Subic cops nab Aussie accused of killing live-in partner
SUBIC, Zambales — Police here have arrested an Australian national who allegedly killed his live-in partner inside their home.

Flanagan’s involvement in killing Mañoso surfaced after the autopsy result revealed that Mañoso was already dead prior to the hanging.
