The Compostela Valley-based 10th Infantry Division
vehemently denied reports claiming that soldiers from its 67th and 66th
Infantry Battalions were camping inside schools in New Bataan, Compostela Valley
"The 10th Infantry Division note with grave concern the
allegations of Save Our School Network(SOS - SMR against soldiers of 67th and
66th Infantry Battalions for allegedly encamping inside a school building at
Barangay Pagsabangan, New Bataan and with community households 10 meters from a
school at Barangay Panansalan, Compostela town, both of Compostela Valley
Province since Saturday," 10th Infantry Division public affairs office
chief Capt. Rhyan Batchar said.
Further investigations revealed that the 67th Infantry
Battalion does not have troops in New Bataan while records show that 66th
Infantry Battalion soldiers were given permission by barangay officials to stay
in the vicinity as long as they do not enter civilian homes and school
premises.
"As we have always said, the 10th Infantry Division
welcomes reports against our troops and encourages those who were victimized to
file their complaints in appropriate agencies as we do not tolerate any
misbehavior by our soldiers," Batchar said.
