Four Individuals Subpoenaed Over Anti-Corruption Rally Violence
Authorities have subpoenaed four individuals linked to the violence during the anti-corruption rallies last September 21. The Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) is leading the investigation to uncover the full extent of their involvement.
“Of those four, only one has so far appeared,” CIDG public information chief Maj. Helen dela Cruz reported. The agency continues to urge the others to comply with the subpoena and assist in clarifying their roles amid the unrest.
Investigation Progress and Public Response
Officials reported that the subpoenas are part of a broader effort to hold accountable those allegedly responsible for violence that disrupted the peaceful demonstrations. Community members have expressed support for the investigation, emphasizing the importance of transparency and justice.
Local leaders noted that the anti-corruption rallies, while largely peaceful, were marred by isolated incidents of violence. These actions prompted authorities to act swiftly and thoroughly to prevent further escalation.
Calls for Cooperation
Law enforcement agencies have reiterated their call for the subpoenaed individuals to come forward. Cooperation is crucial to ensure a fair and comprehensive inquiry that respects the rights of all involved.
“We hope those summoned will understand the gravity of the situation and participate accordingly,” community representatives said. The CIDG remains committed to uncovering the truth behind the events of September 21.
Looking Ahead
As the investigation continues, officials reassure the public that thorough measures are in place to maintain peace and order. They also encourage citizens to report any relevant information that may assist in resolving the case.
