MANILA, Philippines — Isang sundalo ng Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) ang natagpuang patay sa loob ng kanyang  quarters  sa  AFP Headquarters sa Camp Aguinaldo.

Si Col. Rolando Escalona, Jr., na  military lawyer at miyembro ng Judge Advocate General’s Service ay nadiskubreng wala nang  buhay  nitong Nobyembre 22.

Kinumpirma naman ni  AFP  Spokesperson Col Francel Margareth Padilla ang  insidente  kasabay  ng pahayag na  nakikipagtulungan na sila sa Phi­lippine National Police (PNP) upang matukoy ang  dahilan ng  pagkamatay ni Escalona.

Si Escalona ay may tama ng  bala ng  baril sa katawan kaya inaalam na rin kung  iisa ang baril na nakita sa tabi nito sa  kanyang tama.

Hindi umano nila isinasantabi ang foul play sa insidente kaya dapat na isagawa ang “complete at impartial investigation” sa kaso.

“We extend our deepest condolences to the family of Colonel Escalona during this difficult time. The AFP is committed to ensuring a complete and impartial investigation to shed light on this matter,” ani Padilla.
