Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto on Sunday called on the management of Regent Foods Corporation (RFC) to rethink their position on the charges filed against 23 people who have been arrested after a violent picket dispersal of striking Regent workers last week.

“To the management of Regent Foods Corporation, these people are not criminals; they do not have the goal of hurting you. They are fighting for what they believe to be just,” Sotto said in a Facebook post.

According to Eastern Police District, a commotion erupted between the striking workers and the security personnel that led the anti-riot police to disperse the groups and arrest the 23 strikers. According to Sotto, the complaints were filed by the private security agency hired by Regent to disperse the workers on strike, “but the management has admitted that they are behind the complaints.”
