The remains of a Filipino woman who was slain in Singapore last March 15 arrived in Manila Friday night and was received by her sister at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport's cargo section.
A report on dzXL radio on Saturday said the body of Roselyn Reyes Pascua was brought to Manila on a Cebu Pacific flight at 9:05 p.m.
Pascua’s sister Jenny Leda said they plan to bury the remains this coming Tuesday at the Garden of East Memorial Park in Sta. Cruz, Laguna.
Pascua, 30, was found with stab wounds in her rented room at Bencoolen Street before dawn last March 15.
The Philippine Embassy in Singapore said Pascua entered Singapore on February 3 as a tourist and extended her social visit pass until April 4.
She was staying alone in a rented room at the Peony Mansion when the incident occurred.
Police arrested an Indian suspected to be behind the killing of Pascua. The Singapore Police Force (SPF) did not identify the suspect but said he was 34 years old.
“Murder is a serious crime. We will spare no efforts to bring the perpetrator to justice. My officers have worked round the clock and left no stone unturned in their hunt for the suspect," said Senior Assistant Commissioner Ng Boon Gay, director of the Criminal Investigation Department. — LBG, GMANews.TV
