NBI files raps vs 5 cops involved in Ragos’ killing

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) has filed charges against five cops involved in the killing of former military man Winston Ragos in a quarantine checkpoint in Quezon City.

Charges of murder, perjury, and planting of evidence have been filed at the Quezon City Prosecutor’s Office against Police Master Sergeant Daniel Florendo and 4 police trainees.

Florendo now faces murder raps after shooting Ragos despite bystanders’ warning on the latter’s mental condition and that he was unarmed.

The policemen initially stated that Ragos was armed but the CCTV footage of the incident showed otherwise.

The NBI further revealed that the gun presented by the police has not gone through the proper process of acquiring evidence from the crime scene.
