BAYOMBONG, Nueva Vizcaya - - A trial is expected to publicize alleged
human rights violations committed by OceanaGold Philippines Inc. (OGPI),
two years after the mining company reportedly demolished houses in a
Didipio, Kasibu village in this province.

This was disclosed by Peter Duyapat, chairperson of Didipio Earth-Savers
Multipurpose Association (Desama), which represents communities
displaced by the mining company's operations.
