Senator Christopher ''Bong'' Go on Friday expressed intention to conduct a Senate probe into the incident involving a 17-year-old taekwondo practitioner who suffered injuries after her coach allegedly set her up to spar with a heavier male black belt.
The senator said a coach should have monitored the sparring session so that one could guide the athletes during training.''Dapat may naka-monitor na coach lalo na sa contact sports. Ang coach din ang dapat umalalay sa mga atleta kapag nagti-training sila. Hindi lang ito usapin ng mismatch. Usapin din ito ng posibleng violation ng karapatan ng isang menor de edad,'' Go said.
