A 52-year-old Indian businessman Kulpal Singh was shot dead in Barangay Milagrosa in Project 4, Quezon City on Fri morning, Jul 31.
“Case investigator Police Officer 2 Anthony Tejerero said that Singh, a resident of Xavierville Subdivision, was lying on the ground beside his motorcycle when he was found by barangay councilor Eric Fuerte. Singh had been shot repeatedly,” reports Robertzon Ramirez in The Philippine Star.
The report noted: “Fuerte was in his house when he heard successive gunshots, then saw two men on a motorcycle speed past. He said the passenger was carrying a handgun. Tejerero said Fuerte called up barangay watchmen to help him report the incident. Two 9mm cartridge cases and a deformed slug were found at the scene.”
Police are now trying to establish the motive for the shooting, as Singh’s belongings and motorcycle were intact. The investigators are also examining CCTV footage.
