Indian moneylender fatally shot in Sultan Kudarat, 5th victim since 2022

Another Indian moneylender, Jagmeet Singh, was fatally shot on Sunday, November 2, in Sultan Kudarat, Maguindanao del Norte, becoming the fifth such victim in Central Mindanao since 2022.

Singh was shot in the head while collecting loan payments from villagers along a highway by three assailants who approached him from behind.

The attackers fled with the victim's sling bag containing cash collections before local law enforcement and barangay officials could arrive.

Moro community leaders identified two of the gunmen by their aliases, Monib and Sattar, who are reportedly involved in contract killing and large-scale drug trafficking.

Previous killings of Indian moneylenders have occurred in various locations across Maguindanao del Norte, Maguindanao del Sur, Sultan Kudarat, Midsayap, and Koronadal City.
