PREFATORY STATEMENT

In the evening of November 14, 1994, Atty. Eugene Tan, former President of the Integrated Bar of the Philippines and his
driver Eduardo Constantino were abducted by the accused, acting in conspiracy with one another. The victims were forcibly
abducted in Alabang, Muntinlupa and were brought to Cavite where they were shot to death and found in a shallow grave.
The accused were then charged for kidnapping and two counts of murder. The prosecution humbly states and takes the
position that it has presented competent witnesses, clear, convincing and sufficient evidence to prove beyond reasonable
doubt that accused are guilty of committing the crime charged and that the accused miserably failed to present any evidence
that could even raise an iota of doubt as to their guilt of the offenses charged. The Supreme Court has once said that violent
death or brutal killing not only steals from the family of the deceased his precious life, deprives them forever of his love,
affection and support, but often leaves them with the knowing feeling that an injustice has been done to them (People vs.
Caraig, 400 SCRA 67).

I. STATEMENT OF FACTS

During the course of the trial, the Prosecution, through its witnesses were able to establish the following facts:

1. On December 13, 1994 the Department of Justice issued a resolution in the Preliminary investigation of the case
docketed as IS No. 94-557 finding probable cause against Pedro Lim, Bonifacio Roxas, Rodolfo Ochoa, Reynaldo de los
Santos, Venerando Ozores, Toto Mirasol, Mariano Hizon, Eugenio Hizon, Capt. Alfred Abad and Eugene Yu were charged
with an information on November 14, 1994. The said information read:

With intent to kill, qualified by treachery, evident premeditation, taking advantage of superior strength, with the aid of
armed men or by a band, or by employing means or persons to ensure or afford impunity and with the use of a motor vehicle,
consideration of price, reward or promise, conspiring, confederating and mutually helping one another, did then there
willfully, unlawfully and feloniously abduct the (two victims herein), and thereafter, attack, assault and use violence upon the
persons by shooting with a firearm thereby causing instantaneous death.

2. Subsequently, an amended Information was filed against the same accused before this Honorable Court on December 16
and 17, 1994. While under the custody of the Presidential Anti-Crime Commission (PACC) the accused Ochoa and De los
Santos agreed to become state witnesses and thereafter executed separate sworn statements implicating Eugene Yu and the
other accused as to the latters participation in the crime. During the Preliminary Investigation accused Reynaldo de los
Santos and Rodolfo Ochoa were discharged as state witnesses.

The discharge of Delos Santos and Ochoa were questioned before the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court by the other
accused. The Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court, however, upheld the decision of the Department of Justice to
discharge De los Santos and Ochoa as state witnesses.

The gist of the testimonies of witnesses De los Santos and Ochoa are as follows:

Accused Pedro Lim was the one who brought funds for the operation. That he also provided the team led by accused Roxas
with the Nissan Datsun car sometime in September and November 1994 in the surveillance operation made by the team
against the alleged financier ng pula who turned out to be the victim Atty. Eugene Tan.

Memorandum for the Prosecution | eugene a. tan justice for all foundation 02/05/2017, 7)20 PM

That sometime in the first week of November 1994 they saw and overheard accused Pedro Lim talking to Capt. Abad and
Roxas about their plan to finish the surveillance operation and get the financier ng pula as soon as possible and that the
same Datsun Car was used by the same team in the abduction and the killing of the victims.

Sgt. Edgar Butch Abalon, an intelligence operative for the Philippine Air Force, assigned to the 520th Air Base Wing, Office
of the Directorate for Intelligence ODI who was not included in the information testified on the following matter. That he
came to know Peter Lim and Eugene Yu when he and his companions from the ODI responded to a comrades distress call at
the Sanctuario de San Jose Church at Greenhills, San Juan, Metro Manila. The call was about a conflict between siblings Atty.
Gilda Lim and Pedro and Patricia Lim on the other hand. Sgt. Abalon was told by his companions that some of them were
providing security services to Patricia Lim upon orders of Capt. Abad.

