The Court of Appeals says the granting of Maria Ressa’s motion to travel abroad is warranted by necessity and urgency, humanitarian reasons, and enough evidence that she is not a flight risk.

Aside from attending lectures, the Rappler CEO also indicated in her latest motion that she intends to visit her parents in Florida, which the CA found as a humanitarian reason to grant her motion.
