The women’s group Gabriela has called on authorities to thoroughly investigate the killing of businesswoman Yvonne Plaza-Chua as it flagged social media reports alleging that an Army general may have been allegedly involved in the murder case.
Gabriela feared that Chua’s case could be whitewashed following social media claims that a star-ranked officer and a commander of an Army brigade may be allegedly involved in the killing.
The military official is reportedly a former chief of the Presidential Security Group during the term of former President Rodrigo R. Duterte.Kailangan ang mabusisi at patas na imbestigasyon sa kaso lalo na’t isang mataas na opisyal ng gobyerno ang nasasangkot,”Chua, 38, was shot dead in front of her rented house at the Green Meadows Subdivision in Barangay Tugbok, Davao City last week by one of two suspects on board a motorcycle.
While the Davao City Police said that it was looking into two possible motives, Gabriela noted that no less than Chua herself shared in social media post photos of her injuries inflicted by the military official, whom she claimed had also allegedly threatened her.
Aside from calling for a thorough and impartial investigation, Palce urged authorities to give protection to the family of Chua as evidence “pointing to the suspect” is being presented.
