Parañaque City Mayor Edwin Olivarez yesterday ordered an investigation into the festival in Baclaran last Monday.
“We will check and see if there was a shortcoming among barangay officials in Baclaran, as well as law enforcers assigned in the area,” the mayor said.
It was after the video was captured that some young people joined the game without wearing face masks.
A parallel investigation into the incident was ordered to identify those involved in the mass gathering at the Sta. Rita De Casia.
PNP chief, P/Gen. Guillermo Eleazar ordered the Southern Police District to investigate the festival held in Baclaran, where there was a violation of health protocols.
