He would have graduated from the University of Southern Mindanao’s Agriculture program. The victim’s mother told Bombo Radyo that her son just went to his aunt in Barangay Buayan M’lang Cotabato to ask for rice to go home.
His cousins, on the other hand, allegedly invited him to go fishing, based on the article. They were attempting to catch more fish in the fishpond by using the live wire of the Cotabato Electric Cooperative (Cotelco).
According to the report, the group returned and apparently ate about midday, but the victim allegedly returned and re-plugged the electric wire. He was shocked after reconnecting the cable because his entire body was soaked.
