The Department of Transportation issued a stern warning to those who illegally uploaded the CCTV footage of the NAIA Terminal 1 incident yesterday.

During a press conference, DOTr Secretary Vince Dizon appealed to the public not to take advantage of the tragedies that have occurred.

"Huwag niyo naman i-take advantage 'yung mga trahedya ng mga kababayan natin para mag-post ng mga video nung trahedya sa internet para lang kumita o para maka-scoop," said Dizon.

He also stated that he sought the assistance of the PNP Cybercrime unit, led by the Philippine National Police Anti-Cybercrime Group (ACG) Chief Director Brig. Gen. Bernard Yang.

DOTr asked to immediately investigate all those who illegally uploaded the CCTV footage of the NAIA Terminal 1 tragedy.

Dizon also wanted to find out why the CCTV footage leaked out and why it was publicized when, in fact, it should only be with the PNP for investigation.

"Maawa naman kayo. Mahiya naman kayo. Namatayan na nga, pagkakakitaan niyo pa," said Dizon.

News, photos or videos that arouse the interest of netizens would often go viral on social media, due to the attention netizens give them. These viral posts appeal to the emotions of netizens, and in rare cases, such could also happen to ordinary people, making them very relatable.

In a previous report by KAMI, the CCTV footage of the actual incident in NAIA Terminal 1 showed an important detail about the case. It can be recalled that in a statement given by the SUV driver, he told the authorities that a sedan suddenly passed in front of him when he was about to leave the departure area after dropping off a passenger. Reportedly, in a Facebook post by LTO, "This sent him to panic, and instead of the brakes, he stepped on the gas pedal. As a result, two people died and three others were injured." However, as reported by GMA 7's 'Unang Balita,' the CCTV footage showed otherwise; there was no sedan that passed in front of him before he accelerated into the crowd of people that day.

Additionally, the Overseas Filipino Worker, father of the 5-year-old girl victim in the NAIA Terminal 1 incident yesterday, has no longer proceeded to leave the country. In a report by GMA 7's 'Unang Balita,' he and other family members went to a Pasay funeral facility where the initial processing of the deceased victims was made. The OFW father of the girl victim personally took his daughter's remains and will be bringing them to Lipa City, Batangas.
