Rebel returnee slain in Tarlac

CAMP OLIVAS — A rebel returnee was killed by his former comrades in Barangay Labney, Mayantoc, Tarlac last Tuesday.

In a report here, Senior Superintendent Alfred Corpus, Tarlac police provincial director, identified the victim as Romeo Luzano, 50, a resident of said barangay.

The victim was talking to his wife and son inside their house when eight unidentified armed men, believed to be rebels, forcibly entered, Corpus said.

The suspects urged the victim to go with them but the latter refused, he said.

The armed men, speaking in Ilocano, took the victim outside the house and moments later five gunshots were heard.

Corpus said the victim was found lying on the ground with gunshot wounds in different parts of his body.

The victim died on the spot due to multiple gunshot wounds, he said.

Police recovered five spent shells for M-16 rifle at the crime scene. (Ric Sapnu)
