Armed men abduct, execute former village chief in Masbate City

From the Philippine News Agency (Mar 5): Armed men abduct, execute former village chief in Masbate City

Unidentified armed men abducted and killed a former barangay captain (village chief) whose dead body was found by his relatives Wednesday night at Barangay B. Titong, Masbate City.

Police report identified the victim as Salvador Cabug, whose family household members were watching television at about 9 p.m. when the suspects suddenly barged in, dragged him outside the house and brought him to a secluded place of the barangay where they shot him dead.

Cabug's wife, Grace, sought help from authorities after the suspects fled.

They found Cabug's body peppered with gunshots and brought it to a funeral parlor for autopsy.

Police are now looking into the possible motive for the killing.
