This was on November 11, 2007. Despite of so many killings of politicians here in our country, why is it there is so many people running for a such position? are they afraid of death? Or if they were dead, they could give them a descent burial? Hehehehe... Do you love that? There are so many news regarding killing a political people by a hired gunman. Are they hired also by there opponent in politics? How about this news...
The legal affairs chief of the Philippine Commission on Elections, Lawyer Alioden Dalaig, was gunned down Saturday night in downtown Metro Manila, the local TV network ABS-CBN reported Sunday.
Quoting police source, the overnight report said Alioden Dalaig was shot by an unidentified gunman in the chest when he was walking around 7 p.m. He was rushed to hospital but was declared dead on arrival.
Police had ruled out robbery as motive as about 300,000 pesos (6,970 U.S. dollars) cash Dalaig carried with him was intact following the attack.
Dalaig's wife told reporters that the lawyer received death threats at least five times before the attack.
The killing came in the wake of controversies surrounding the creation of a screening committee to evaluate candidates for the new chairman and vacancies in the Commission on Elections (COMELEC). Dalaig was among the nominees for the vacancies.
COMELEC spokesman James Jimenez said Dalaig has been serving the commission for 30 years and was on his way to retirement.
