00:00One of the most wanted in Capiz, Barker, and Bananacue vendors in Quezon City right now.
00:05When the authorities heard it,
00:07Smile! It's still Kuya!
00:09But the good mood was suddenly destroyed because he wasn't the one being searched by the Lesbos.
00:15Bossas! Bossas! Bossas!
00:19Do you want to be a heavy vendor?
00:21Huh?
00:23The suspect is said to be a mastermind in a bloody robbery in the middle of the street.
00:28A year has passed
00:30when he thought that a long time has passed
00:33as if a ghost of the past is coming back.
00:42A happy guy in Capiz went home in a hurry.
00:46And what happened?
00:48He went to Manila in a french exit.
00:52He didn't expect that the man he was looking for was alive.
00:56Party's not over. Where are you, Kuya?
00:59The operative will give you a warrant of arrest.
01:04It was an early day in May 2015
01:06when Fred Miranda, a 52-year-old gulang, was found bleeding inside a tricycle.
01:10According to the former barangay captain,
01:12who was the first to respond to the crime scene,
01:14it was just after a disco or a party in their barangay
01:18when the suspect, Ben Ostaga, appeared.
01:23After the disco,
01:25the people went home.
01:27And when they went home,
01:29that's when the incident happened.
01:33The people ran to me
01:35and said that someone was stabbed outside the barangay.
01:41The former captain went to the victim.
01:44I also saw the knife on his side.
01:48I couldn't do anything.
01:50I just got a service here at home.
01:52I was taken to the hospital.
01:55Fred was rushed to the hospital from the barangay in San Vicente.
01:59When he arrived at the hospital,
02:01the victim was already missing.
02:06According to the police blotter issued by the Hamingdan Police,
02:09the ruler was 13 inches long.
02:12The suspect used a large knife to stab the victim.
02:16This is how long Fred was stabbed
02:18in the body that became the reason for Fred's life-threatening situation.
02:23A few hours later,
02:24his wife Perla Miranda,
02:26who is 50 years old,
02:27found out that her husband was stabbed in the disco.
02:30He was very sick.
02:32He was in a lot of pain.
02:34He was in a lot of pain.
02:36He was in a lot of pain.
02:38He was in a lot of pain.
02:39He was in a lot of pain.
02:40He was in a lot of pain.
02:41I even brought my husband and sister to the hospital.
02:48Upon arriving at the hospital,
02:49Perla couldn't talk to her husband
02:51who was still unconscious
02:53due to the deep wound he had.
02:56He was in a lot of pain.
02:59He was in a lot of pain.
03:00He was in a lot of pain.
03:01I couldn't take care of him.
03:04He was still young.
03:08I can't do it. I have a child.
03:10But the most shocking thing is that the suspect, Ben,
03:14immediately escaped from their province.
03:17That's why Perla asked the suspect to hide the body.
03:21What we want to tell our loved ones is that
03:24you should hide the body so that justice can be served
03:30for the death of my husband.
03:32He was admitted to the hospital.
03:35I have a copy of the medical legal certificate.
03:38Aside from the stabbing in the back,
03:40the victim needed an operation because
03:43the knife went through his leg
03:45which is almost 10 inches long.
03:49The authorities immediately carried out a backtracking operation.
03:52Our investigator went to the crime scene
03:55and there was a witness who saw and identified the suspect.
03:59After the stabbing, the suspect immediately ran away.
04:01The vehicle they used was a multi-cab.
04:04It was slow.
04:05It took more than an hour to get to the hospital.
04:08How did this bloody incident happen
04:11that should have been a happy discovery for the barangay?
04:14On December 3, 2024,
04:16together with the Hamindan Police and Barangay San Vicente,
04:20they went to the place where the victim was stabbed.
04:24According to the investigation carried out by Barangay San Vicente to the authorities,
04:28both the victim, Fred, and the suspect, Ben, were in the same place.
04:33The chaos started when both Ben and Fred's son, Julius, were drunk.
