65-year-old spinster found dead in house in Makati
MANILA, Philippines - A 65- year old woman was found dead inside her house in Barangay Cembo in Makati City on Tuesday night.
Chief Inspector Eycon Garduque of the Makati Police Criminal Investigation Division (CID) said Lydia Blasa was found lying face up on the ground floor of her house at 370 Mangga St, when her house was forced open by police officers and barangay watchmen at about 8:30 p.m.
"Her neighbors got worried when she did not go out of her house the whole day. They decided to call the barangay and the police," said Garduque.
Garduque said Blasa was single, was a retired employee of the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) and has no relatives staying with her in the house. Garduque added that Blasa was also alone inside the house when she was found.
Initial invesigation ruled out foul play in Blasa's death.
"All of her valuables were intact. There were also no signs to show that robbers had entered the house," said Garduque.
Garduque said that found beside Blasa were medications for hypertension and diabetes.
Blasa's body was taken to Funeraria Veronica where an autopsy was performed. Results of the autopsy have yet to be sent to the Makati Police, Garduque said.
