The Moro leader also extended his sympathies for Yumol’s bereaved family as he joined the chorus of calls for justice in this case.
“Nakikiramay kami sa pamilya ni Rolando Yumol at nananawagan kami sa mga otoridad na imbestigahan at papanagutin ang mga responsable sa pagpatay na ito,” he said.Hataman warned the public against promoting groundless speculations about the recent string of killings, especially on social media. He also urged the public to push back against the normalization of violence and killings in society, which he said, harms peace and development in the country.
“Huwag nating husgahan, silaban o gatungan ang mga nag-aalab na damdamin ng bawat pamilyang nagdadalamhati sa mga nangyari. Nagluluksa pa ang lahat. Ang mga haka-haka o akusasyong walang basehan ay hindi makakatulong, at maaaring maging mitsa pa ng karagdagang karahasan,” the lawmaker said.He then added: “Huwag nating hayaang maging normal ang pagkitil ng buhay sa ating kultura, lalo na kapag nadadamay ang mga inosenteng mamamayan.
Furigay’s aide Victor Capistrano and Ateneo security guard Jeneven Bandiala were also shot dead from the incident. Meanwhile, Hannah Rose Marian Furigay — the slain former mayor’s daughter — was wounded by a bullet fired by the suspect and is currently being treated in a hospital.
