The
Philippine Coastguard has denied the issue regarding three deaths due to
drowning in Boracay this past week.
According
to PO1 Bobby Elbano of Coast Guard Boracay, they don’t even know where the information
came from while they are the ones with the data of like incidents in the Island.
Recently,
news about three victims who drowned and died in Boracay had come out in the
national media, the reason why Coastguard Boracay had to dig into their records
to explain this matter to the District Command.
Elbano
stated that there are indeed incidents of drowning in the Island but these had occurred
on three separate dates.
One
of which had happened last July 29 where an 18 year old female from Iloilo
drowned and died.
With
the other cases, they only received a confirmation from the hospitals, where in
one of its victim is a Korean national.
Elbano
also said that if there are like-incidents in Boracay and no one has given them
information, it is still their responsibility to investigate and have it
confirmed.
