WHO KILLED STEPHEN AND JAMIE? Stephen del Corro, 26, (left) and his girlfriend Jamie Mata, 16, (right) were found dead in Liloan, Cebu, on Tuesday morning. They were last seen on Monday in Barangay Mabolo, Cebu City. Mata, who was shot in the head, was identified by her family because of the necklace she was wearing (shown in the photo) when she was found in Liloan.

The Police Regional Office in Central Visayas (PRO-7) dismissed fraternity war as the motive in the killing of Stephen del Corro and Jamie Mata.

Chief Supt. Debold Sinas, PRO-7 director, said that they are now looking into illegal drugs as the primary motive of the crime.

Sinas added that the victims are allegedly linked to a local drug group.

The police director, however, refused to divulge the name of the drug group.
