Ex-Navy officer in slay ex-gf, 2 others surrenders to Tulfo
THE suspect for killing three individuals in Taguig City last month voluntarily surrendered to Senator Raffy Tulfo with the arresting authorities via his program “Wanted sa Radyo” on September 1.
Tulfo assured the suspect, a former Philippine Navy officer, that he would not be manhandled by the authorities while he faced the consequences of his crime.
“Nandito ang ating PNP [Philippine National Police] para sunduin ka at ang kanilang binigay na assurance sa amin ay walang mangyayaring masama sa iyo. Kailangan mo lang harapin ang batas,” he said.
The suspect recently made headlines for allegedly killing his ex-girlfriend and the mother of his child, as well as her two companions.
The suspect confessed to the crime, saying that he killed her ex-GF “out of anger”, which was triggered by their issues in the past – a reason Tulfo found to be unacceptable.
“Ano pa man po ang kasalanan niya sa iyo, wala kang sapat na dahilan na maibibigay to justify the killings,” the senator stressed.
Meanwhile, Tulfo assured the families of the victims, who joined the program through teleconferencing, that he will continue to monitor the case’s progress against the ex-navy official to ensure justice.
“Makakaasa po kayo na tututukan namin ang kasong ito para siguradong gugulong ang hustisya at magiging maayos ang takbo ng kaso sa korte. I assure you that justice will be served,” said the senator from Isabela.
To help with burial fees and other necessary expenses, Tulfo pledged to give P500,000 each to the families of the three victims.
The Taguig cops, who arrested the suspect, confirmed that the latter has four outstanding warrants of arrest for robbery and three counts of carnapping.
