The Kilusang Mayo Uno (KMU) has called on President Benigno Aquino III to revive the case against alleged masterminds of the gruesome murder of labor leader Rolando Olalia and his driver Leonor Alay-ay 25 years ago.
KMU chairperson Elmer Labog expressed confidence that with the way the government and law enforcement authorities are handling unsolved cases during past administrations, the perpetrators of the Olalia murder will be finally brought to justice.
“Now that the wind of justice is prevailing in the country, we expect that long-awaited justice will finally be served for the families of Olalia and Alay-ay,” said Labog in a press statement.
On Nov. 13, 1986, Olalia and Alay-ay were found dead in Antipolo, Rizal. Their bodies were mutilated beyond recognition and the scar on Olalia’s leg was the only identifying mark that confirmed the labor leader’s identity.
