Man who earned from ‘jumpers’ slain in Malabon
A MAN known for making illegal power connections in his neighborhood was shot dead in Malabon City on Sunday.
The widow of Danilo Zinampan, 42, admitted that her husband had been engaged in fixing “jumpers” for a fee, earning up to P800 a week from this racket.
Myra said there was a strong possibility that Zinampan was killed because he turned down someone’s “request” for a jumper.
