KALIBO, Aklan – The spate of killings in the town of Numancia, about four kilometers from here, alarmed the Aklan Police Provincial Office under acting police director Supt. William Macavinta.
Two brothers were killed in separate incidents this month in Brgy. Camancia Norte and Sur. They were 46-year-old Arlo Paderes of Brgy. Albasan and his elder half-brother Guy Ureta.
Ureta was killed by unidentified assailants while riding a motorcycle.
Macavinta met barangay leaders, non-government organizations and residents of the two adjacent villages over the weekend and sought their help in the campaign against crimes.
“The presence of more policemen would be a great factor to hinder the commission of crimes. Strangers should be monitored and reported to barangay leaders," he said.Macavinta also tapped the help of tanods.
Paderes’ headless body was found in Brgy. Camanci Norte on September 16 around 6 a.m. He was last seen binge drinking with friends in Brgy. Albasan around 9 p.m. on September 15 and left his friends to attend the vigil of his elder brother in Brgy. Camanci Sur.
Camancia Norte barangay captain Helen Moises believed that Paredes was killed elsewhere, and his body was merely dumped in her barangay to mislead the authorities.
Albasan barangay captain Rolly Cawaling described Paderes as a “happy guy, well-loved by his barrio mates, and with no known enemies or police record.”
“The gruesome murder of Arlo could be related to the killing of his brother,” he added.
