BIAN CITYThere is no Christmas tree, lantern or any holiday decoration

inside the Sailog house in a village here.
Instead, at the center of the 12-square meter house lay a shiny, white coffin
with an empty biscuit tin waiting for abuloy, or donations for the dead.

Look, she seems to be smiling at me, said Kimberly Sailog, 32, as she
looked down on the corpse of her daughter, Kristine Joy, 12, inside the coffin
which nearly occupied the whole first floor of the two-story house that had
been built entirely out of scrap plywood and other materials.
The house, with no numbered
address, had been home to Kristine

Joy, who on Wednesday became the

latest collateral damage in President
Dutertes bloody war on drugs.
Like any other teenager, Kristine Joy
had loved to play and take selfies,
which she did on a mobile phone

that Kimberly gave to Kristine Joy on

the childs 12th birthday in
November.
This Christmas, Kristine Joy would have received her Christmas wish, to
have her teeth fixed, for which Kimberly saved up money from her income
as a house helper.
On Wednesday evening, Kimberly came home from work and found
Kristine Joy all prepped up for the Christmas dawn Mass at 10 p.m.
I told her I was tired, but she really wanted to attend Mass that night, said
Kimberly.
The church was just around the block in Barangay San Antonio, where the
Sailogs also lived, so Kimberly acceded to Kristine Joys request.
The Mass had just started when Kimberly had to go to the bathroom. She
took Kristine Joy with her and left her two other children, ages 16 and 15,
inside the church.
Two shots suddenly rang out, followed by a few more. Kristine Joy
immediately fell to the ground.
According to police, motorcycle-riding gunmen were targeting village
watchman Allan Fernandez, 37. But stray bullets found their way to Kristine
Joy and another churchgoer, Rowena Flores. The bullet went through
Kristine Joys chest, almost piercing her heart.
No one helped us because the people scampered away and the churchs
door was closed, except for this tricycle driver who volunteered to bring us
to the hospital, Kimberly said.
She cradled Kristine Joy in her arms until the child died.
I told her to fight, but all she could say was mama, mama, Kimberly said.
Supt. Serafin Petalio, Bian police chief, said the attack that also left
Fernandez dead was related to the drug trade. He said Fernandez had
surrendered under the Duterte administrations Oplan Tokhang but went
on selling drugs.
Kristine Joys death being an accidental episode in Mr. Dutertes war on
drugs is most difficult for the childs father, Rodelito, 47, to accept.
Rodelito said he didnt even know the target of the supposed drug
operation, Allan Fernandez, that took his daughters life.
Rodelito said he knew Fernandez lived nearby, but we dont actually know

him.
I would rather lose her to an illness, but this? said Rodelito. Its really
hard to accept, he said.
Kimberly said Kristine Joy had written her dreams on a notebook. Spending
this Christmas with her family could be one of those.
Rodelito said Kristine Joy would be buried on Dec. 29 to allow the family to
SECTIONS Saturday, December 24, 2016
be with the slain child on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

TODAY'S PAPER

We want to celebrate Christmas together as a family before we finally let

her go, said Rodelito.
