AFP Statement On the UP Incident

From DWDD the AFP Civil Relations Service Radio Website (Oct 27): AFP Statement On the UP Incident



Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City, (DWDD)–The AFP acknowledges that there were AFP personnel inside the premises of the University of the Philippines recently.

 They were there on a legitimate national security operation. University students and members of the UP faculty were not the subject of that operation as alleged by some quarters.
 
 It was a transparent operation that was properly coordinated with the local police. Likewise, there was no intent to violate the existing 1989 agreement between the DND and UP.
 
 The AFP humbly apologizes for the incident and assures the public and the UP that any inconvenience that arose out of this incident is not intentional.  We will work to ensure that this does not happen again.
 
 Our security operations are all done in the best interest of our people and that these are pursued so as to prevent crimes and terroristic acts against our citizens.
 
 As the legitimate and constitutionally mandated protectors of our people, the AFP is committed to maintain the highest levels of honor, professionalism and dedication in its rank because we know that we are accountable to our people.
