GENERAL SANTOS CITY--The primary suspect in the killing of a prosecutor of the Office of the Ombudsman in Quezon City on Monday has a standing arrest warrant here for the murder of a relative early this year, a police official said.

Supt. Aldrin Gonzales, public information officer of the Police Regional Office (PRO)-12, said Wednesday that suspect Angelito Avenido Jr. is facing charges for stabbing to death his cousin Noel Gallardo in Barangay Bula in Feb. 27.

Gonzales said Avenido immediately fled after the incident and remained at-large until his arrest hours after also stabbing to death Prosecutor Madonna Joy Ednaco-Tanyag in Barangay Vasra along Visayas Avenue in Quezon City Monday morning.

"That case (Gallardo killing) happened just days after he was freed from the city jail," he told PNA.

Citing records from the city police office, Gonzales said Avenido had spent some time at the Lanton Reformatory Center in Barangay Apopong for drug-related charges.

But the 31-year-old suspect was reportedly allowed to post bail and eventually released from detention last Feb. 14.

Gonzales said the PRO-12 is currently coordinating with the Quezon City Police Office and concerned units over Avenido's pending murder case in this city. (PNA)
