The RMCSOL released a statement today regarding the death of Enrilie Andalique, who allegedly strangled and stabbed to death by an unknown perpetrator.

The official statement reads: “With deep sadness, we announce the passing of one of our students –ENRILIE ANDALIQUE. With unspeakable outrage, we denounce his killing! 

We have yet to receive the official report about the details of his death and the official statement from his family. Without any determinative conclusion to his case, we will continue to seek justice for our fallen student.

We pray for the eternal repose of his soul and for strength for his family during this most difficult time. May he rest in peace.”

Friends and classmates remember Andalique as a bright student with determination. One of his classmates said, he recited cases vehemently and with a passion, despite the often less-favorable internet connection. He was more than willing to stay in and spend the nights in internet cafes, just so he could take his (online) exams.

As of posting time, police investigators are still determining those responsible for the death of Andalique.
