In a display of support and assistance, the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) stepped in to facilitate the arrangements specifically for the young 5-year-old victim.
This intervention was crucial as both of the child’s parents are currently working overseas as overseas Filipino workers (OFWs).
The agency’s involvement underscores the broader support network available to families of OFWs in times of crisis.
The circumstances surrounding the young girl’s presence at the airport paint a particularly poignant picture.
She was there to bid farewell to her father, who was scheduled to embark on a journey to the Czech Republic for work.
What was intended to be a moment of familial send-off tragically turned into the scene of a fatal accident.
Adding to the family’s grief, the child's mother, who was also injured in the incident, has undergone surgery to address abdominal injuries and is currently in recovery, supported by her mother-in-law, who was also among those injured in the SUV's impact.
Understandably, the family has chosen to grieve privately and has declined to face the media during this incredibly difficult period.
Meanwhile, in Bulacan, the 28-year-old male victim is now lying in state in Hagonoy, where his family and friends have gathered to pay their respects.
As the community grapples with the tragedy and the families begin the arduous process of mourning, the wheels of justice have begun to turn.
According to the NAIA Police, today, Monday, May 5, 2025, marks the expected release of the results from the medical examination conducted on the 47-year-old driver of the sports utility vehicle (SUV) that collided with the victims.
This crucial examination includes toxicology screenings for both alcohol and drug use, standard protocol in cases involving vehicular fatalities.
Furthermore, the driver is slated to undergo inquest proceedings at the Pasay Prosecutor's Office.
This legal process will determine if there is sufficient probable cause to file criminal charges against the driver.
Given the severity of the incident, which resulted in the loss of two lives and caused injuries to others, the driver potentially faces serious charges, including Reckless Imprudence Resulting in two counts of Hom1cide, along with charges for multiple physical injuries and damage to property.
The driver remains in the custody of the NAIA Police as the investigation continues and the legal proceedings commence.
Authorities are diligently working to piece together all the contributing factors that led to this devastating event at the airport, aiming to provide clarity and accountability for the victims and their families.
