Resigned Ateneo de Manila University men’s basketball head coach Thomas Anthony “Tab” Baldwin will appear before the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Homicide Division on Monday after his appearance was rescheduled in connection with the ongoing probe into the deaths of two student-athletes in Aurora province.
The appearance of Baldwin was initially scheduled by NBI Director Melvin Matibag on Friday but was moved Monday (22 June) to accommodate adjustments in the investigation schedule.
The NBI chief confirmed that Baldwin will now be required to present himself before NBI investigators on Monday as part of the fact-finding inquiry into the deaths of cagers Rene Clert “Bobet” Baterbonia and Divine Adili.
It earlier issued summons to Baldwin, along with other Ateneo officials and members of the men’s basketball program, as part of its investigation into the fatal incident that occurred during a team-building activity in Dipaculao, Aurora on 8 June.
The Ateneo BlueEagles coach had previously failed to appear before the NBI on Tuesday.
Atty. Karl Justeen David, Baldwin’s legal counsel, explained that his client was unable to attend the scheduled appearance due to his condition at the time and was not fit to personally face investigators.
The summons according to the NBI forms part of its continuing effort to establish the circumstances surrounding the deaths of Baterbonia and Adili during the team activity.
