'JUNK TERROR LAW'
Activists gather outside the Court of Appeals along Maria Orosa Street in Manila on 24 September 2026 as leaders of the Cordillera Peoples Alliance appeal a Baguio City Regional Trial Court ruling dismissing their petition challenging their terrorist designation and the constitutionality of the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020. The activists call for accountability over the designation of human rights defenders and Indigenous Peoples’ rights advocates as terrorists.
