MANILA — The National Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Justice on Monday confirmed the death of missing former Court of Appeals Justice Normandie Pizarro.
Justice Undersecretary Adrian Sugay said the confirmation was “based on DNA test results” on a “then-unidentified body” found in Brgy. Cristo Rey, Capas, Tarlac on October 30, a week after the retired justice went missing.
Pizarro was last seen on a CCTV footage on October 23, getting inside a black Honda Accord car in a hotel and casino in Clark, Pampanga — later identified as the Midori Hotel and Casino. In photos provided by the police to ABS-CBN News in October, the abandoned car did not have any plate number.
