MANILA – The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) has slapped Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) board member Sandra Cam with murder charges over the death of a vice mayor in Masbate town last year.

Cam was charged with murder and frustrated murder in the death of Batuan, Masbate vice mayor Charlie Yuson III in Sampaloc, Manila last Oct. 9. She has previously denied involvement in the incident, which also injured two other men.

Aside from Cam, the NBI’s death investigation division also sought the prosecution of her son, Marco Martin Cam; Nelson Cambaya; Junel Gomez; Bradford Solis; Juanito de Luna; and Rigor dela Cruz.

The NBI named Yuson’s widow, Lalaine; Charlie, Yuson, Jr., and Rufino Alforte as complainants.

Yuson, Wilfredo Pineda and Alberto Alforte were having breakfast when they were shot. Pineda and Alforte meanwhile were injured and were taken to the University of Santo Tomas Hospital for treatment.

Cam is being pointed as the one who has a motive in killing Yuson III as his son, Charmax, had won the mayoralty race over Sandra’s son, Marco. Cam has vehemently denied being the suspect.

“It is so unfair that our family is being dragged into this, we’ve moved on from that election,” Cam said before. “Me and my son had nothing to do with that ambush of Vice Mayor and OIC Mayor of our town, Batuan,”

“As a mother, I sympathize with the bereaved family [pero] hindi po totoo na politically motivated ‘yan. Wait for the investigation to roll, huwag muna sana tayong gumawa ng mga speculation,” she added./PN
