The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) filed a murder complaint against a certain Ramon Pangan, a doctor and Pampanga resident, over the killing of retired Court of Appeals (CA) associate justice Normandie Pizarro.
In excerpts of the complaint dated February 22, the NBI said Pangan had glaring inconsistencies in his affidavit about the details of the day Pizarro was last seen, which was October 23, 2020.
Pizarro was spotted at a casino in Clark, Pampanga, on October 23, but by afternoon, his vehicle was seen abandoned in the town of San Simon. Bloodstains were seen in the vehicle.

Vice President Leni Robredo visited the wake of slain Calbayog City Mayor Ronaldo Aquino, whose murder she vehemently denounced over a week ago.
Robredo paid her respects to Aquino in Calbayog City on Wednesday, March 17. The city’s information office posted photos of the Vice President’s private visit to the wake on its official Facebook page.
The Philippine opposition leader earlier issued a scathing condemnation of Aquino’s death, saying the culture of impunity and the “kill, kill, kill rhetoric” coming from President Rodrigo Duterte’s government “enable” murder in the country.
