Authorities have named Bantag as one of the alleged masterminds behind Lapid’s killing, and the BuCor chief now faces murder raps. Department of Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla has urged the BuCor chief to surrender.“From the results of the fact-finding investigation of the DOJ, as Secretary Remulla said, the totality of evidence points to General Bantag as the mastermind.
In a previous interview with DZMM, Lapid’s brother, Roy Mabasa, had said that former president Rodrigo Duterte should be a person of interest in Lapid’s killing, as Duterte was heavily criticized in the slain journalist’s commentary.
