COTABATO CITY–No sufficient evidence.
The City Prosecutor’s Office in Kidapawan City has dismissed due to insufficient evidence the complaint filed against three police officers of North Cotabato who were accused of torturing suspects in the bombing of a bus that left nine people killed in October last year.
In a 10-page resolution dated Sept. 26 and released recently, City Prosecutor Al Calica and Assistant Prosectuor Melvin Lamata said they found no sufficient evidence to charge Supt. Alexander C. Tagum, operations chief of the North Cotabato police, Insp. Joan R. Resurrecion and PO2 Manuel de Guzman Marquez Jr. with violation of Republic Act 9745 or the anti-torture law.
