PNP says case of body found in Cavite already resolved

Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Police General Nicolas Torre III on Monday clarified that the case of the Chinese victim who was found in Cavite has already been resolved.

According to Torre, the incident took place in 2022. The victim is a 32-year-old Chinese fugitive who was issued a red notice by the International Criminal Police Organization.

He said that the victim is now buried at a public cemetery after his family refused to cooperate with authorities.

Torre, meanwhile, slammed critics of the government for digging up the issue.  

“Hinuhukay, literal na hinukay sa baul para palabasin lang na para bang bago kasi wala na silang nakitang masama ngayon na kasing sama nu'ng panahon nila,” he said in a briefing.
