NBI tags two sons in
Tan killings, too
BY NESTOR BURGOS JR.

ILOILO CITY-The National Bureau of Investigation has upheld the results of a police investigation that tagged the sons of an Iloilo businessman as suspects in the killing of their father, stepmother and half-sister.

In a ten-page report dated March 16 and submitted to Justice Secretary Raul Gonzalez Sr., the NBI Western Visayas Regional Office said there is "no convincing and substantial evidence" that would alter the findings of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group against Archie and Jan Michael Tan.

The CIDG had earlier filed two counts of murder and a count of parricide against the brothers for the January 8 killing of their father Francisco "Bobby" Tan, stepmother Cynthia Zayco-Tan and their six-year-old half-sister Katherine.moremoremore

BY GILBERT BAYORAN

Policemen and court sheriffs about to serve a writ of execution to 60 families squatting on property owned by a lawyer, were fired upon by unidentified armed persons in Sitio Huebesan, Brgy. Villacin, Cadiz City, yesterday.

Fortunately, nobody was injured among the three Sagay and Cadiz City policemen and court sheriffs Balbino Germinal and William Añonuevo who were on board a cargo truck, the police said.

Negros Occidental police director Charles Calima yesterday said the two court sheriffs, escorted by PO3 Jessie Morin, PO3 Raul Burton, of the Cadiz police, and PO1 Miranda, were on their way to serve the writ of squatters on the property of lawyer Marcelo Briones in the boundary of Brgy. Villacin in Cadiz, and Brgy. Puey, Sagay City. moremoremore
