2. Kung napatunayan na ikaw ay tumanggap ng pera mula sa vote-buying, ano po ang kaparusahan?
3. Kung magkakaroon ng aligasyon ng iregularidad sa mismong araw ng halalan, gaano kabilis kikilos ang COMELEC?
4. Ano ang pwedeng gawin kung may fraud? kanino magrereport?

The Bangsamoro Human Rights Commission - Lanao del Sur Provincial Office (BHRC-LDSPO) has taken cognizance of the reported incident in Barangay Tampilong, Marawi City, on August 29, 2026, involving an operation by the government security forces which resulted in casualties, including civilians.

The Commission extends its deepest sympathy to the families of those who lost their lives and everyone affected by this tragic incident.

As the regionโ€™s human rights institution, the BHRC is doing its utmost to carry out its mandate to promote and protect human rights. We are taking the necessary steps to verify the facts, monitor the situation, and determine whether human rights concerns arising from the incident require appropriate action.

At this stage, we urge the public to remain calm and to refrain from spreading unverified information. Every life matters, and the protection of civilians must remain paramount even in the conduct of legitimate security operations.

The BHRC remains committed to truth, accountability, and the protection of human dignity, and will take appropriate action within the bounds of its mandate as the facts of the incident are established.

On August 26, 2026, the Bangsamoro Human Rights Commission (BHRC) and the Shariโ€™ah Public Assistance Office (SPAO) formalized their partnership through the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) in Cotabato City.

Through this partnership, the BHRC and SPAO seek to complement their respective mandates and expertise, particularly in the areas of human rights protection, legal assistance, and access to justice. The collaboration also aims to facilitate appropriate referrals, strengthen coordination in handling cases, and promote greater awareness of legal and human rights among communities across the Bangsamoro.

More than a ceremonial signing, the MOA embodies a common vision of a Bangsamoro where justice is accessible, rights are respected, and every person is treated with dignity and fairness. It is a meaningful step toward building stronger institutions and ensuring that no Bangsamoro is left behind in the pursuit of justice and the protection of human rights.
