A housewife was killed by suspected New People’s Army
members in the presence of her husband and three companions at Barangay
Valparaiso, San Fernando , Masbate
allegedly for refusing to be their community organizer.
Victim Meriam J. Capsa was with her husband Ariesto and
three other aboard a passenger motorcycle going to Barangay Poblacion, San
Jacinto, Masbate when upon reaching Barangay Valparaiso, San Fernando, they
heard multiple gunshots from unidentified persons clad in military uniform and
armed with long firearms, prompting them to stop.
More or less five persons approached Ariesto, forcibly
grabbed him from the motorcycle, tied his hands and instructed him to lie
facing the ground.
Afterwards, he heard five gun shots and the unidentified
suspects immediately fled towards the mountainous part of the village.
Moments later, responding village volunteer security men
arrived and discovered the lifeless body of Meriam.
Ariesto said that since 2013, NPA rebels operating in Ticao Island
had been dropping by their house and convincing his wife to be one of their
community organizers.
The San Fernando MPS is still conducting an in-depth
investigation for the possible identification and apprehension of the suspects.
