UP to beef up security after stabbing incident

by Kiko Cueto

AFTER the stabbing incident that scares students and the faculty as it was done right inside the campus, the University of the Philippines-Diliman (UPD) said that they will continue to deploy more security personnel.

Earlier, the UP-Diliman said the incident has alarmed its students and faculty, as they tasked them to stay vigilant and report “anything suspicious to the authorities.”

“The UPD administration will continue deploying more security personnel in different areas of the campus,” the post read.

According to the UPD report, around 8 p.m., Monday, the campus police responded to a report of a stabbing incident at the National Science Complex (NSC).

The victim was immediately taken to a hospital and the Quezon City Police District took over the case.

No other details were provided.

The UPD NSC houses the research and academic institutes of the university.

Among them include the Marine Science Institute, National Institute of Geological Sciences, National Institute of Physics, National Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology and National Institute for Science and Mathematics Education Development.

The UPD, meanwhile, urged getting in touch with the Public Safety and Security Office at 0917-5971984 or the UPD Police at 8981-8500 local 113 in case of emergency.
