THE family and friends of four-year-old Emmanuel Martinez Jr. bid farewell to him as his remains were buried at the public cemetery in Barangay Calamba, Cebu City at 3:30 pm yesterday.
The mourners wore a T-shirt bearing the young Martinez’s face as white balloons were released minutes after his burial.
In his message, PO1 Emmanuel Martinez Sr. said his son wanted to become a policeman like him and his son’s early death should remind parents to always keep watch over their children.
The young Martinez was stabbed to death allegedly by a balut vendor named Danilo Remulta who was supposedly drunk at the time. The 49-year-old Remulta remains detained at the Mambaling police precinct last Thursday.
