From Tempo (Jan 17): Newsman’s killer nabbed in Bataan
MORONG, Bataan – Police arrested yesterday morning a suspected member of the New People’s Army (NPA) who allegedly shot dead a radio field reporter eight years ago in this town.
Senior Supt. Audie Atienza, police director, said the suspect – Nestor Nazareno, 57, of Poblacion, Morong, Bataan – was caught off guard when collared by his men inside his house near a barangay hall in Poblacion.
The arrest of Nazareno was based on a warrant of arrest issued by Judge Manuel Tan of the Regional Trial Court Branch 2 in Balanga City, for the killing of Gary Aquino, a local newsman and reporter of dzRH.
“He did not resist arrest when we surprised him at his house at around 5:30 in the morning,” said Supt. Joshua F. Alejandro.
According to Atienza, Nazareno joined the underground movement after his father, a former chief of police in this town, was assassinated by members of the rebels several years ago.
Atienza theorized that Nazareno entered the NPA to identify the rebels who killed his father.
