COTABATO CITY—Rep. Horacio Suansing Jr. of Sultan Kudarat’s second congressional district is offering a reward of P100,000 for vital information that could lead to the arrest of the killers of two village chiefs in the coastal town of Lebak.
Suansing said that individuals with information can contact the Lebak Municipal police station at mobile number 0995-885-5413. He emphasized that the information should include the suspects’ names, location, and physical descriptions.
The reward money aims to expedite the resolution of the separate murders of Barangay Basak chair Rogelio S. Talagtag Jr. on January 26 and Barangay Salaman chair Danny A. Angkay, who was ambushed along the national highway in Ampatuan, Maguindanao del Sur on April 18.
In a statement, Suansing expressed his appreciation for the efforts of the Lebak Municipal Police Station and the Sultan Kudarat Provincial Police Office in pursuing the individuals responsible for these two tragic incidents.
He acknowledged the honorable service of the village chiefs, who dedicated themselves to their communities with honesty, integrity, and principle.
Suansing said he was hoping that offering this reward to the public would assist the police in combating the prevailing culture of impunity, enabling criminals to live freely without fear of the consequences of their actions.
“No one is above the law,” he said.
