Girl
raped, knifed dead
BY JUANCHO GALLARDE
An eleven-year-old girl from Sibulan, Oriental Negros, succumbed to multiple stab wounds after she was attacked and allegedly raped by an ex-convict a few meters from her house, at about 9:30 p.m. Saturday in Sitio Ata-ata in Barangay San Antonio.
The victim, Mary Jane Calintig, was found by her mother being attacked by the suspect, but it was too late. She had sustained 22 stab wounds on her chest and died on the way to the hospital.
The girl's mother, Luzviminda Calintig Fulmaran, who
works for a burger stand at the Sibulan town proper, said her daughter
usually stayed up until she returns home from work at night.

Guv defends Oriental Negros Governor George Arnaiz said he is confident that the government can eventually regain the trust and confidence of the people once projects are implemented. He said many people are protesting the EVAT, but if they see that the taxes they paid are used for projects, their complaints will eventually die down. Arnaiz also said there is a need to further explain to the people
the necessity of the EVAT implementation, for them to appreciate
its purpose. |
