Jemboy is buried on the same day the family of Kian delos Santos commemorates his sixth death anniversary
, who was killed by cops in Navotas City on August 2, was laid to rest on Wednesday, August 16, shortly before 5pm.
Jemboy was escorted to his final resting place in La Loma Cemetery, Caloocan City, by his family, friends, and even strangers who call for justice. At around 1 pm, the teenager’s hearse left their house in Barangay NBBS Kaunlaran, Navotas City, for his final funeral Mass at the San Lorenzo Ruiz and Companion Martyrs Parish Church. Caloocan Bishop Pablo Virgilio David, president of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines , led the Holy Mass.
In his homily, David admonished the police, saying that cops are not the law, but enforcers of the law. The bishop also said Jemboy was murdered, and his killing by police should not have been classified as mere reckless imprudence resulting in homicide. Aside from the CBCP president, over 10 priests, including activist-priests Fr. Flavie Villanueva and Fr. Robert Reyes, helped in the Mass for Jemboy’s soul. The priests also carried the boy’s casket to the hearse that held a big photo of Jemboy.
