Investigation revealed that Dormitorio died from “blunt force trauma” last Wednesday.There are three “persons of interest” in Dormitorio’s death, police said, and concluded that the cadet was a victim of hazing.
The PMA admitted that “a handful of cadets may have lost their way, and their appalling acts deserve utmost criticism and condemnation.” “It is unfortunate that a life has been lost. We pledge that no stone will be left unturned. All perpetrators will be held liable to the full extent of the law,” it said.The country’s premier military training school also vowed to initiate changes to prevent a repeat of the incident.
“Such a distressing incident challenges us to ask ourselves on how we can be better as educators and trainers, as officers and mentors and ultimately as parents to our cadets… The adherence of the cadets towards the PMA character development across the four classes will be reviewed,” it said.RELATED STORY
