[Summary] =>
The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) is looking into two angles as possible motive in the killing of a Customs officer in Lapu-Lapu City in Cebu last Feb. 6.

[Title] => Evidence vs 2 suspects in Customs men’s slays ‘enough’
[Summary] => CEBU CITY — The city prosecutor’s office has stood by its earlier decision to file criminal cases in court against two suspects in the ambush-killing of a Customs deputy collector and an examiner here in July last year.
In his reinvestigation report, prosecutor Victor Laborte said there is enough evidence to establish probable cause to charge Juan Jesus Vergel de Dios and Rustico Fernandez in the Regional Trial Court.
Laborte said the alibis of De Dios and Fernandez are matters which the court will determine and decide in a trial on the merits of the case.

[Title] => Bibit: NBI being used to destroy me
[Summary] => CEBU — Cebu Customs collector Billy Bibit suspects that the seizure by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) of 25 right-hand-drive luxury vehicles valued at P12 million and the allusion to his son as having facilitated their slipping through Customs was a demolition job against him by his enemies, with the NBI acting as a witting or unwitting tool.
Although his son has never been categorically linked to the controversy in any of the media reports about the NBI seizure, Bibit felt his son and namesake has been alluded to, prompting him to publicly cry foul.
