MANILA The Department of Social Welfare Department – Region 7 released the Lumad child in its custody days after the court granted the father’s habeas corpus plea on March 11.
The SOS Cebu team, along with the child’s father, gathered at the DSWD-7 office yesterday to facilitate the release of Mimi. However, the local DSWD refused to acknowledge the court order issued by the Cebu City Regional Trial Court Branch 20.
