Justice Secretary Boying Remulla says he believes Marvin Miranda, a military reservist, got his instructions from Teves himself.
MANILA, Philippines – A “longtime bodyguard” of Negros Oriental 3rd District Representative Arnolfo “Arnie” Teves is in the custody of the National Bureau of Investigation, according to the joint task force investigating the assassination of Negros Oriental Governor Roel Degamo.
On Miranda’s role, the justice secretary said, “if we are using a movie as an analogy, Marvin was the director, producer of the props, and casting director. He recruited the people. Teves was the executive producer of the whole production.” The task force has filed complaints against all 11 suspects in custody so far, at least nine of whom are ex-military personnel.
Six other suspects, “mostly soldiers,” with one “trainee,” according to Remulla. They are Isturis Winrich, Rogelio Antipolo, Gonyon Eugelio Jr., John Louie Gonyon, Romel Pattaguan, and Dahniel Lora.
