The Singaporean national who was shot dead at his Parañaque City shop on Wednesday had received death threats prior to the attack, his Filipino widow told the police.
Senior Supt. Ariel Andrade, the city’s chief of police, said Rovelyn, wife of the slain Stanlex Jang, suspected that the source of the threats was a business associate of the victim.
Jang was the owner—not just the manager, as earlier reported—of Deltatronix Enterprises, a distributor of instrumentation or testing gadgets, based in Barangay Don Bosco.
Around noon Wednesday, two men rang the doorbell of the shop on the second floor of EOK Building on Doña Soledad Avenue.
When an employee opened the door, one of them asked if there was a photocopying machine inside.
When the employee said no and was about to close the door, one of the men gave it a push and drew a gun, said Chief Insp. Arnold Dugas, the chief investigator.
The intruders ordered the other employees to drop to the floor and asked, “Where is your boss?” They found their target in a cubicle and shot him the face, before walking casually out of the establishment.
