MANILA, Philippines — Senator Raffy Tulfo is offering a P1-million reward to anyone who could provide information leading to the arrest of a suspect who killed a 21-year-old man and raped a minor in Marinduque.
Tulfo decried on Monday the crime committed by the suspect on the couple who went camping in Boac town in Marinduque last week.
“Mariin kong kinokondena ang karumal-dumal na pagpatay sa isang 21-anyos na lalaki at walang habas na pag-gahasa naman sa kanyang menor de edad na nobya ng isang hindi pa nakikilalang suspek. Walang konsensya ang gumawa ng ganitong karumal-dumal at kalunos-lunos na krimen,” Tulfo said in a statement.
(I strongly condemn the immoral murder of a 21-year-old man and rape of his minor girlfriend by an unidentified suspect. The person who committed this disgusting and tragic crime has no conscience.)
“Kaya ako po ay magbibigay ng 1 milyong pabuya, totoo po ito, sa ikadarakip ng suspek, basta’t sigurado ako na talagang ang may sala ang madarakip at mapananagot,” he added.
(That is why I will give a P1-million reward, this is real for the suspect to be arrested, as long as it is certain that the person responsible will be caught and held accountable.)
Tulfo called on the public to contact his office if they had any information that could help lead to the suspect’s apprehension.
