2. BRIEF STATEMENT OF CLAIMS AND DEFENSES.
2.1. The plaintiffs fault the City of Muntinlupa for its
negligence in failing to clean the septic tank for
the period of nineteen (19) years resulting in an
accumulation of hydrogen sulphide gas which
killed the labourers. Moreover, such failure was
compounded by the fact that there was no
warning sign of the existing danger and no
efforts exerted by the defendant City of
Muntinlupa to neutralize or render harmless the
effects of the toxic gas.
