Barangay chair Mariano Fado wants "justice for what happened to our barangay." He asked higher authorities to investigate the incident and file appropriate charges against the culprits.

Fado said an armed group he refused to name had warned villagers to evacuate or their village would be torched.

"Unsa pud among kasalanan. Wala man ko kalaban na Muslim. Open man ko sa ila bakit ganun?" Fado said. (What is our sin? I don’t have Muslim enemies. What has this happened?) - Sun Star General Santos City
