MANILA – The National Bureau of Investigation-7 (NBI-7) suspects foul play in the death of an alleged shoplifter arrested in a Cebu City mall.
NBI-7 conducted a second autopsy on Mario Alfie Dacayag, who died while in police custody.
Dr. Rene Cam, NBI-7 medico legal officer, said Dacayag’s body had several bruises and injuries on the neck that caused his death.
Dacayag was arrested on April 12 after he was allegedly caught stealing a pair of slippers from the mall.
The NBI-7 will investigate 7 mall personnel involved in Dacayag’s arrest.
The agency has requested from the mall a copy of the closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage of the alleged shoplifting. -- Report from Junrey Nadela, ABS-CBN News Central Visayas