After that incident in Sanctuario de San Jose church, Sgt. Abalon was invited by the accused Peter Lim to meet with him and
his sister Patricia. He was told that his sister, Atty. Gilda Lim, was being manipulated by a certain Atty. Eugene Tan in taking
away all the properties belonging to their family. On another occasion, Pedro Lim asked Sgt. Abalon to be his security detail
but Sgt. Abalon refused because he has not received any order from his security officer.

On the witness stand he testified and confirmed his statement executed before the PACC. He testified on the surveillance they
conducted as instructed by their superior officers. He also testified that his superiors told him that the subject of the
surveillance has a standing warrant of arrest. That it took them many days to conduct the surveillance that at one point he
disguised himself as a repairman of PLDT to gain access at the office of the financier ng pula. That he was likewise ordered by
the superior officers to immediately make the necessary arrest of the financier ng pula upon coordination with Bonifacio
Roxas who was designated the leader as he was the one who has knowledge of the financer ng pula.

Sgt. Abalon, as with Ochoa and De los Santos testified that in the evening prior to November 14, 1994, they were instructed by
Captain Abad to effect the arrest of the Financier ng Pula. As per Sgt. Abalons testimony, he said that in the early afternoon
of the same date, he and accused Roxas were instructed by Capt. Abad to effect immediately the arrest of the financer ng pula
because the latter was already pestering Pedro Lim and the other members of his family. That as per information of witness
De los Santos and accused Roxas, the subject was at his office at the Tan Manzano & Velez law office in Makati City.

When the group of Sgt. Abalon and Roxas were able to confirm the victims presence at the said office because of the parked
Mercedes Benz at its reserved space which they earlier identified as belonging to the financier ng pula, they prepared to
execute the plan. Being too early in the place they decided to watch a movie The Shadow at the Makati Cinema Square, to
while away the time. After watching the movie, they all returned to their previous stations near the office of their subject
between 5:30 pm and 6:30 pm.

After failing at first to follow the victims vehicle when it left its reserved parking space as they lost it in traffic, the group was
able to locate the car with the driver and its passengers in Bel-Air Village, Makati City. They continued the stake-out and
when the Mercedes Benz car leave the said location with the two (2) victims on board, they followed it using two vehicles. He
(Abalon) was on board an owner type jeepney driven by accused Ochoa and the other members of the group were in a Datsun
car driven by accused Roxas who is the designated leader of the group.

Before reaching the Nichols exit, accused Roxas radioed Sgt. Abalon who was on board the owner type jeep and told the latter
that they will carry out and start their operation after the Alabang Access road exit which consist of their previous plan to
abduct their subject as hatched by accused Roxas, through a method where the Datsun car being driven by accused Roxas will

https://eugeneatan.wordpress.com/2011/02/24/memorandum-for-the-prosecution/ Page 3 of 18
Memorandum for the Prosecution | eugene a. tan justice for all foundation 02/05/2017, 7)20 PM

overtake the car.

To stop the Mercedes Benz, Roxas will bump the rear portion of the car, which method was carried out by the group. When
they and their subject all passed by the Alabang Toll exit gate, they immediately executed the plan. Roxas blocked the path of
the car and Mirasol bumped the Mercedes Benz and as soon as the victims vehicle stopped on account of the operation and
plan employed by the group of the accused, Ochoa and Bonifacio Roxas immediately alighted from their respective vehicles
and pretended to examine the damage caused by their vehicle to the Mercedes Benz. When the driver of the Mercedes Benz
carrying the victims opened the door, Ozores, Mirasol and Delos Santos and the other members of the same group went out of
their respective vehicles and at that instance accused Roxas and Mirasol grabbed, Eduardo Constantino, the driver of the
Mercedes Benz, and placed him inside the Datsun car.

