Former Philippine dictator Marcos ‘sneakily’ buried at heroes’ cemetery

Former Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos was buried today at the National Heroes' Cemetery despite the protests from victims of Human Rights abuses that came to underline his 21 years of power.

The announcement of the burial was done without any advanced notice, shocking many anti-Marcos activists who hoped to keep former President out of the Cemetery, which is generally reserved for soldiers and some popular national leaders.
