Suspect in Masbate journo slay arrested in QC

Jun Briones

MANILA (Bicol Standard) -- The National Press Club (NPC) through its President Rolly ‘Lakay’ Gonzalo has announced the arrest of one of the alleged gunmen in the murder last year of tabloid columnist and NPC member Joaquin ‘Jun’ Briones.

It will be recalled that the Bicolano columnist was shot repeatedly by suspected hired killers along the national highway in Sitio Feeder, Bgy. Bacolod, Milagros, Masbate province on March 13, 2017.

Information reaching the NPC disclosed that suspect Antonio Villaran del Rosario was collared in the vicinity of Tandang Sora Avenue, Quezon City early morning of Thursday, July 12, 2018, by the elements of the Masbate CIDG office under Chief Insp. Vitallano Pagaran, in coordination with the Quezon City Police District.

Del Rosario has been positively identified by one of the witnesses in the murder of Briones. He is presently detained in Quezon City pending his transfer back to Masbate.

The suspect, according to his police profile, is a hardened criminal involved not only in contract killing but also, in robbery/holdup; the suspect also ranks as the ‘number one most wanted person’ in the municipality of Balud, Masbate, Gonzalo added.

A warrant for del Rosario’s arrest for the murder of Briones was issued by the Hon. Arturo Clemente Revil of the Masbate Regional Trial Court on September 6, 2017.

"Even as we continue to fondly remember Jun as an active member of the NPC, we now also express our sense of relief that at long last, the first step in giving justice for his murder has finally begun with the arrest of del Rosario,” Gonzalo added.

Gonzalo also urged the authorities to compel the suspect to reveal those who contracted him to kill Briones.

"Laudable the arrest of del Rosario is, substantive justice also demands that those who paid him money to kill our colleague should also be unmasked, face trial and put behind bars,” Gonzalo said.

UCT payout commences for indigent senior citizens in Bicol on July 14

Legazpi City—The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) Region V will start its payout of the PhP2,400 under its Unconditional Cash Transfer (UCT) Program to 195,107 indigent senior citizens as its target beneficiaries in Bicol.

There will be a simultaneous payout tomorrow (July 14) in different towns in Catanduanes, Albay, Sorsogon, Camarines Norte and Camarines Sur.

With the ongoing payout, Social Pension Program beneficiaries are advised to present their Office of the Senior Citizens Affairs (OSCA) ID and Certification Issued by DSWD Regional Office.

UCT is a cash subsidy provided under the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) law to lessen the adverse economic effects brought by the said law to poor Filipinos. This will be implemented for three years (2018-2020).

“The UCT cash grant cannot cover all the household expenses. This is only an augmentation to the poor affected by the inflation,” Dir. Arnel Garcia said.

For this year, each beneficiary will receive a total of PhP2,400 which is equivalent to PhP200 per month and for the succeeding years, a beneficiary will receive PhP300 monthly or PhP3,600 annually.

The UCT will be given to beneficiaries of Social Pension and Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) and Listahanan-identified poor households.

To date, DSWD paid a total amount of PhP897,964,800.00 to 374,152 households under Pantawid Pamilya in Bicol.

On the other hand, DSWD Region V has completed the validation of 147,486 Listahanan-identified poor households for potential inclusion in the UCT Program.

The DSWD targets to complete the release of the grant before the end of the year or by September.

The DSWD has partnered with the Landbank of the Philippines (LBP) to handle and monitor the distribution of grants.
