LAPU TOWING

THE director of the Lapu-Lapu City Police Office (LLCPO) clarified that the traffic police in coordination with City Traffic Management System (CTMS) will be implementing the towing services in the city.

Senior Supt. Anthony Obenza told Cebu Daily News it is not the police and Special Weapons and Tactics (Swat) that would identify illegally parked vehicles in public roads but the traffic police with the CTMS personnel.

BELLA: I’M AFRAID

SHE is worried for her safety.

Because of this, Bella Ruby Santos is contemplating on leaving Cebu for Manila.

Her decision came after unidentified burglars purportedly ransacked her residence in barangay Inayagan, Naga City, last Wednesday night.

Santos, one of the primary suspects in the kidnap-murder of 6-year-old Ellah Joy Pique, lost her laptop, two digital cameras, and an iTouch—all amounting to P100,000.
The perpetrators are still unidentified, Santos said.

“I’m afraid to be alone,” she said.

Santos, along with her British partner Ian Charles Griffiths, is facing charges of kidnapping with homicide before the Cebu Provincial Prosecutors’ Office.
