"In these cases, we should bear in mind that there is a
task force that has been setup and that we can point to cases moving
faster," he said.
Media killings like the case of Ordaniza requires thorough investigation to bring the perpetrators to justice.
"So let us all call for and support the thorough investigation of this terrible tragedy to ensure that a case that is water tight is filed," Quezon said.
Quezon also said that the case is already in the disposition of the court and the executive branch can do nothing about the pace of the litigation in the court.
Ordaniza was very critical against the proliferation of prohibited drugs and illegal gambling and police suspected that he was gunned down because of his stand against drugs and gambling.
Elvis Ordaniza, 49, works for the dxWO Power 99 FM of the Times Broadcasting Network based in Pagadian City.
Police said Ordaniza was gunned around 7:10 p.m. Tuesday, February 16, at Purok Bagong Silang in the village of Poblacion, Pitogo in Zamboanga Del Sur. (PCOO News Release)
