Tetangco case: 18 invited for questioning

CAMP OLIVAS, Pampanga – Police have invited yesterday 18 personalities and gave their statements regarding the murder of the brother of Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Governor Amando Tetangco Jr. and two others. 

Senior Superintendent Wendy Rosario, deputy regional director for operations and head of task force YTG, said yesterday there are two persons more scheduled to be invited. 

However, Rosario did not disclose the names of the two others. 

Rosario said all the personalities they have invited and to be invited are friends of Yap whom he talked with before he and two others were found dead. 

On June 2, Yap, Rene Tetangco, brother of the BSP governor and Dennis Guinto were found dead inside a Ford Expedition (YAP-225) parked abandoned in a vacant lot along Friendship Avenue in Barangay Pampang, Angeles City. 

Rosario said that since cash reward has been offered to any informant who could lead to the solution of the case, the task force has been receiving calls and text messages. 

He said the task force has been validating all the calls and texts that they received since the reward was offered. 

The callers or texters could be the suspects in the killing to mislead police authorities in their investigation, Rosario said. 

“Up to now we are still pursuing the investigation regarding the motive of the killings,” Rosario said. 

He said the motive behind the killings could be gambling debt or business rivalry. 

Rosario said the task force has been exerting it’s effort to resolve as soon as possible the YTG case.

The BSP governor in an interview recently, said he hopes the police authorities could solve the case of his brother together with two others.
