MANILA, Philippines — Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla said Friday that it is “very possible” that authorities investigating the fatal ambush of broadcaster Percy Lapid have identified the brains behind his killing.

 

“It’s very possible,” Remulla told reporters in a chance interview when asked if authorities have determined who is the mastermind in the Lapid slay. “We still have to evaluate everything.”

 

Police said Monday they have identified 160 persons of interest in the killing of Lapid, including suspended Bureau of Corrections chief Gerald Bantag.
