Pinatay ngayong Lunes ng umaga, Agosto 10 ang chairperson ng Anakpawis na si Randall "Randy" Echanis sa sarili nitong bahay sa Novaliches, Quezon City ayon sa Anakpawis at Kilusang Magbubukid ng Pilipinas (KMP).

Si Echanis ay deputy secretary general ng KMP.

Saad ng Anakpawis, "Echanis, along with a still unidentified neighbor, was killed inside a rented house in Novaliches, Quezon City, during the wee hours of August 10."

Ayon pa sa former Anakpawis representative na si Ariel Casilao, si Echanis "was undergoing a medical treatment and unarmed, when police forces raided his house."

Saad pa ni Casilao, "Our anger is beyond words. This is a culture of extrajudicial killings with impunity under the Duterte regime. This is a declaratory act that national leaders of legal-democratic movement are now targeted to be killed by the Duterte regime. The entire civil society, human rights advocates, and freedom fighters must totally denounce this criminal act."
