“Its serious consequences against the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of individuals, most especially minors, should have no place in academic institutions,” said the CHR.
The CHR also reiterated its call to strengthen the implementation of Republic Act No. 11053 or the Anti-Hazing Act of 2018, urging the Philippine National Police and the Commission on Higher Education “to enact systems, policies, and mechanisms to put an end to the antithetical culture of hazing.” “The Commission extends its condolences to the victim’s family and loved ones and calls for justice to be served. Once again, it is our collective responsibility to create safe environments where everyone is equal and free, in consonance with the values of respect, dignity, and inclusion,” said the CHR.
Salilig’s body was found on Tuesday, bearing marks of beating. As part of its welcome rites, the Tau Gamma Phi reportedly delivered around 70 blows to the student.RELATED STORIES:
