In this episode of Te Talks, human rights lawyer Ted Te discusses the Anti-Terrorism Law in the Philippines and its implications for human rights defenders. He compares the cases of two individuals who have been designated as terrorists under the law: former Negros Oriental congressman Arnolfo Teves Jr. and community doctor Naty Castro to illustrate the dangers of the law and the government’s preferred method of implementation. Te argues that the law is being used to silence dissent and erode human rights protections.
