He denied the MNLF fighters are burning the houses.
"Bakit sunugin namin nadito kami. Di man pwede yan. Yung first sunog mas mabuti may civilian, sinabi ko sa MNLF pagtulungan para hindi kumulat ang sunog. Always na pinapasabugan nila ng m...ortar. Pinapabayaan namin. Bahala sila. 'Yun ang kagustuhan nila yun," Malik said.
(Why should we burn [the houses] when we are here? That can't be. It was good there were civilians during the first fire. I told the MNLF troops that we should help them so the fire does not spread. But [the military] kept firing mortar shells. We let it go. That's what they want, so be it.)
"Palagay nila maiipit kami. Hindi naman. Meron din daanan. Kahit masunog na, mayroon pa maiiwan. Ang bahay na sunog, bahay pa rin," he added. (They think we will be trapped. No. There are still ways [to escape]. Even if we are eliminated, some will still be left. A burnt house is still a house.) — Rappler.com
