Boying Remulla: “Ang red-tagging is a political term”
BOYING REMULLA – The Cavite 7th District representative clarified that his accusations against Kakampinks during the campaign period were not red-tagging but only taking off their masks.
In an interview via ANC, the politician claimed that red-tagging is just a political term.
“I’m a professional. I’m a lawyer. I know the Bill of Rights,” he said. “Ang red-tagging is a political term. I’m just unmasking them. Sinasabi ko lang ang totoo.”
“I do not subscribe to your thought that I will weaponize,” he added.
It can be recalled that Remulla made headlines during the campaign season after he accused some Kakampinks who attended a rally in Cavite are members of a communist group which is why some groups like Karapatan are wary about his appointment as Justice Secretary in the next administration.
The camp of presumptive President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. has nominated Remulla to be the next secretary of the Department of Justice.
