PHOTO RELEASE: Jinggoy co-sponsors Senate Resolution No. 307

Jinggoy co-sponsors Senate Resolution No. 307: Senator Jinggoy Ejercito Estrada co-sponsored Senate Resolution No. 307 during Tuesday’s plenary session on February 24, 2025. The measure expresses the Senate’s position to protect Filipinos from extraordinary rendition and to ensure they are given reasonable time to seek legal remedies in Philippine courts before any surrender or extradition. Anchored on the 1987 Constitution’s Bill of Rights—which upholds due process, the presumption of innocence, and equal protection under the law—Estrada maintains that Filipinos should be tried in competent local courts and must not be deprived of their right to be heard. While affirming his confidence in the country’s justice system, he underscored that the resolution aims to safeguard not only specific individuals facing international cases, but all Filipinos who may encounter similar circumstances.
