Police are eyeing personal grudge as a motive behind the murder of a Syrian Islamic missionary in Carmen, North Cotabato on Friday afternoon.
“A personal grudge involving the victim and the suspects are among the possible motives the police are looking into,” said Police Lt. Col. Bernard Tayong, speaking for the North Cotabato provincial police.
Sheik Washif was inside a house in Barangay Nasapian with his wife Tayaan Ambag, a Maguindanaon, when unidentified gunmen barged in and opened fire.
Washif, a preacher in a Madrasah (religious school) in Barangay Manarapan, Carmen, died on the spot while his wife was injured.
Responding members of the Carmen police rushed the injured wife to a hospital in Kabacan, North Cotabato.
Police said they are waiting for the wife’s statement to help speed up the investigation and file appropriate charges against the suspects.