04:38Julius took Ben's bottle
04:41and because he wanted to get revenge,
04:43this is where Ben came out with a knife
04:45and stabbed Julius.
04:49His father, Fred, was stabbed.
04:52It's not Fred's fault.
04:55The other day, there was a disco in the other barangay
04:59and his children were drunk.
05:02They were always drinking.
05:04After the dance, they got drunk and started fighting.
05:13On May 19, 2015,
05:15a complaint was filed against Fred's family against Ben.
05:18After 4 months, on September 1, 2015,
05:21the warrant of arrest was filed against Ben
05:24that nowhere to be found in their place.
05:27Within a year, Ben Ostaga's authorities were confused.
05:31But in September of this year,
05:33the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group was established to catch the suspect.
05:38How did you know that in the National Capital Region,
05:41in Quezon City,
05:42the target, the accused, was the criminal?
05:46This person bragged that he stabbed them.
05:50He didn't know that he was talking about the ADG Force Multiplier in the community.
05:56This Force Multiplier fell on our floor
06:00and we verified it in our e-warrant.
06:04September 24, 2024,
06:06together with the receipt,
06:07they started looking for the suspect in the terminal
06:10where he worked as a barker.
06:13But after 2 hours,
06:15Ben was nowhere to be found.
06:17October 3, 2024,
06:19the CID-GTSOU tried again to arrest Ben.
06:22After a few minutes,
06:24he was transferred by the operatives
06:26who were selling and talking to the tricycle drivers in a Toda.
06:31Ben, I think your smile is too big for today's video.
06:35Just smile,
06:36because someone wants to say hello to you
06:39from your past.
06:47Ben's big smile
06:48suddenly became sad
06:50because the operatives were not looking for him.
06:53Did you know Ben Vilaran as a tricycle driver?
06:56No.
06:57Tell the truth.
06:58We know him.
06:59I taught him how to ride a tricycle.
07:00Ben, do you have the right to arrest me?
07:03If you don't,
07:04whatever you say,
07:06we can use it against you
07:08in any law.
07:10Ben was brought to the CID-GTSO's office.
07:14The suspect was wearing a receipt.
07:17He even showed the evidence of the beating
07:20of the victim's son.
07:22I ran away.
07:23I ran away.
07:25I didn't mean to.
07:26I was just surprised.
07:27They let me go.
07:30I just ran away.
07:32I was injured here.
07:34According to Ben,
07:35he didn't know that the Friend's family continued the case.
07:38There were no complaints.
07:39Before I came here to Manila,
07:41I heard that there was a warrant.
07:43I said,
07:44I'll just do it.
07:45He sent me away.
07:47Of course,
07:48I was just surprised.
07:50I didn't mean to.
07:52I was so angry.
07:53Ben thought that it was all in the past
07:56that he didn't commit a crime.
07:58But a year passed.
08:00It was as if a ghost came back
08:02from his past.
08:04He didn't know that after a month in the hospital,
08:08Fred was alive.
08:10We fought.
08:11We fought, ma'am.
08:12We fought, ma'am.
08:13We fought, ma'am.
08:14We fought, ma'am.
08:16We fought, ma'am.
08:18Thank you, ma'am,
08:19for saving my life, ma'am.
08:21I was so happy
08:23when I saw him.
08:24I was so happy when I saw him.
08:27I was so happy, ma'am.
08:28I was so happy, ma'am.
08:29I was so happy, ma'am.
08:30Because of the victim,
08:32Ben is facing a frustrated murder case.
08:34How serious is the punishment
08:36of this frustrated murder case?
08:39The penalty is from 12 years to 20 years.
08:43Yes.
08:44That's why it's a bit heavy.
08:47The wound that Fred received
08:48is a deep mark of his second life
08:50and a sign of a grievous crime
08:53that needs to be answered.
08:55In the course of almost a decade,
08:57Fred and his family's hope
09:00remains that they can still use justice.
09:05Thank you so much for watching.
