Senior Police Officer 1 Niel Ajos, duty officer at the Nunucan police station, identified the victim as Fernando “Nanding” Solijon, an anchorman of the Public Affairs program “Sandiganan” of the FM radio station Love Radio.
Initial police investigation disclosed that Solijon had been invited by a close friend to Buru-un for dinner and beer. On his way to his car after dinner, two unidentified on a motorcycle shot him at close range several times, Ajos told the Philippine Daily Inquirer in a telephone interview.
“Solijon sustained several gunshot wounds in the forehead, abdomen and shoulder,” Ajos said.
Solijon was taken to a hospital in Iligan City but was declared dead on arrival.
An investigation was still being conducted, Ajos said.
