Commission on Human Rights in Quezon City (File photo by NIÑO JESUS ORBETA / Philippine Daily Inquirer) MANILA, Philippines — The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) has started investigating a suspected hazing case in Quezon City, where a 17-year-old student was severely beaten up by his former fraternity brothers last month for joining another group. In a statement on Saturday, the CHR condemned the incident and said it had directed its investigators in Metro Manila to look into the case. Police said the minor, who is recuperating from serious injuries at an undisclosed hospital, joined the Scout Royale Brotherhood (SRB), a group formed by former members of Alpha Phi Omega fraternity who are based mostly in San Sebastian College, and quit after a year to transfer to another group called Magic 5.
