Killing of teen studying at home hit
By J.Lo
“Deeply concerned and alarmed with recent incidents of brutal killings of minors, especially girls,” Department of Education (DepEd) denounced killing of 14-year-old girl while she was studying at her residence in Talisay City, Cebu.
DepEd highlighted fundamental right of every student to pursue their education without fear for their safety, whether they are learning at home or in school.
It also called for unity in face of such senseless acts of violence.
“We urge local authorities and community to come together in solidarity against violence and to ensure safety of all learners,” DepEd said.
Probe showed victim was answering her learning modules when unidentified assailant forcibly entered their home and shot her to death.
DepEd extended its condolences to grieving family, friends and classmates of the victim, urging swift and thorough investigation by authorities to ensure justice is served.
Meanwhile, authorities are exploring possible connections to illegal drug activities involving victim’s relatives.
