Duterte’s sister: I have no ‘dance instructor-lover’

DAVAO CITY, Philippines—President Rodrigo Duterte’s youngest sibling, Jocelyn, denied a dance instructor of hers was abducted and killed, contrary to confessed triggerman Edgar Matobato’s claim.

Ms. Duterte said in a radio interview on Thursday that she did not have a dance instructor-boyfriend who, Matobato said, was abducted on Jacinto St. here and was killed at the Ma-a quarry in 2013 on orders of President Duterte.

Ms. Duterte said she was demanding an apology and that she was mulling the filing of cases in relation to Matobato’s claim. RAM/rga
