MAYOR BENG Climaco vowed to seek justice for the slain Pepsi Cola manager who was killed by a lone gunman near her home in Zamboanga City.
Police said the killer escaped after shooting the 48-year Loisabelle Lee in Barangay Tetuan on February 18. Lee was driving her car and heading home when the assailant who was waiting for her in an alley, shot her in the chest.
The gunman escaped on a motorcycle after the shooting.
“It is so unfortunate that this happened at a time when we are barely a week before the start of the Women’s Month celebration. The City Government joins her family, relatives and friends in mourning her loss. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the family,” she said.
Climaco earlier ordered the police thoroughly investigate the murder. She said authorities have to strengthen their security deployment plan to enhance visibility and deter lawless elements from targeting innocent civilians.
She said that her administration will never cease from supporting and assisting the security sector in all aspects for the safety and security of Zamboanga and its residents, and also appealed for public support and cooperation on the implementation of security measures.
Police have not released any progress report on Lee’s murder. (Zamboanga Post)
