Malacañang on Tuesday condemned the reported shooting incident against the camp of presidential aspirant labor leader Ka Leody de Guzman in Bukidnon.
In a statement, Communications Secretary Martin Andanar said "violence has no place in any civilized society."
The Palace then urged authorities "to conduct a thorough investigation and prosecute those behind this dastardly act."
On Tuesday night, de Guzman said in a Twitter post that several armed men fired upon them while conducting a meeting with several tribesmen, farmers and other locals. Two people were wounded.
The tribesmen supposedly complained about the land grabbing incident in their community.
