12-year-old girl found with throat slit


A 12-year-old girl was found lifeless with her throat slit by a still unidentified suspect in Caloocan City on Wednesday.

According to a report by Katrina Son in GMA's Saksi, the victim went home early from school at noon because it was her exams week.

When their household helper arrived by 3 p.m., she saw the victim, identified as Myrrhaquel Singson, lying on the ground.

The father of the girl, Colenso Singson, said he was at work when the police called him about the incident.

Based on the investigation, two cellphones were missing but there was no sign of forced entry in the house, which is considered a hint that the suspect is someone who has close ties with the family.

The victim's father said that only his brother-in-law has a duplicate key of their house.

He added that the said relative even took a bath in their residence at noon on the same day of the crime.

An investigation is ongoing. — Dona Magsino/BAP, GMA News
