The police have more than five witnesses who have provided circumstantial evidence in connection with the brutal attack of three siblings, one of whom died, in Silay City, a police official said.
However, they are still searching for an eyewitness, Capt. Judesses Catalogo, spokesperson of the Negros Occidental Provincial Police Office, said on Wednesday, Feb. 25.
The 9-year-old girl was killed and her 15-year-old sister and 4-year-old brother were injured when they were brutally attacked at their home in Hacienda Badiang, Brgy. E. Lopez, Silay City, on Feb. 7.
Catalogo said they are still in the process of a case build-up.
They have no suspects yet, only persons of interest, he said.
Those who testify can be covered under the witness protection program, he said.*
