A P500,000 reward has been offered for information leading to the arrest of three suspects involved in the killing of a police officer in Cebu City.
Police Capt. Joel Deiparine of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) was killed during a shootout while investigating loose firearms.
Executive Master Sgt. Artchel Tero of the CIDG was wounded in the incident.
The reward money was contributed by the Cebu City local government unit, the regional director of Police Regional Office 7, and an anonymous donor.
Captain Deiparine was posthumously awarded the PNP Heroism Medal, and his family received financial assistance.
The suspects are believed to be members of a gun-for-hire group, though their group's size and operational history are still under investigation.
