CEBU, Philippines - A 30-year-old man was indicted for attempted parricide after he tried to kill his mother because the latter failed to give him money.
Assistant Cebu City Prosecutor Naruzen Lorete recommended P120,000 bail for the temporary liberty of Randy Cabugason.
Cabugason, resident of Sitio Lawis Barangay Pasil, was charged before the Regional Trial Court with attempted parricide after the prosecutor’s office found probable cause to indict him of the complaint filed by his own mother.
Jasmin Cabugason, 50, said the accused chased her with a kitchen knife on February 8 because she failed to give him money. The victim said she ran outside their house crying for help alerting their neighbors and the barangay tanods.
Barangay tanods Matheo Derecho, William Robles, Rey dela Cerna and Ramil Guioguio responded to her call and arrested the accused. — (FREEMAN)
