The Philippine Army said on former soldiers' mental health: 'Even though they are no longer soldiers, they continue fighting a silent and lifelong battle.'
Quezon City Police District“However, there are different accounts of what transpired, including clashing narratives on whether the victim had a pistol in his sling bag, which the police claims as a sign of imminent danger, thus resulting to the shooting,” she said.ReportsThe CHR said it is acknowledging this and is hopeful for its unbiased probe.
“At this point, we look forward to QCPD’s fair and impartial investigations. And similar to cases of alleged ’self-defense’ when confronted with imminent danger, we also reiterate our call to allow the rule of law to prevail and let the scrutiny of the proper courts weigh in on the question if the circumstances are justifiable to warrant the shooting, which eventually resulted to a death,” De Guia said.
The CHR also stressed that law enforcers must “always remain respectful of human rights , even in the face of a national health emergency” as it implements quarantine and lockdowns.
