Mayor Antonio Prospero Esquivel claimed some influential people are trying to revive the murder case which he said had been dismissed in April 1998.


"That’s politics. They are trying to (blacken) my name," he said, adding that the allegations that he was the brains of the murder of Ricardo Velarde are pure fabrications and outright lies.
