FOREIGN Affairs Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano has instructed the Philippine Embassy in Madrid to extend help to a Filipina who was seriously injured in Thursday’s terrorist attack in Barcelona, Spain. Cayetano also directed Chargè d’Affaires Emmanuel Fernandez to help locate the missing 7-year-old son of the 43-year-old Filipina who is married to a British. He ordered Fernandez to proceed immediately to Barcelona to assist the unidentified Filipina who remains in serious condition at a hospital in Barcelona. The Filipina’s husband is on his way to Barcelona to help locate his son who got separated from his mother during the attack. She and her son were in Barcelona to attend the wedding of a cousin from the Philippines when the terror attack took place.
