00:21A person of interest has been charged with the murder of the beauty pageant contestant, Geneva Lopez, and her boyfriend, Israeli, Yitzhak Cohen.
00:33Alias Junjun voluntarily approached the authorities.
00:36The driver of the car that brought the couple to the quiet site in Capa Sarlac, where they were buried.
00:42Based on the testimony of Alias Junjun, who is a mechanic, he was included in the group that was involved in the crime
00:48because there was a heavy equipment to be repaired.
00:50But he was very surprised when he arrived at the site and was just driven in an SUV.
01:13Alias Junjun was the one who drove the SUV of the victims while the suspects were in another car,
01:21going to the quiet site where Geneva Yitzhak was buried.
01:33The driver was ordered to burn the SUV used by the couple, which was found to be burning for several days since they left.
01:43Alias Junjun was ordered to burn the SUV used by the couple, which was found to be burning for several days since they left.
01:49One of the suspects, Alias Junjun, was ordered to burn the SUV of the victims, which was found to be burning for several days since they left.
01:53But it was not carried out by the group.
01:56According to the PNP, it is possible for him to be a state witness.
02:00He was held by the PNP.
02:01Two other accomplices were also looking for him in the planning of the crime.
02:05With respect to the accounts, we already have names, even aliases.
02:10So that is the direction we are looking for the civilians.
02:14According to the investigation, Guiang was buried in Magnobio.
02:18In order for him to recover, he accused Abuso, a buyer, to allow the two of them to meet.
02:24According to the lawyer of the family of Geneva Lopez,
02:27the victims and their relatives already knew the main suspect, the former police,
02:33because they already had a transaction that has something to do with the ground.
02:37They're very comfortable, maybe they're confident that it's just an ordinary business transaction again.
02:43It's not just their transaction, there's another property.
02:46It runs by the million. There's 7.8 and 12-something hectares.
02:52According to the family of Geneva, the search for justice is not yet over until the perpetrators are punished.
03:00They will release the statement after Geneva was buried on Friday.
03:04The PNP is completing the evidence against the suspects in the killing of the two victims.
03:10Here are the remains of the relatives of Geneva, documents and CCTV footage that were captured in the investigation.
03:18Hopefully, within the week, they will be able to file a case for double murder against the POIs.
03:26The family of the victims also asked for a chance to open the case first
03:34because we also need to get statements from the relatives of the victims
03:39so that they will be able to file a private complaint.
03:42The PNP's motive is the problem of the land invasion,
03:46that's why they planned to kill Geneva and Itsak.
03:49The case of two counts of murder against the suspects held by the PNP is being prepared.
