The 14-year-old boy who allegedly stabbed his 13-year-old classmate to death inside a Las Piñas City school has undergone inquest proceedings for a murder case, the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) said on Monday.
“As of now, he’s at Bahay Pag-asa. He’s in temporary custody there,” NCRPO spokesperson Maj. Hazel Asilo told reporters when asked about the whereabouts of the accused.
She also said the suspect “underwent inquest proceedings last Saturday [upon] the recommendation of the fiscal.”
