INNOCENT OF ALL CHARGES, BOB REYES IS FINALLY FREE!

Defend Jobs Philippines welcomes the release of its convener, Juan Alexander “Bob” Reyes, today, October 20, following his acquittal in his final remaining charge. His acquittal in his last case clears the way for his release and marks the end of years of facing charges over acts he did not commit.

Bob’s freedom is a long-awaited victory for his family, comrades, and all those who stood by him. His release strengthens our resolve to continue fighting for justice and accountability.

As a labor organizer, Bob has dedicated his life to advancing workers’ rights. His case underscores the need to end the persecution of labor organizers and human rights defenders for their commitment to serving the people.

Bob Reyes is innocent, and he is finally free. We welcome him home and reaffirm our commitment to the fight for workers’ rights and justice for all political prisoners.

Mabuhay ka, Bob! Mabuhay ang uring manggagawa!
