She said she went to offices as the MHO, IPO, the Mayor's Office, and the office of the barangay captain of San Pedro to follow-up what she reported to them last January 3, that people who do not possess permit for the diggings, are even today continue to make their dig even more-that when she visited the graves of her relatives there, it stinked and she nearly vomited.
