CEBU CITY, Philippines — Naga City police are currently backtracking the errands of the public school teacher before he was stabbed and left dead inside a room in Inoburan Elementary School in Barangay Inoburan, Naga City at around 1 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 16, 2022.
Police Lieutenant Colonel Junnel Caadlawon, chief of Naga City Police Station, identified the victim as June Leo Pañares, of legal age, a resident of Barangay Tinaan in Naga City.
Pañares was found dead by his co-teacher Simon Cereño around 1 p.m. on Sunday.
“Mura ni siya og office sa mga maestra. Dili gyud ni classroom,” Caadlawon said of the crime scene.
(This seems like an office for teachers. This is not really a classroom.)
Pañares was stabbed multiple times in different parts of his body using a knife that was also found at the crime scene together with a pair of scissors.
Caadlawon said that based on the accounts of Cereño, they last communicated with the victim around 7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 15.
He said that Cereño told them that the victim chatted and informed him that he was in school along with the 7/11 boys.
Having initial information as of this time, Caadlawon said that they were still backtracking on who was with the victim before the incident happened.
They gathered a copy of the security camera from an establishment where Pañares was seen around 6 to 7 p.m. on Saturday.
“Dili mi ka [ingun] nga mga estudyante ni [7/11 boys] kay kato iyang ka text nga maestra nagingun og asa ka unya ana siya nagkuyog sa mga 7/11 boys. Mao to giadto namo unya amoang gipangutana kinsay permi kuyog nya,” Caadlawon said.
(We cannot say that they were students [7/11 boys] because what the text between the victim and the co-teacher showed that the co-teacher asked where he was, and he answered I am with the 7/11 boys. That is why we went there to ask who would usually accompany the victim.)
Naga City, which is a fifth class component city of the province of Cebu, is approximately 20 kilometers south of Cebu City.
