MANILA, Philippines — “An administrative case of Grave Misconduct (Reckless Imprudence Resulting in Serious Physical Injuries, Multiple Less Serious Physical Injuries and Damages to Property under Article 365 of the Revised Penal Code) was already filed against the Pilot-In-Command before the Internal Affairs Service in September 2020”.
Ito ang inihayag ni Philippine National Police (PNP) spokesperson Col. Ysmael Yu batay sa resulta ng imbestigasyon ng Special Investigation and Task Group (SITG) Bell 429 sa pangunguna ni Lt. Gen. Guillermo Eleazar dahil sa pagkamatay ni PNP Director for Comptrollership Major General Jose Maria Ramos.
“There was lack of situational awareness and evaluation of surroundings which are part of the protocol for safe and proper takeoff. There were some lapses in judgment on the part of the Pilot-In-Command that include underestimating the capability of the aircraft,” lahad nito.
