in a statement on Sunday. “We are one with the women and children widowed and orphaned by the drug war in calling for justice,” added the group, which is represented by second-term solon Arlene Brosas in the House of Representatives. During her first meeting with ICAD, Robredo criticized the “senseless killings” in connection with the anti-illegal drug campaign and sought to put an end to the bloodshed. “Three years of Duterte’s Oplan Tokhang spawned the deaths of tens of thousands coming mostly from poor communities,” Gabriela claimed.