Accused Ozores then went to the drivers seat of the same Mercedes Benz car and boarded it. During the abduction of the
victims Sgt. Abalon remained inside the owner-jeep and watched his companions abduct the two (2) victims. After getting the
two victims, they traveled along the Alabang-Zapote road towards the direction of Cavite on board the Datsun car driven by
Accused Roxas, with their subjects driver and accused Mirasol as passengers, followed by the Mercedes Benz car driven by
accused Ochoa and carrying victim Tan and accused De los Santos as passengers and the owner type jeep driven by Sgt.
Abalon.

When the subject reached a place fronting the Alabang Twin cinema, accused Roxas ordered Sgt. Abalon over the radio to
transfer to the Mercedes Benz car in order that he could help accused Ochoa in turning off the cars hazard light, which Sgt.
Abalon did. When Sgt. Abalon was inside the Mercedes Benz of the victim he radioed and ask Roxas that they immediately
proceed to their office at the Villamor Air Base for the tactical interrogation of the victims but accused Roxas insisted in
bringing their subject to a safe house first. Roxas informed Sgt. Abalon in the process that the safe house was already cleared
with Capt. Abad. Sgt. Abalon just kept silent and did not insist. After a while, the victim, Tan inquired from Sgt. Abalon why
he was being arrested. The former informed him that a warrant for his arrest was being executed by the group, he being
Wilfredo De Los Santos. To this, victim Eugene Tan responded that he is not Wilfredo de los Santos. That victim Tan also told
him that if it is money they want, he could also give it. Sgt. Abalon just kept his silence.

When the group of Sgt. Abalon together with the two victims reached a place in Dasmarias, Cavite, accused Roxas stopped
the datum car that he was driving, alighted from the car and proceeded towards the Mercedes Benz car which similarly
stopped. Accused Roxas then forcibly dragged the victim Atty. Eugene Tan out of the Mercedes Benz and told him Putang
Ina mo, alam mo bang malaki ang atraso mo kay Peter Lim?, halika nga dito. and placed the victim Atty. Tan inside the
Datsun car. Thereafter, the group of Sgt. Abalon and accused Roxas drove away from the place using the same vehicle but
along the way, Sgt. Abalon attempted to convince accused Roxas that they should bring the victims to the office of Capt. Abad
for tactical interrogation by flagging down the Datsun car being driven by accused Roxas and when the Datsun car stopped
and Bonifacio Roxas rolled down its window glass, Sgt. Abalon saw at the back seat of the same car, that Atty. Tan was already
lying limped together with his driver Eduardo Constantino.

Ochoa and De los Santos on the other hand testified that it was Roxas who shot the victims in the head. This was in the first
affidavit of Roxas. Sgt. Abalon was instructed by Roxas to bring the car of the victim to a place in Cavite. Before that incident
he was able to see the place where the bodies of the victims were brought and buried by Roxas and company. He remembered
it as a place in Silang Cavite.

Then the group went to see Capt. Abad in his house. After informing Capt. Abad of what has happened, the former (Capt.

As and by way of testimonial evidence, the prosecution presented five (5) witness, as testified by:

1. Sgt. Edgar Allan C. Abalon that he, Sgt. Abalon is a member of the Philippine Air Force under the Intelligence
520th ABW. To quote the witness, he was present when Patricia Lim then accompanied by Eugene Yu and Peter Lim had an
ongoing argument with Gilda Lim. Patricia Lim was supposed to be physically hauled to be subjected to psychiatric
examination. Eugene Yu, who was then the fianc of Patricia Lim, thwarted the attempt of Gilda Lim with the help and timely
arrival of some law enforcement agents. Sgt. Abalon further testified that he met Pedro Lim six more times at their office at
the Villamor Air Base during which Pedro Lim always met with Capt. Abad. Sgt. Abalon was allowed to testify as a State
Witness under the Witness Protection program of the government, thus he further stated:

Sometime in October 1994, Capt. Abad ordered Sgt. Abalon together with the other accused and state witnesses to conduct a
surveillance operation on one Wilfredo de los Santos, a financier ng mga pula (NPA)- Alex Boncayao Brigade who in
reality is one of the victim Atty. Eugene Tan, who is demanding revolutionary tax on Pedro Lim. He was also told that
Bonifacio Roxas, one of the accused, can point to him this Wilfredo de los Santos thus he was to coordinate with Bonifacio
Roxas. Bonifacio Roxas then was one of their civilian assets and a protg of Capt. Abad. He, Roxas was likewise assigned
as a security man to Pedro Lim by Capt. Abad.

