Police Regional Office 7 has looked into the possibility that the vocal coach found dead in the City of Naga, Cebu Province on December 30, 2023 could have been slain inside his own vehicle based on forensic examination.

Police Lieutenant Colonel Gerard Ace Pelare, spokesperson of PRO 7, said it is likely that the assailant knows the victim, Joel Jude Suson Unchuan, more popularly referred to as “Coach J" and may have been with him prior to the incident.

Policemen have already tracked down the places where the car had been to prior to the discovery of Unchuan's body that was left on a lot in Barangay Inayagan. 

The car, based on dashcam video and Global Positioning System (GPS) logs, went to Nivel Hills in Barangay Lahug, Cebu City; on to Lapu-Lapu City, then to Barangay Mabolo back in Cebu City; next to Mandaue City, and then to the City of Naga before the car was found in Liloan town on New Year’s Day.

Police earlier looked into the angle of robbery after it was reported that money worth P30,000 which Unchuan kept in a pouch was missing.
