9.) Q: Why was there a need to padlock the gate and secure the perimeter area?
A: Because the members of the GMARBAI group forcibly removed the padlock of the
gate and unlawfully entered the area contracted to LFC. That area was exclusively managed
and planted by the latter with Cavendish bananas.
10.) Q: Why did you say that the members of GMARBAI unlawfully entered the area?
A: Based on what I knew then, GMARBAI was the “NO” group that separated from
the original group of agrarian reform beneficiaries who contracted their lands with LFC.
To assert their claims, GMARBAI members entered the area without the consent of LFC
and despite the existence of the banana growership agreement.
11.) Q: When did the GMARBAI members forcibly enter the area?
A: Sometime in April 2016, if I’m not mistaken.
12.) Q: Why did LFC management decide to padlock the gate and secure the area only on
May 29, 2016?
A: I do not really know. I just followed orders. There was someone higher than me.
13.) Q: What other instructions did you give to the security guards?
A: I told them to observe the “no contact policy” and observe maximum tolerance. The
goals were only to padlock the gate and secure the perimeter area.
17.) Q: What did Johny Caro do after the gate was padlocked?
A: He ran to the canal near the gate to take cover.
19.) Q: If any, who were with Johny Caro at the time that he hid in the canal?
A: Jerome Amulata, Edgardo B. Macul and Julie Bermudez. They also hid in the canal
for their safety because of the stones being thrown.
