PARAÑAQUE City police said it has taken custody of all but two suspects in the murder of actor Ramgen Revilla. | |||
Chief of police Senior Supt. Billy Beltran said only Ryan Pastera and Revilla’s sister, Ramona Bautista, have yet to be accounted after the Parañaque regional trial court issued on Tuesday arrest warrants against them. | |||
“We are | “We are conducting manhunt operations and we’re hoping we could get to them soonest,” Beltran said. | ||
Seven suspects have been formally charged with murder and frustrated murder for the killing of Revilla, half-brother of Sen. Ramon Revilla Jr., at the family residence in BF Resort Village last October. | |||
The victim’s girlfriend, Janelle Manahan, survived the attack and is now a prosecution witness. | |||
Beltran said a police team went to Pastera’s house in Las Piñas but he was no longer there. | |||
Chief Insp. Ferjen Torres, intelligence unit chief of the Parañaque police, said Pastera was last seen leaving his house last Thursday aboard a vehicle owned by Genelyn Magsaysay, Revilla’s mother. | |||
He said they will be talking to Magsaysay to confirm the information. | |||
Pastera, 19, is a Hotel and Restaurant Management student and reportedly a friend of Hiro Furuyama, husband of another Revilla sibling, Gail, who was also implicated in the case. | |||
Pastera was supposed to be the “middleman” asked to contract alleged hired killers Francis Tolisora and Michael Nartea to kill Revilla. | |||
Torres said they will give Pastera one week to surrender or he will be added in the city police’s list of 10 most wanted criminals. | |||
Pastera surrendered to the Office of the City Prosecutor last December to file his counter-affidavit and because he has yet to be formally charged, he was allowed to remain in the custody of the National Bureau of Investigation. | |||
Manahan’s legal counsel, Argee Guevarra, said the court should press the NBI to divulge the whereabouts of the suspect. | |||
“They were the ones who escorted Mr. Pastera and naturally they should explain to the court why the suspect can no longer be found,” Guevarra said. | |||
Ramona, on the other hand, had gone abroad a few days after the killing. | |||
Prosecutors said they would ask the assistance of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group of the national police and the International Criminal Police Organization in locating Ramona abroad, who first fled to Turkey before formal charges were filed against her. | |||
Guevarra said they will also work for the cancellation of Ramona’s passport now that an arrest warrant has been issued against her. | |||
