A CCTV footage captures the murder of barangay chairman Leonilo Arbonido in Tanza Cavite, April 14, Saturday.
Authorities have recorded the first election-related crime in this year’s poll season after a barangay chairman in Tanza, Cavite was shot dead by gunmen riding-in-tandem on April 14, Saturday.
The slain barangay chairman was identified as Leonilo Arbonido, 59, the captain of Barangay Julugan VI.
In a CCTV footage, the victim was seen inside his store when the shooting happened.
The kin, on the other hand, refused to give a statement regarding the incident.
Abonido’s co-workers are saddened by the chairman’s death.
“Maasikaso siya sa amin sa barangay. Kami nga’y nanghihinayang dahil sabi ko nga isang matapat na kaibigan at pinuno namin,” said barangay kagawad Bayani Razon.
(He was kind to us. It’s a pity because he was a true friend and good leader.)
Arbonida has served for 16 years as a counselor and 10 years as the village chief.
Authorities are still looking into possible suspects in the killing. — UNTV News & Rescue
