MANILA, Philippines — In the wake of the shooting of a civilian by a village watchman, a lawmaker Tuesday said that only police personnel should be allowed to carry firearms amid the strict enhanced community quarantine in Metro Manila. 

 

This comes after the Manila Police District reported that authorities nabbed Cesar Panlaqui for the shooting of Eduardo Geñoga, reportedly a scavenger, who was found dead with a gunshot to the body along Tayuman street.

 

In a statement, Rep. Ruffy Biazon (Muntinlupa) said non-police personnel acting as force multipliers should not be allowed to carry guns during lockdowns as they lack training on proper firearm use.