Sometime in the first week of November 1994, Capt. Abad, Roxas and Pedro Lim were visibly impatient that they wanted

Wilfredo de los Santos picked up because there was already a warrant for his arrest and Pedro Lim was being pressured to
pay the revolutionary tax. Pedro Lim told Sgt. Abalon Kailangan makuha na Butch dahil tinatakot na ako.

On November 7, 1994 Sgt. Abalon, Bonifacio Roxas, Rudy Ochoa, Venerando Ozores, Reynaldo de los Santos and Toto
Mirasol were close to getting Wilfredo de los Santos who they were trailing while the latter was aboard his Nissan Patrol
Car. Except for Toto Mirasol who was Roxas man, Ochoa, Ozores and De los Santos were all Capt. Abads civilian agents.
Capt. Abads instruction was to take Wilfredo de los Santos to his office for tactical interrogation.

On November 14, 1994, the alleged operatives got Wilfredo de los Santos. After trailing Wilfredo de los Santos for
sometime starting from Makati with Roxas driving a Datsun Car along with Reynaldo de los Santos and Toto Mirasol, blocked
the path of Wilfredo de los Santos Mercedes Benz car, 150 meters after the Alabang Toll booth causing the car of the victim
to stop and the owner type jeep driven by Rudy Ochoa bumped the rear of the Mercedes Benz.

Sgt. Abalon was riding the owner type jeep driven by Rudy Ochoa and Venerando Ozores. Bonifacio Roxas then jumped out of
the Datsun car and strangled the victims driver, Eduardo Constantino, for him to obey their instructions. Thereafter he was
put inside the Datsun car with Mirasols help. Venerando Ozores then drove the Mercedes Benz while he and Reynaldo de los
Santos sat with the victim Atty. Eugene Tan at the back seat. Sgt. Abalon then called Roxas to now proceed to the office of
challenger, Capt. Abads call sign, but Bonifacio Roxas, with the agreement of the others, said they were taking the victims
to the safe house.

Along the way Sgt. Abalon had a conversation with Wilfredo de los Santos who inquired why he was being arrested. It was
then that Wilfredo de los Santos told Sgt. Abalon that they got the wrong guy and that he was not Wilfredo de los Santos
but Atty. Eugene Tan. Sgt. Abalon remonstrated over the blunder but he later realized that everyone in the team except he,
knew the real identity of Wilfredo de los Santos to be Atty. Eugene Tan and that they were not taking the victims to Capt.
Abads office but somewhere else. Sgt. Abalon was helpless because everyone else in the team was armed except him.

Upon reaching Dasmarias, Cavite, Bonifacio Roxas alighted from the Datsun car and forcibly dragged Atty. Eugene Tan out
of the car and said to the victim Putang ina mo, alam mo malaki atraso mo kay Peter Lim? Halika nga dito! then forcibly
loaded him aboard the Datsun car and drove further. At this point Reynaldo Engine De Los Santos transferred to the
Datsun Car. Somewhere along the way he, again tried to convince Bonifacio Roxas to bring Atty. Eugene Tan to Capt. Abads
office for tactical interrogation. That he flagged down the Datsun car of Bonifacio Roxas who stopped, then rolled down the
window. Sgt. Abalon then saw the dead bodies of Atty. Eugene Tan and his driver Constantino lying limp and bathed in blood.
Bonifacio Roxas then proceeded to the place of Eugenio Hizon in Silang, Cavite to bury the bodies. Sgt. Abalon and Ozores
followed and when they reached the house the wife of Eugenio Hizon told them, Bonifacio Roxas and his two companions left
and said Dinala na nila, implying that she knew that Bonifacio Roxas and company were going to bury the bodies.

