THE Department of Education in Central Visayas assured the students that it will not tolerate any gang-related incident following the Cebu City Police Office’s statement that youth gangs may have recurred in schools recently.
DepEd 7 Director Salustiano Jimenez told SunStar Cebu on Monday, October 17, 2022, that they have not received reports of gang-related incidents in both public and private elementary and high schools since after the two separate incidents involving minors. One of the incidents was the stabbing of a student from Mabolo National High School. The student was on his way home on the night of September 14 when he was stabbed.
Another student was mauled by a group of teens inside the Regino Mercado Memorial National High School in Barangay Pahina-Central on September 16. These incidents fueled suspicions that the fighting between the members of school-based gangs Bloods and Crips has resurrected.Jimenez said the DepEd mandated all school personnel, particularly in public schools, not to condone any feud or commotions among the students and address them immediately.SunStar website welcomes friendly debate, but comments posted on this site do not necessarily reflect the views of the SunStar management and its affiliates.
