The A police officer assigned to the Bacolod City Police Office voluntarily surrendered after admitting to killing a single mom who was reported missing in Bago City, Negros Occidental.
According to a police report, an abandoned vehicle with traces of blood was found on October 29 in Sitio So-ol, Barangay Gargato, Hinigaran. The vehicle was later confirmed to belong to a 42-year-old woman who was reported missing.
On November 1, the main suspect, a police staff sergeant, surrendered and admitted his involvement in the victim's disappearance. In his statement, he said that they had an argument inside the car and out of jealousy, he "accidentally" shot the woman, who was allegedly his girlfriend.
Matapos ang pag-amin, nagsagawa ng operasyon ang mga imbestigador at Scene of the Crime Operatives (SOCO) sa Hinigaran. Sa tulong ng suspek, natagpuan nila sa isang liblib na lugar ang bangkay ng biktima na doon umano itinago.
Kinasuhan na ng murder ang naturang pulis. Tiniyak ng pamunuan ng PNP na magiging patas at bukas sa publiko ang imbestigasyon. Nagpahayag din sila ng pakikiramay sa pamilya ng biktima at tiniyak na makakamit ang hustisya.
