Suspect in Loreto mayor's slay identified

From ABS-CBN (Oct 22): Suspect in Loreto mayor's slay identified

Authorities have identified one of the suspects in the abduction and murder of Loreto, Agusan del Sur Mayor Dario Otaza and his son.

Members of the special investigation task group identified one of the suspects as Rene Tindugan, suspected to be a member of the communist New People's Army (NPA).

He was identified as the thin man suffering from an ailment in the left eye, as was shown in the facial composite released on Wednesday.



Police said Tindugan is the son of alias Kumander Boy Tindugan of the Guerrilla Front Committee 34, which operates in Agusan del Sur.

Authorities have also identified nine others who are tagged in the abduction and murder of the victims. They, however, refused to identify the suspects until appropriate charges have been filed against them.

Otaza and his son were abducted Monday by 18 unidentified armed men from their home in Barangay Riverside in Butuan City.

The Otazas were found shot dead in a coconut plantation in Purok Dos, Barangay Bitan-agan Tuesday morning.
