Death Toll In Philippines Massacre Rises -- The Telegraph
The death toll from a politically motivated massacre in the Philippines rose to 57 yesterday after 11 more bodies were discovered.
President Gloria Arroyo declared a national day of mourning and pledged to arrest the perpetrators as police said they were investigating a group loyal to the government.
The victims, some of whom were found in mass graves, were killed on Monday as they travelled to file nomination papers for the forthcoming elections.
A total of 13 journalists were among the dead, leading the Paris-based group Reporters Without Borders to call it "the largest single massacre of journalists ever".
