The provincial police command in Bukidnon is now conducting
a probe about alleged vigilante killings in the province, a report reaching
here said Friday.
Insp. Jiselle Longakit, the spokesperson of the Bukidnon
police provincial office, said that the police recovered the bodies of Walter
Saliguyan and Norman Saliguyan dumped in the cornfield of Cabanglasan,
Bukidnon.
It was not known whether the two victims are related to each
other since Walter was found in Kumaliwat while the body of Norman
was found in Bagong Silang, both in the village of Paradise
Longakit said that Norman Saliguyan has a pending warrant of
arrest for the crime of robbery.
She said that both victims sustained multiple hacked wounds,
stabbed wounds, and gunshot wounds on their bodies.
“The victims might have been killed Wednesday evening and
dumped in a vacant cornfield,” she said.
She said that the police are still investigating the motive
of the killings, although a note in the victims’ bodies was found saying:
“Gepapahulay ni tongod kay grabe nang sala nga nabuhat nahasol na ang mga tawo
tongod sa kawat bisan onsa sama sa manok maes mariwana kawat sa kabaw sogod
karon wanay maghimo parehas ani panahon na nga mag bag-o”. (They’ve been put to
rest because of their offenses like robbery, rustling and warned other
criminals to reform or meet the same fate.)
Longakit said that the provincial police command is looking
into allegations about the existence of a “vigilante” group that kills and goes
after suspected criminals.
“The police is looking into the allegation, although there
is no proof that a vigilante group exists in the province of Bukidnon
