                    [Summary] => Senators are planning to decriminalize libel, meaning the penalty of imprisonment would be abolished for such an offense.


The lawmakers announced such plans as the Senate committee on public information and mass media chaired by opposition Sen. Teresa Aquino-Oreta opened an inquiry into the arrest of Tribune publisher Ninez Cacho Olivares, who is facing several libel cases in Makati City.

Sen. Edgardo Angara said the crime of libel should be decriminalized or stricter restrictions should be imposed in the enforcement of the libel law.
