Philippine National Police Chief Guillermo Eleazar assured that justice will be served for the family of the victim who was shot dead in Quezon City.
A police officer will face murder charges after he killed a 52-year-old woman without mercy.
According to a police report, Master Sergeant Hensie Zinampan, who is assigned to the Philippine National Police – Police Security and Protection Group, shot Lilibeth Valdez in Barangay Greater Fairview.
The victim’s daughter said that her mother came from a store when the policeman approached the victim, pulled her hair, and shot her in the neck.

Authorities are looking at ‘revenge’ as a possible motive since the victim’s son and the same policeman were involved in a fistfight last May 1.
PNP Chief Guillermo Eleazar on Tuesday ordered the filing of administrative and criminal charges against Zinampan, saying the video evidence speaks strongly about the policeman’s guilt.
“Kung walang video, total denial. Titignan ka pa ng buong kasinungalingan. Pero nung nakita ang video, hindi na siya pwedeng tumanggi dito,” Eleazar said.
“A case of murder will be filed against him today. Admin case will be initiated so the soonest possible time mawala siya, hindi masabing pulis,” the PNP chief said in a media briefing. (TDT)
