Investigators are looking into business and money issues as the possible motives in the killing of a businessman and the wounding of his wife at a gasoline station in Pasig City on Monday morning.
The victims, Ronaldo Sison, 42, and his wife, Elenita, were engaged in merchandise, buying and selling of various products, and even in an informal money lending business, Senior Police Officer 3 Rogelio Villanueva, Pasig police investigator, said in a phone interview Tuesday.
A few moments before motorcycle-riding men attacked and shot them successively around 7 a.m. on Monday, they met a woman who took from them some dairy products.
The woman, identified as Ranylene Guzman, 27, a resident of Cainta, Rizal, left a few minutes before the attack.
Asked if she was considered a suspect, Villanueva said “we don’t have sufficient evidence to link her to the killing.”
But he said the woman had a standing P3-million debt to the couple, which she had been trying to pay by installment.
The woman told the police she had no involvement in the shooting and that the fact that the shooting took place right after her meeting with the Sison couple was merely a coincidence.
