NBI ready with findings of forensics probe on hostage crisis

MANILA, Philippines?The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) has completed a report on the results of its forensic investigation and analysis into the bloody August 23 hostage fiasco.

The NBI report is to be submitted and presented during the continuation of the fact-finding hearing on the botched police rescue and assault on Wednesday.

NBI Director Magtanggol Gatdula said his office has prepared its chemistry, ballistics and medico-legal reports for submission and presentation to the five-member investigating panel headed by Justice Secretary Leila de Lima.

Gatdula, however, said the bureau?s medico-legal team just interpreted the autopsy conducted by the Philippine National Police Crime Laboratory on some of the slain Chinese hostages.

?We were only ordered to investigate the incident after the police had done the autopsy on the victims,? Gatdula told the Philippine Daily Inquirer before the start of the last day of the marathon hearings.

Also appearing at the proceeding, as of 11:30 a.m., were broadcast journalists Erwin Tulfo of TV5 and dzXL, and Susan Enriquez of GMA7 and dzBB, who both spoke with hostage-taker Rolando Mendoza moments before he went on a shooting rampage inside the bus.
