MANILA – The alleged middleman in the killing of broadcaster Percival “Percy Lapid” Mabasa died inside the New Bilibid Prison (NBP), Department of Justice (DOJ) Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla said on Thursday, October 20.
In an interview with reporters, Remulla said the 42-year-old person deprived of liberty (PDL) died at 3 pm on Tuesday, October 18, inside a prison hospital. The autopsy on the body is ongoing, according to Remulla.
“Nakita naming totoo nga, namatay, may namatay na tao (We’ve seen it, and it’s true that someone died, a person died), so, immediately, it’s the NBI (National Bureau of Investigation) and that autopsy that’s very important,” the DOJ chief told reporters.
Remulla said the PDL was rushed to the hospital because he was having difficulty breathing.
