An Army intelligence operative was found dead yesterday at the BREDCO Port in Brgy. 12, Bacolod City.

He was identified by the police as Jimmy Peña of Capiz province.

P/Col. Joseph Thomas Martir, officer-in-charge of the Bacolod City Police Office, yesterday said that there was no indication that he was robbed, since his valuables as well as personal belongings, including his service firearm, a Glock 9mm pistol, are still in his car.

Martir also said that police probers did not notice any injury on the body of the Army soldier. But he added that they will conduct an autopsy to determine the cause of his death.

The cadaver was already in a state of decomposition, when the police opened the vehicle yesterday.

Witnesses said that vehicle parked near the BREDCO Port Gate 1 in Bacolod City, since Monday.

Police raised the possibility that Peña may have already been dead for 24 hours.

Peña is assigned at an Army advance command post at Camp Alfredo Montelibano Sr. in Bacolod City.
