Ilocos Norte Gov. Imee Marcos on Tuesday urged authorities and schools to ensure the safety of learning institutions following a supposed rape incident at the Ateneo De Manila University-Loyola campus over the weekend.

Marcos also called on probers to leave no stone unturned in getting into the bottom of the alleged rape incident.

“Predators should not be allowed in campuses. If true, this incident in one of the country’s most respected educational institutions is a serious cause for concern and should be a wake-up call for security personnel in all campuses throughout the country,” Marcos stressed.

The governor also said that as the students’ second home, schools are duty bound to keep a safe environment for them that is conducive to learning.

“We must make sure that the schools where our children spend their days are safe and free from criminal elements,” she added.
