Satur Ocampo, and ACT Teachers Rep. France Castro—exactly one year after a Tagum City court found them guilty. The case involves child trafficking charges over the alleged transport of 29 Lumad children during a humanitarian mission in Talaingod, Davao del Norte, in November 2018. Photo by John Carlo Magallon for DAILY TRIBUNE
