She revealed that the group was responsible in different terrorism acts happened during the martial law period like the Rustan’s bombing that killed innocent civilians.
“Meron hugot kasi… Jim keeps harping about the EJK or the people who died from drugs when his own mother was very much part of the LIGHT A FIRE MOVEMENT along w/ Steve Psinakis. They were responsible for bombing different establishments here including the old Philippine Plaza where innocent people died,” She wrote
Ms. Velez also narrated how artist Nonoy Zuñiga lost his leg after the explosion happed at the Westin Philippine Plaza’z Siete Pecados bar.
She also said that former President Cory Aquino pardoned the members of the movement.
