TAGBILARAN CITY, Philippines — A still unidentified woman was found with head wounds and half-naked in this city Saturday morning.
The woman was alive and was rushed to a hospital.
A group of women, who just came from a dawn Rosary prayer, found the woman’s body past 5 a.m. at barangay (village) Poblacion 3
Residents surmised she was raped because she had nothing on in her private parts.
A pair of shorts, briefs and slippers were also found near where the woman was found. Dried leaves hid them.
Witnesses said they saw wounds on the woman’s head.
Blood-stained stones were also found in the area where no one knew who the woman was.
Police are now investigating. (Editor: Tony Bergonia)
