CEBU CITY, Philippines – A former kagawad in Brgy. Tagjaguimit in Naga City, Cebu spent the night in jail after he allegedly mauled his son, who is the barangay’s Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) chairman, and caused commotion during a barangay activity Sunday night, July 14.
In a report, the Naga City police said that SK Chairman Redgie Requinto, 22, was attending the SK Summer League that was held at the barangay’s covered court when his father, Carmilo, arrived.
Carmilo, who appeared to be drunk, allegedly mauled Redgie in front of the Summer League participants. He then started screaming and uttering unpleasant words.
