Lilibeth Valdez, the 52-year-old grandmother, killed by drunk police in Barangay Greater Fairview, Quezon City on Monday, will be buried at 1 p.m. this Wednesday.
Valdez will be buried in a small vacant lot near their house, a few steps from the place where she was killed in Sitio Ruby, which has been quiet overnight.
Her relatives still did not give an interview again.
Meanwhile, the barangay tanods were on guard here.
Currently, the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) is also investigating the incident.
The police shot the victim, and the CHR is mandated to investigate the abuses and killings by state forces.
The CHR urges the PNP to implement internal cleansing to reduce human rights violations in the country.
The suspect was identified as Police Master Sergeant Hensie Zinampan, assigned to the Police Security and Protection Group.
The grandmother was identified as Lilibeth Valdez.
The video even captured the whole incident at Sitio Ruby.
It was nine o’clock Monday night when the victim bought a cigarette at the store.
CHR to probe death of grandmother shot by cop
The suspect immediately approached, pulled a gun from the bag, placed it behind him, and spoke to the victim.
The suspect can be heard in the video saying that they were both drunk.
The suspect later pulled the hair of the victim. The victim pleaded but was shot at close range by the suspect. The 52-year-old grandmother died on the spot.
The suspect immediately walked away.
According to Beverly Luceño, the victim’s daughter, the suspect, and her older brother argued before the shooting. They allegedly fought because they were both drunk.
Fairview Police arrested the suspect, and they seized from him the gun allegedly used in the crime.
The policeman flatly denied it and said that he did not commit the crime, even though there was a video.
Meanwhile, Philippine National Police chief General Guillermo Eleazar said the incident was unacceptable because the police should protect the people.
Eleazar ordered the Quezon City Police District to immediately file administrative charges against the suspect so that he can be removed from service.
