Gail Bautista Furuyama and her husband, Hiro, underwent a preliminary investigation at the Paranaque Regional Trial Court Tuesday after being accused of masterminding the killing of Gail's brother, Ramgen Revilla.


In her counter-affidavit on the statement of primary witness Janelle Manahan, Bautista-Furuyama insisted that the killing was meant for Janelle, and that Ramgen was killed when he tried to intervene.
After a long Christmas break, the 3,726 students at the F. Serrano Elementary School in Parañaque City will have to hold their classes at a parish church.


"This is a frustrated murder of Janelle Manahan that gave occasion to the killing of my beloved brother, Ramgen, by the same masked gunman using the same weapon," she said in her counter-affidavit.
They have no classrooms to return to. Last December 10, a small plane crashed near the school igniting a fire that gutted the building.


"The killer shot her first although my Kuya Ramgen was already in the line of fire of the killer. My Kuya Ramgen came to her aid where he was shot in the process. Very clearly this is not a premeditated murder of my Kuya Ramgen, as the target of the killer was Janelle. These are facts based on the evidence in the records and my sister Ramona happens to be there at the wrong time but it did not make her a part of the crime."
The crash and fire killed 14 people, including a pupil of the school.
She also said it is unbelievable for Janelle to overhear the conversation between her and sister Ramona after being shot in the head.


"The impact of the bullet on her head is traumatic and her consciousness is definitely affected. She even allegedly heard my voice from the other end of a cellphone in that condition, and this is simply preposterous and merely a concocted statement," she said.
Temporary classrooms for Kinder to Grade VI have been set up at covered gym of the Mary Help of Christian National Shrine in Don Bosco, Better Living Subdivision. The school principal, Rosalia Morit, said the students may have to hold classes at the gym until August, when a new school is built.
Atty. Luke Espiritu, Manahan's lawyer, said the counter affidavit was full of mere denials. He said: "May positive identification kay Gail (Bautista-Furuyama) in terms of planning. May mga witness na sya ang tinuturo kaya sya hinabla."


Manahan will be submitting her reply to the counter-affidavit on January 10. Her lawyers will also submit their reply to the motion filed today by the Bautista-Furuyama lawyers to dismiss the case with alternative prayer to inhibit Assistant City Prosecutor Leah Roma.
Morit said classes were divided into two shifts: from 6 a.m. to 12 noon and 12 noon to 6 p.m.
The Bautista-Furuyama couple is the third batch of suspects on the controversial Ramgen Revilla Killing.


The first set of suspects, Ramon Joseph Bautista, Francis Tolisora and Michael Nartea, is scheduled to be arraigned on January 17, while the second set of suspects, Ramona Bautista, Glaiza Visda, and Norwyn Dela Cruz, are already set for resolution at the Paranaque City prosecutors office anytime from today.
Some classes are held at a covered area of the churchyard where village residents hold a “tiange” bazaar every Sunday. Others are located at the function room located at second floor of the church.
 
Morit said Grade I and II pupils holding classes at the covered court only have blackboards as partitions.
 
“The heat (in the gym) is the number one problem and we fear that some students might get sick because of the poor ventilation where we are holding our classes,” Morit said.
 
She said the three industrial fans in the court are not enough.
 
Morit said they have requested from the Office of the Mayor for additional industrial fans.
 
The city government through Mayor Florencio Bernabe provided chairs and tables as well as school materials for the students, she said.
 
The principal said the national government will be providing P128-million to rebuild the school.
 
She also said four F. Serrano students were among the 11 people injured in the crash.
 
One of the students, Rodelyn Molina, a Grade IV pupil, remained at the Makati Medical Center while the rest were recuperating at home.
 
Morit identified the student who was killed as Kinder student James Bayan, 5.
