Mariing kinondena ni Vice President Sara Duterte ang pananambang kay Lanao del Sur Governor Mamintal Adiong sa Maguing, Lanao del Sur.
Ayon kay Duterte, walang puwang sa bansa ang karahasan.
“I condemn the ambush that apparently targeted Lanao del Sur Gov. Mamintal Adiong in the town of Maguing Friday,” pahayag ni Duterte.
“As a nation, we should collectively reject this cowardly act of violence and demand that the perpetrators are immediately brought to justice,” dagdag ni Duterte.
Patay ang tatlong pulis at drayber ni Adiong nang pagbabarilin ng hindi nakilalang suspek.
“I commiserate with the bereaved families of the four security escorts of Gov. Adiong who died in the ambush,” pahayag ni Duterte.
“I pray for the speedy recovery of Gov. Adiong and the other injured person,” dagdag ni Duterte.
Si Adiong ay kapartido ni Duterte sa Lakas-CMD at nagsisilbing vice president ng grupo sa Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.
