Motorcycle riding suspects struck again, this time killing a retired policeman, who was also considered by the police as a person of interest in the killing of Police Executive Master Sgt. Roldan Esmajer, on Saturday in Brgy. Ajong, Sibulan, Negros Oriental.
Col. Julian Entoma, officer-in-charge of the Negros Oriental Police Provincial Office, confirmed yesterday that the victim, identified as Rodrigo Soldivillo, was a retired policeman. He succumbed to multiple gunshot wounds, and was declared dead on arrival at the Silliman University Medical Center in Dumaguete City, the police said.
The police said the victim and two witnesses were sitting on a bench, in front of a sari-sari store, when the five suspects on board three motorcycles arrived. The gunman, armed with a .45 caliber pistol, disembarked from his motorcycle, and fired at the victim, while the four other suspects watched.
Recovered from the crime scene were eight empty shells and three deformed slugs of a .45 caliber pistol.
While Soldivillo was still in active service, Entoma said that he was a cockpit aficionado, who had many enemies, allegedly because of “dishonesty,” involving fighting cocks.He had also been charged for the murder of a fellow policeman, but the case did not prosper, Entoma said.
After the murder case was dismissed, Soldivillo retired from the police service, Entoma said.
Soldevillo used to be assigned at the San Jose Police Station in Negros Oriental, where its deputy police chief, Police Executive Master Sgt. Roldan Esmajer, 47, was also gunned down by two motorcycle-riding suspects a week ago.
Entoma said he is looking into personal grudges as having triggered the killing of Soldivillo.
He confirmed that Soldivillo was also supposed to be the subject of a search warrant, in connection with the death of Esmajer, as he was a person of interest in their investigation.*
