THE decomposing body of a 25-year-old habal-habal driver was found in a ravine in barangay Binaliw, Danao City, northern Cebu.
Police identified the fatality as Marjun Canedo of barangay Tabok, Danao.
Two children picking fruits in the area found the body in a 20-feet deep ravine around 4 p.m. Friday.
The victim might have been strangled because of a ligature mark in his neck, Insp. Romeo Caacoy, deputy police chief of Danao city, said.
Cacoy said at least two persons were involved in the attack.
The victim’s motorcycle was missing but police discounted the possibility that robbery was the motive in the killing since his wallet containing cash remained intact.
Personal grudges could be the motive in the killing, police said.
It was possible that the man was killed Thursday night.
Police said that according to Canedo’s family, the victim was a good man and didn’t have criminal records./Correspondent Joy Cherry S. Quito
