Cellsite caretaker Bartolome Alidon, who was not harmed by the perpetrators, reported to the police early yesterday morning that he noticed the tower’s transmission lines were already smoldered. Bohol PNP Director P/SSupt. Arturo Evangelista however disregard the possibility that it was the doing of armed rebels.
