Hospital Scandal in Zamboanga

The Zamboanga City Police Office (ZCPO) has filed cases of illegal possession of firearm and ammunition and illegal discharge of firearm against a medical program coordinator of a nursing school in this city.

Senior Insp. Joel Tuttuh, ZCPO's Criminal Investigation and Detective Management (CIDM) chief, said facing charges before the City Prosecutor's Office is Jeffrey Aniñon, 34, head of the National Service Training Program of the Zamboanga Brent Hospital and Colleges located along R.T. Lim Boulevard here.

Tuttuh said the cases against Aniñon stemmed from the recovery of unlicensed caliber .357 Magnum revolver loaded with five ammunition and spent shell following an incident of accidental firing that injured a 20-year-old nursing student last Tuesday inside the premises of the hospital-school.

Tuttuh said that a case for illegal discharge of firearm was included since there was a victim, Faith Ann Vasquez, a 3rd year student who was wounded on her left hand.
