Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Secretary Martin Andanar on Tuesday said that the Philippine government respects the decision of a Kuwaiti Court to sentence a Filipina who was linked to Islamic State Jihadist Group (ISIS).
According to media reports, a Kuwaiti Court sentenced a Filipina to ten (10) years imprisonment after she was found guilty of joining the ISIS and plotting attacks in Kuwait.
“In the case of the Filipina in Kuwait, what our embassy can do is to extend legal and consular assistance and make sure our kababayan gets due process and her rights are not violated,” Andanar said.
