00:00A former member of the Communist Party of the Philippines, a former alumni of the University of the Philippines,
00:05faced the Senate.
00:08He said that he was with him when he recruited students in UP.
00:12The young party list representative, Raul Manuel, was appointed as a congressman.
00:17Jonathan Andal has the first news.
00:20In the Senate, Sabelliano's wife called to find their missing son, 22 years old, a student of UP Los Baños who was brought to Cavite to be a member of the NPA or New People's Army.
00:49According to the PNP, almost 200 students have been recruited by the CPP-NPA since 2014 until now.
00:56The police also targeted some schools that have the most students who were recruited by the CPP-NPA,
01:02including some state universities such as the University of the Philippines and some high schools.
01:08A former member of the CPP and an alumni of UP also faced the Senate.
01:14He said that UP Diliman itself is recruiting students for the CPP-NPA through the accredited student organizations of the university.
01:24The Communist Party of the Philippines ordered me to run for student council so that I can recruit the next freshmen.
01:31We collected support from students that we will send to the NPAs.
01:36And that's happening inside the universities.
01:40He said that he will join the recruitment of the current youth party's representative Raul Manuel.
01:45In 2017, we will recruit him as a student regent and me as an ally of UP Diliman.
01:52While he's a student regent, he's recruiting young people to be NPAs?
01:57Yes sir. That's his tasking as a member of the Communist Party.
02:01Manuel denied this.
02:02It's not true that we are recruiting for those organizations.
02:07If there are people joining there, it's their individual choice.
02:11If we are recruiting, we are really recruiting for the youth party list to be volunteers, interns, and our members.
02:18He said that the leadership of UP does not know that there is recruitment inside their campus.
02:23We will have to do a review of our current guidelines on student accreditation.
02:29And the way they conduct their activities.
02:33In a statement, UP Diliman University Student Council condemned the malicious red-tagging of students and organizations in their universities.
02:42Their challenge to the UP administration is to protect the academic freedom and right to organize of students.
02:49This is the first news. Jonathan Andal for GMA Integrated News.
