A concerned community leader named Delia Monilla reported the said incident saying that the grandmother (who was a former community treasurer) got furious at her granddaughter,
“The grandmother said she was fed up with the girl for repeatedly stealing money. She said the P20 stolen from her was not the first time the little girl did it, in fact the girl has stolen about P7,000 from her already.”
Because of the abuse, the Tagum City Police Chief Supt. Laudemer Laude stated that they would coordinate with the City Social Welfare Development Office in filing charges against the grandmother
Monilla added that the child’s mother is an OFW in the Middle East while her father (the son of her guardian) left them for no reason. She also said that as far as she is concerned, the 10-year old girl is not being neglected and that she also has two other siblings. Other neighbours said that the girl indeed stole the said amount most likely to buy something to eat.
Meanwhile Tagum City Police Chief Supt. Laudemer Laude said that they will coordinate with the City Social Welfare Development Office in filing charges against the child’s grandmother.
