The political persecution by the Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo administration against incumbent Gabriela Women’s Party List Representative to the Philippine Congress, Liza Largoza-Maza and her colleagues, Bayan Muna Representatives Satur Ocampo and Teodoro Casiňo and former Anak Pawis Representative Rafael Mariano continues.
