GAMU, Isabela – Authorities are still investigating the cause of two explosions that rocked Camp Melchor de la Cruz, headquarters of the Army’s 5th Infantry Division here Monday morning.

Authorities, however, discounted the possibility of the blasts being perpetrated by terrorist groups or lawless elements, and instead eyed soldier-applicants who have been rejected.

Reports said the twin explosions, which took place at around 1 a.m. Monday, slightly damaged the 5th ID’s re-enlistment office.

A few days earlier, the 5th ID had finalized its recruitment process with only 245 out of 600 candidate soldiers making the mark.
