Areas of Concerns

• Bombing of Towers

• Right-Of-Way (ROW) issues where the NGCP personnel could

not cut/trim trees growing and remove structures under the
transmission lines

• Refusal of landowners to give access to the NGCP for the repair

of Transmission Tower #25 in Lanao del Sur
Initial Actions

 Creation of an Inter-Agency Task Force for the Security of Energy Facilities

chaired by Secretary of DOE;
 Activation of Special Civilian Active Auxiliary (SCAA) in the area where there
was bombing of transmission towers;
 Intensify military and police operations in the area;
 Intervention of DILG officials requiring the LCEs to mediate on the ROW issue;
and
 The PNP to strengthen case build-up, manhunt operations and filing of cases
against the perpetrators.

all of Barangay Rajahmuida, Pikit Cotobato, by the elements of Pikit MPS for Violation
of RA 8294 (Illegal Possession of Explosives);

 Violation of Art 324 of the RPC (Crimes involving destruction) was filed against Anwar
