MANILA, Philippines - The fugitive widow of slain international car racing champion Ferdinand “Enzo” Pastor has petitioned the Court of Appeals (CA) to stop the enforcement of an arrest warrant, issued by a Quezon City court in February, for parricide.
Dalia Guerrero-Pastor, who has been in hiding, also sought the dismissal of the parricide case filed against her by the Department of Justice (DOJ) last February for the killing of her husband on June 12, 2014.
She filed the petition with the CA through her lawyer Ruy Rondain, but signed it herself in Davao City.
Insisting there is no evidence against her, Guerrero-Pastor said the court gravely abused its discretion in affirming the DOJ’s finding of probable cause in the criminal charge against her based merely on the statements of gunman-turned-witness former policeman Edgar Angel, who claimed she and her alleged lover, businessman Domingo de Guzman, masterminded her husband’s killing.
The DOJ indicted De Guzman for murder.
