The Compostela Valley-based 10th Infantry Division has
assured it will cooperate with an ongoing police probe on the fatal shooting
incident involving one of its troopers in Tagum City last Aug. 7.
Capt. Rhyan Batchar, 10th Infantry Division public affairs
office chief, identified the suspect as Pfc. Ian Paul Pascua, a member of the
60th Infantry Battalion.
Pascua is held by police and undergoing investigation for
the shooting and killing of Juan Clarion Alvarez, 62, at Purok Maharlika,
Barangay Cuambugon, Tagum
City
Batchar said Pascual initially escaped but decided to
surrender to his company commander later that day.
"We will fully support and cooperate on the
investigations that the Philippine National Police and other concerned agencies
undertake. The command does not condone any misbehavior or participation in
criminal acts of our soldiers," Batchar said.
