City—Relatives of murdered teenager Donna
Mae Doña have offered P100,000 as reward for anyone who can help in pinpointing
the mastermind/s of the grisly crime.
Donna Mae was found dead at
the Talingaan Sand Dunes in this city on May 25, 2015.
The reward money was put up after
the victim’s interment. Originally, the victim’s uncle, identified only as
“Berlin” offered P50,000 as reward for the capture of the victim’s killer/s; he
later doubled the reward money to P100,000.
Donna Mae is from Brgy.
Casili in this city, was 17 years old and was enrolled for this school year.
Reacting to this, Laoag Mayor
Chevylle V. Fariñas said she will confer with Laoag police chief P/Supt.
Jeffrey Gorospe on whether the reward money is a “wise” option.
She explained that the city
government has so far not offered any reward for any case since “Masol-solvar met dagitay kas-kaso”.
She however stressed that she
would rely on the recommendation of the police chief on this matter.
Reached for his own comment,
Mr. Gorospe said: “Nasayaat met daytoy
kapanunutan iti pamilya ni Dona Mae a
mangted dat reward ta bareng adda
makaited ti impormasyon a pangrugyan tapnu masolbar daytoy a kaso.”
Mr. Gorospe however stressed
that the on-going investigation will not be affected by the reward money
offered.
He added that the only
problem he sees in offering a reward money is that some people may give
misleading information because of it and may result in confusing the ongoing
investigation.
As of press time, Mr. Gorospe
disclosed that they still has no eyewitness yet neither any witness that can
even give even the smallest description of the suspect/s.
Donna Mae’s remains was
discovered by Benny Ruiz, chief tanod of Brgy. Talingaan on May 25, 2015 at
about 6:50 am. The victim was not identified until after a day since she was
found.
Post mortem examinations
stated that the victim suffered around 40 stab wounds in different parts of her
body that caused her death.
