A Sangguniang Bayan member in Ibajay, Aklan, is facing murder charges after allegedly shooting the town’s vice mayor on Friday. Ibajay Mayor Jose Miguel Miraflores reported that a Scene of the Crime Operations team recovered nine bullet casings along with the firearm used at the crime scene.
“Malungkot pa rin kami at shocked pa rin ang karamihan sa nangyari noong Biyernes,” Miraflores told Super Radyo dzBB. (We are still sad, and most of us are still shocked after last Friday’s incident.)
According to Miraflores, the suspect, identified by police as Mihrel Senatin, possesses a license to own a firearm.