Sgt. Abalon and the other team members, except for Reynaldo de los Santos, all went to see Capt. Abad at the house of Col.
Abelardo Abad. Sgt. Abalon immediately protested and told Capt. Abad Sir bakit ganoon nangyari? Ginago nyo ako eh! But
Capt. Abad told him to keep quiet, not to pose a security risk and that he will be compensated for the job.

Then Capt. Abad called someone in front of him Ochoa, and Ozores. Capt. Abad called Pedro Lim by phone and the witness
overheard Capt. Abad say HelloPeter please Peter Lim Si NonoyO, tapos na then hung the receiver.

3. For witness Reynaldo O. De los Santos alias ENGINE A civilian agent of the 520 Airbase W-2 of the Philippine

Air Force which is headed by Major Gammad with accused Capt. Alfred as second in command. As a civilian agent he
gathered intelligence outside the camp while personally doing his daily chore. Together with other civilian agents he is
brought along by the organic personnel in intelligence operations like surveillance and arresting wanted persons. Reynaldo
De los Santos was granted immunity in exchange for testifying as a state witness.

Reynaldo De los Santos testified that accused Bonifacio Roxas was his fellow agent in the same unit who is very close to Capt.
Abad. All of Bonifacio Roxas request for security detail are issued a corresponding Mission Order by their unit and signed by
Capt. Abad. Bonifacio Roxas was assigned by Capt. Abad as security of Eugene Yu, Patricia Lim-Yu and accused Peter Lim.
Bonifacio Roxas has his own team of civilian agents who are accredited by Capt. Abad.

Reynaldo De los Santos first met Eugene Yu during the latters wedding with Patricia Lim sometime in August or September
1994. He was then one of those detailed by Capt. Abad to secure the occasion because of some threat to disrupt the ceremony.
During the wedding he came to know accused Peter Lim.

Days after the wedding there were three occasions when Reynaldo De los Santos was able to catch Eugene Yu having a
conference with Capt. Abad at the latters office. Reynaldo De los Santos met Eugene Yu again on the day Capt. Abads father
was buried where Eugene Yu asked him if he was the security detail assigned to them and he said no. Moments later Bonifacio
Roxas arrived and escorted Eugene Yu. Reynaldo De los Santos second encounter with Eugene Yu was when he joined the
surveillance team sometime on the second week of October 1994 wherein Atty. Eugene Tan was described as financier ng
pula or an NPA financier. Bonifacio Roxas was the team leader of the operation. The operation also involved the
participation of Sgt. Abalon, Rodolfo Ochoa, Venerando Ozores, Toto Mirasol, Emong Samonte, Danilo Bonifacio, William
Domsao and a certain Abet Tangkad.

Reynaldo De los Santos alleges that the surveillance operation of the NPA financier started in a closed door meeting among
Capt. Abad, Ozores and Roxas inside the office of Maj. Gammad. They were later instructed to tail a light brown Nissan
Patrol, a creamy Mercedes Benz, and a blue Toyota Corolla. And they did so for a month. Two weeks prior to November 14,
1994, Reynaldo De los Santos accompanied Bonifacio Roxas in looking for a telephone as he wanted to talk to Peter Lim and
when Bonifacio Roxas called Peter Lim the latter was apparently giving instructions. After the telephone conversation their
group went to Villamor Air base to talk to Capt. Abad. Thereafter, Bonifacio Roxas brought Reynaldo De los Santos to the
house of Eugene Yu at Taft Avenue near De la Salle University to see Yu where the latter handed to Bonifacio Roxas an
envelope, money and a piece of paper and they left. Bonifacio Roxas gave the money to the two civilian agents assigned at
Eugene Yus house and also gave Reynaldo De los Santos and Ochoa for them to spend. Bonifacio Roxas also showed a piece
of paper which reads Tan Manzano Law OfficePacific Bank Bldg. Ayala, Makati. Bonifacio Roxas said that this is the place
they will be closely working on since the NPA financier was working there.

