The National Press Club of the Philippines (NPC) and the Alyansa ng Filipinong Mamamahayag (Afima) have raised a P50,000 reward money for any information that would lead to the capture of the gunman and the mastermind behind the killing of female radio anchor Marlina Flores Sumera on Thursday.

NPC President Jerry Yap and Afima President Benny Antiporda said the killing of Sumera, the second journalist to be killed this year and the fourth since President Benigno Aquino III came into power.

Yap said the President should make a firmer and bolder stance against journalist killings and that the creation of a so-called “superbody” against media killings be set in motion immediately. He said he has directed committee on press freedom chairman and NPC Director Joel Egco to arrange the release of the reward money from the freedom fund and to drum up support for the proposed inter-agency body.

 “Everybody, including the president, should not be complacent about the lull in killings. The masterminds of these dastardly are still out there and their minions are just about ready to pounce on their next victim. It is high time that we work for the establishment of this superbody which they have already approved in principle last year,” the NPC president said.

For his part, Antiporda, a former president of NPC himself, said that regardless of the motive, the fact that a member of the media was again killed in cold blood is alarming as this could spawn another round of killings. He said the government must immediately act to abate such.

 “In our sheer desire to have the killer and the mastermind behind the killing of Sumera  punished, in our own little way we have contributed and raised this bounty. We call on anyone who has any information on the matter to come forward. Besides this reward, we can promise you protection,” Antiporda stressed.

He was referring to newsreports indicating that the killing could be due to a land dispute involving the victim over a parcel of land in Bgy. Maysilo in Malabon City where she resided.

Sumera, it was gathered, had been tackling in her radio program over DzME a land dispute in her own neighborhood where she was also the homeowners’ association president.

The 44-year-old victim was married and a mother-of-three. She hosted a public service program at her station and was on her way to work when killed.

Kurap Customs, imbestigahan

GUSTO ng isang licensed custom broker  na maimbestigahan ang sinasabing tatlong itlog na taga-Bureau of Customs dyan sa Mindanao Container Terminal  sa Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental, dahil nagkamal ang mga ito ng limpak-limpak na salapi, mga ari-arian at mamahaling sasakyan.

Sabi nga, nakuha sa pandudugas!

Sangkot ang mga custong este mali customs pala sa illegal importation dahil sa misdeclared at misclassification para makaiwas ang mga ito sa pagbabayad ng tamang buwis.

Sinabi ng mga asset ng mga kuwago gng ORA MISMO, ang modus operandi ng mga kamote ay ang misdeclaration tulad ng pagde-deklarang “replacement parts” pero  ang laman ng container van ay dalawa o tatlong SUV vehicles with complete accessories.

May mga baril pa daw inihahalo ang mga importer ng mga kamoteng taga-customs.

Abangan.
