DINALUPIHAN, Bataan — Two still unidentified men shot and killed a Pakistani national inside his resort in Barangay J.C. Payumo here Tuesday afternoon.
Police Capt. Michelle Agnetha Gaviola, Bataan police information officer, said two men, one wearing black shirt and bonnet and the other wearing white shirt gunned down Pakistani Imran Akhtar, 44, in Aryan Resort.
She said that upon receiving a report of the shooting incident, personnel of the Dinalupihan police led by chief of police Lt. Col. Joel Aparejado proceeded to the resort and found the body of the victim.
Gaviola said investigation showed that the victim entertained the suspects who were inquiring on the resort and later gunshots were heard.
Jenna Manalang Akhtar, wife of the Pakistani, said she was in the second floor of the resort building when her mother informed her that a guest was asking for booking the next day.
“Di ko alam yung nangyari kasi may narinig na lang kaming mga ilang minuto siguro o mga kalahating oras ganoon, may narinig na lang na putok. Tatlong putok ng baril. Tapos noong hinanap ko yung kasama ko tinawagan ko, kasi nga tumawag ang nanay ko, ano daw yong pumutok. Akala namin nagsisiga lang eh wala naman nagsisiga kasi kapag nagsisiga may pumuputok mga bote sa sinisigaan namin,” she said.
“Ang nangyari, tumawag ang nanay ko kasi nakita niya yung motor parang humaharurot na paalis dalawa nakasakay daw sa motor. Nung tinawagan ko nga yung katulong namin sabi hindi nila alam kung nasaan ang kuya nila (Pakistani) kaya hinanap namin pagkita ko nakabulagta na yung asawa ko,” Jenna said.
“Kung sino man ang makapagtuturo sa pumatay sa asawa ko, baka puwede ninyo kaming tulungan,” she appealed.
She said she does not know of any enemy of her husband of 18 years. The Pakistani left her three children aged 6 to 17 years.
