MANILA, Philippines – Matapos ang masusing pag-aaral, hindi na kakasuhan ng Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) si Mae Paner o mas kilala sa tawag na “Juana Change.”

Sinabi ni Armed Forces of the Philippines spokesperson Brig. Gen. Restituto Padilla na iniutos ni AFP Chief of Staff General Eduardo Año na muling pag-aralan ang isyu kay Paner na nagsuot ng military uniform noong State of the Nation Address ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte nitong Lunes.

“Ms. Paner did not actually ridicule soldiers but even praised the sacrifices of our men in uniform,” paliwanag ni Padilla ngayong Biyernes.

“Based on this information and other findings, the AFP will no longer pursue the case but calls upon Ms. Paner and other unauthorized individuals to henceforth desist from the inappropriate use of our uniforms,” dagdag niya.

Iginiit naman ng tagapagsalita ang kahalagahan ng pagsusuot ng military uniform na “very sacred” para sa kanila.

“She and the others must understand that the particular uniform she wore is the battle dress attire of our armed forces. It is the same uniform our soldiers wear whenever we go to battle and the same uniform many of our heroes die wearing in the battlefield and in the defense of the Motherland and our people. This is the very reason we hold this particular uniform very sacred,” patuloy ni Padilla.

Inalok din nila si Paner na sumali sa kanilang hanay upang mahikayat ang mga Pilipino na sumapi.

Balak sanang kasuhan ng AFP si Paner dahil sa ilegal na pagsusuot ng military uniform.

Anila labag ito sa Article 179 of the Republic Penal Code Unauthorized Use of Uniforms) at Republic Act  493 (Prohibition of Use of Insignias, Decorations , Badges and patches prescribed for the AFP.
