A police sketch of the gunman who shot dead Baler, Aurora Judge Erwin Alaba
A police task force investigating the September 1 murder of Baler, Aurora Judge Erwin Alaba has ruled out the possible involvement of communist rebels in the crime.
Chief Superintendent Rudy Lacadin, acting Central Luzon police director, said Special Investigating Task Group Alaba is more inclined to believe the judge was killed by hired assassins.
Alaba was shot dead at the parking lot of the Hall of Justice in Baler. His wife was also wounded in the incident.
Lacadin said the possible involvement of the New People’s Army was initially eyed because the judge had tried the case against Delfin Pimentel, an alleged rebel operating in Nueva Ecija and Aurora. However, this was ruled out after the probers learned the case against Pimentel was eventually dropped.
Chief Inspector Rolando Culiao, head of SITG Alaba, also said they have witnesses who heard members of a gang allegedly led by “Toto Galang” discussing the plot to kill the judge.
The investigating team earlier released a sketch of the gunman.
