MANILA, Philippines — The Quezon City government has raised to P5 million its cash reward offer for the arrest of those behind the brazen murder of Barangay Bagong Silangan Captain Crisell Beltran.

This was revealed Thursday by Quezon City Police District (QCPD) Director Chief Supt. Joselito Esquivel Jr., a day after the local government said it would be offering P3 million cash reward in a bid to expedite the resolution of the case.

Beltran and her driver Melchor Salita were aboard an SUV and traversing a street in Barangay Bagong Silangan when motorcycle-riding suspects cut their path and shot them to death on Wednesday, January 30.

Esquivel said investigators are now eyeing at least six suspects in the case. He said they have already identified several persons of interest. /kga
