The Department of Education (DepEd) on Tuesday condemned the barbaric murder of a Grade 9 student in Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu City and urged authorities to hasten the perpetrators&#8217; arrest.<\/p>\n<p>The victim, a 16-year-old student of Maribago High School, was found dead on a vacant lot on Monday after serving as a tithe collector for church on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>According to police reports, the victim was raped, murdered before being skinned to the skull.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement, DepEd said its Schools Division Office of Lapu-Lapu City already issued a memorandum reminding all public and private elementary and secondary schools to strengthen their existing rules and policies on school safety.<\/p>\n<p>It included security measures such as: restricting practices for school presentations and other school-related activities until 5 p.m. only; instructing school heads to advise learners to bring packed lunch or snacks instead of buying food outside school premises; ensuring that fully functional CCTV cameras are installed in strategic areas; requesting additional presence of police or barangay tanod (village watchmen) in the area; and advising students to always go in groups when out on the streets, especially when it is already dark.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As the Department calls on the local government unit and the police to swiftly bring to justice the cold-blooded criminals, it likewise enjoins the public in the shared responsibility of protecting children from all forms of abuse, violence, exploitation, and threat,&#8221; the statement read.<\/p>\n<p>The DepEd expressed its deepest condolences to the grieving family and requested its community for &#8220;voluntary contribution to provide the bereaved with adequate financial assistance&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANILA\u00a0&#8212;
