Nueva Ecija's most wanted falls


PALAYAN CITY: Gov. Tomas N. Joson 3rd put an “X” mark on the poster picture of the most wanted person in the Second District of Nueva Ecija even as the man accused of murder was presented to him on Tuesday.

Senior Supt. Alex Paul I. Monteagudo, director of the Nueva Ecija police provincial office, presented the suspect to Joson at the Nueva Ecija Convention Cen­ter.

The accused was identified as Ariel B. Buban, 29, a resident of Ro­mano Street, Rafael Rueda, San Jose City.

Buban, who was subject of the warrant of arrest issued by Judge Joselito Villarosa of Regional Trial Court Branch 39, was arrested by elements of the provincial mobile group, led by Supt. Rolando Santos, in Mandaluyong City the other day.

He was accused of killing a certain Teofilo Gines last year.

Monteagudo told Joson that the arrest of Buban was a result of the production of various posters, which was funded by the provincial government. “We intended to gain public support when we produced these posters,” Monteagudo explained. - Armand M. Galang,
