SOUTH KOREA - Patuloy ang pagluluksa ng South Korea sa nangyaring stampede sa halloween party sa Itaewon, Seoul na ikinamatay ng higit isandaan at limampu. Sarado ang karamihan ng bars at establisyimento sa Itaewon. Kinansela rin ang malakihang event ng city-governments at private companies. Wala ring fireworks display maging sa Gwang-anli beach sa Busan.

Hanggang ngayon, nakararanas pa rin ng trauma ang Pinoy na si Jhumar Tablatin na isa sa mga dumalo sa party. Nakita niya ang trahedya.

Bali nasa kabilang alley lang naman kasi kami. Naawa ako don sa mga biktima. Sa eight years ko dito, ngayon lang nangyari ito. Sobrang dami kasi ng tao siguro dahil after na rin ng pandemic ngayon lang ulit nagkaroon ng holloween party,” sabi ni Jhumar.

Maging ang OFW na si Nel Gigante, ikinahabala ang nangyari dahil may mga kaibigan siyang nakadalo sa dapat sana'y masayang pagtitipon. Maging siya mismo takot ngayong magpunta sa mga pagtitipon.

“Malungkot kasi maraming buhay ang nasayang lalo mga kabataan. Nagkaroon lang ako ng kaunting trauma lalo sa mga sobrang siksikan at mataong lugar. Sobrang nakakatakot lalo kung ikaw malalagay sa mismong sitwasyon na ganun,” ani Nel.

Ayon kina Nel at Jhumar, may natutunan sila sa nangyaring trahedya.

Mas magiging maingat na lang next time. Doble ingat tapos iiwasan na lang yung mga crowded areas. Aattend pa rin naman siguro pero hindi na pupunta sa mga matataong lugar, pahayag ni Jhumar.

A-attend pa rin ako pero safety first ika nga, sabi ni Nel.

Bukod sa mga South Korean, dalawamput-anim na dayuhan ang namatay sa trahedya. Bibigyan ng gobyerno ng South Korea ng tulong ang mga pamilya ng mga naulilia at tutulong din sa gastusin sa pagpapalibing.

MANILA — Authorities are investigating armed groups that may be behind the shooting of Vice Mayor Mohammad Omar Abpi Samama of Datu Piang, Maguindanao del Sur, an official said Wednesday.

Police Col. Randulf Tuaño, chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP) Public Information Office, said the police are still trying to identify Samama's assailant and have yet to conclude that the attack is related to the elections.

Pursuit operations are ongoing.

“[Ang suspek po] ay nasa labas ng crowd area…posible po na isang sniper ang bumaril. Since covered po ‘yong area, walang malinaw na clear shot po ‘yong suspek,” Tuano said.

(The suspect was outside the crowd area… it’s possible that a sniper was responsible for the shooting. Since the area was covered, there is no clear shot for the suspect.)

“Ang suspek po natin ngayon ay isang armed group. Hindi po siya ma-declare na political sapagkat kung political po, ito po ay mangangailangan ng revalidation,” he added.

(The suspect is from an armed group. We cannot declare this as political yet because, if it were political, it would require revalidation.)

Samama, who is seeking re-election, was shot in the abdomen by an unidentified assailant on Monday morning while delivering a message at a public service event.

Tuaño said the official is now in stable condition and still recovering in the hospital.

COTABATO SHOOTING

Meanwhile, the police are also considering an armed group to be behind the separate ambush of engineer Israel Abas Angas in Cotabato City on Tuesday night.

“May ongoing operations against four suspects po — armed group din po,” Tuaño said.

(There are ongoing operations against four suspects — they are also an armed group.)

Reports indicate that Angas was driving his vehicle when the suspects, riding motorcycles, ambushed him in the Kanto Nayon Shariff area of Barangay Rosary Heights 3 in Cotabato City.

The victim was declared dead upon arrival at the hospital.
