Missing Moro teacher’s kins appeal for help

COTABATO CITY/Dec. 4 – The relatives of the Moro school teacher in South Cotabato who has been missing since Dec. 2 are calling upon the officials of South Cotabato, particularly of Polomolok town, and the Bangsamoro Autonomous Regon in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) to help locate the said teacher dead or alive.
A teacher at the Poblacion Polomolok National High School in Poblacion, Polomolok, South Cotabato, Mohamir Malo Adam has been missing since Dec. 2.  

Rudy Lumapinet, Adam’s first cousin, said “the teacher reported to the Poblacion Polomolok National High School in the early morning of Dec. 2. Then, at about 2 p.m. that day, he left the school to go home aboard his Kawasaki Bajaj motorcycle.  His wife, Haidana, was surprised when the teacher was not able to come home until the evening.”

Haidana is also a teacher in the same school.

Lumapinet said they sought the help of the Polomolok municipal police station but ‘the police did nothing in locating the victim.’

“Meanwhile, we are calling upon the officials of South Cotabato, particularly that of the municipality of Polomolok, and the BARMM to help us in locating Adam,” Lumapinet said.

“We are hoping that Adam is still alive. But even if he is already dead, we need his body to give it a decent burial,” Lumapinet said.

When he was a student in the Mindanao State University (MSU) in General Santos City, Adam was the president of the Muslim Students Association (MUSA).

He graduated from MSU with a degree of Bachelor of Science in Mathematics
