Now called the &#8220;Bloody Sunday,&#8221; it was one of the deadliest days for activists in recent Philippine history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last January 17, however, the seventeen policemen involved in the Bloody Sunday were cleared of their charges due to \u201cinsufficient evidence\u201d submitted by the complainant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cWe lament the demise of Emmanuel Asuncion.
