The Davao City Police Office (DCPO) reported a devastating fire at F. Bustamante National High School in Tibungco, Davao City, on January 14, causing an estimated P3 million in damages.

SMNI files motion to inhibit NTC execs
SONSHINE Media Network International (SMNI) has taken action against three National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) officials, filing a motion on January 4 to request their inhibition from an ongoing administrative case. The motion, filed by SMNI's legal representatives Mark Tolentino and Rolex Suplico, argues that NTC officials Commissioner Ella Lopez and Deputy Commissioners Jon Salvahan and Alvin Blanco should recuse themselves due to perceived bias. Tolentino pointed out a perceived conflict of interest within the NTC, stating, On its face, the show cause order suffers from a fatal flaw. NTC is the judge, NTC is also the complainant, and NTC is likewise the executioner. This is worse than an impartial judge, which is totally abhorred in this country. He emphasized the violation of due process, highlighting the necessity for the neutrality of an impartial judge. Suplico echoed these concerns, stating, In short, we cannot expect justice from the NTC in this case. This motion comes in response to NTC's issuance of a show cause order against SMNI in December 2023, which alleged franchise violations and resulted in a 30-day suspension. SMNI's legal counsel argued that the dual role of the NTC officials violates due process, stating, In the instant case… appearance of impartiality can never be obtained with the dual function of this Honorable Commission, that being the judge and complainant at the same time. Suplico also questioned why the case was not directly handled by the three NTC commissioners, expressing concerns about the authority of the hearing officer in conducting the hearing. He emphasized the significance of public interest in the case and raised doubts about the hearing officer's jurisdiction. The case has been submitted for resolution, with a decision expected soon. SMNI's lawyers have requested an extension until January 20 to file a responsive pleading. In a related development, Davao City-based legislator Margarita “Migs” Ignacia B. Nograles proposed a resolution urging the NTC to suspend SMNI's operations, citing alleged franchise violations and the dissemination of false information as grounds for suspension. Former president Rodrigo Duterte also criticized the suspension of two SMNI programs by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB), calling it a violation of his right to free expression. This motion by SMNI reflects the ongoing legal and regulatory challenges it faces, with implications for freedom of expression and due process. The resolution proposed by Nograles adds another layer of complexity to the situation, indicating the broader impact of these developments on media operations and regulatory oversight......»»
