CDO Representative Lordan Suan denied claims that he had called for a shoot-to-kill order against Senator Bato. The denial came in response to social media posts alleging that Suan had made such a statement. Suan emphasized that the claims were false and part of a coordinated disinformation campaign.

The controversy emerged after several online posts attributed remarks to Suan suggesting a lethal response to threats against Senator Bato. Suan clarified that no such directive had been issued and that the posts were fabricated. He called for the public to verify information before sharing it.

This is not the first time Suan has faced misinformation about his stance on security issues. Previous incidents involved false reports about his involvement in local governance. The current situation highlights ongoing challenges in distinguishing credible information from disinformation in political discourse.
