MANILA, Philippines — Navotas Mayor Toby Tiangco called on police officers to arrest the suspect behind the killing of one of its city traffic enforcers whose severed head was discovered in Manila last Oct. 1, Thursday.

In a report from Manila Police District, the decapitated head of Oliver Ignacio, who was also a navy reservist,  was found along Florentino Torres Street near Soler Street in Sta. Cruz, Manila at 11:50 p.m.

“I condemn in the strongest possible terms the murder of Oliver Ignacio, one of the City’s traffic enforcers. I urge our law enforcement officers to capture the perpetrators soon. This senseless disregard for human life should be meted out with the punishment it deserves,” Tiangco said in a Facebook post on Saturday.