After that they reported back to the Villamor Air base, went inside the office of Capt. Abad and Bonifacio Roxas handed the
envelope containing money. Capt. Abad took some cash from the envelope and handed them to Bonifacio Roxas. Bonifacio
Roxas gave some money to Reynaldo De los Santos and Ochoa and said it was their bonus.

Reynaldo De los Santos then testified that on November 14, 1994, they railed the NPA financier who was aboard a cream
Mercedes Benz from Makati all the way to Alabang. Reynaldo De los Santos, Mirasol and Roxas were aboard the Datsun car
while Ochoa and Sgt. Abalon were aboard an owner type jeep. After passing the Alabang exit they blocked the Mercedes Benz
and Bonifacio Roxas and handcuff the NPA financier. The driver Constantino was ordered Reynaldo De los Santos to transfer
to the Mercedes Benz transferred to the Datsun. Ozores drove the Mercedes Benz and Sgt. Abalon sat beside the NPA

financier. The NPA financier asked them: Kanino ba kayo nagtratrabaho? nobody answered. Kay Eugene Yu ba? and
introduced himself as Atty. Eugene Tan the former IBP President. Kung magkano ang binayad sa inyo ni Eugene dodoblehin
ko kung magkaka-ayos tayo, hindi naman tayo magkakilala at wala naman ako gagawin para mapahamak kayo Atty. Tan
said. It was then that Reynaldo De los Santos suspected that Atty. Eugene Tan was not the NPA financier who was the subject
of the surveillance.

When they reached Cavite, Bonifacio Roxas transferred Atty. Tan to the Datsun. Ozores told Reynaldo De los Santos to join
Bonifacio Roxas at the Datsun. Somewhere in Silang, Cavite, Roxas told him to drive the Datsun and drive towards Silang,
Cavite. Along the way, Bonifacio Roxas shot Atty. Eugene Tan and Constantino. When Reynaldo De los Santos asked
Bonifacio Roxas why he shot the two when the instruction was only to arrest, Roxas answered Directive ng opisina. After
disposing of the bodies they returned to Villamor Air base and reported to Capt. Abad.

On November 15, 1994 De los Santos met Roxas at the office and asked him kung bakit tinira? and Roxas answered may
nagpatrabaho eh. Sino ba nagpatrabaho sa atin noong kahapon? De los Santos persisted. Roxas answered Kilala mo, si
Eugene Yu pero si Peter and nakipag-usap kay Kapitan.

On November 22, 1994 at about six in the morning Reynaldo De los Santos received a pager message stating Proceed to
Villamor/Wing 2 Office ASAPScorpio. Scorpio was Ozores code name, Reynaldo De los Santos rushed to the office but did
not see Ozores so he proceeded to the house of Capt. Abad where he thought he would see them and there he found Ozores,
Ochoa and Emong Samonte. It was there he learned that Roxas was arrested and that they were all being hunted for the
killing of Atty. Eugene Tan and Constantino. Capt. Abad then ordered them to surrender all the documents, firearms,
MO/MR he issued to them. They stayed in the house of Capt. Abad the whole day and were prevented from going out of the
house by Col. Abelardo Abad, who is Capt. Abads brother.

Reynaldo De los Santos does not know if money changed hands but he does recall that a day or two after the operation inside
the house of Capt. Abad that he was talking to someone over the phone and told him, Ozores and Ochoa that it was Maj.
Gammad who he talked to and Maj. Gammad was asking for a bonus for the successful operation.

4. For witness Rodolfo M. Ochoa alias Rody who is also a civilian agent or operative of the 520 Airbase W-2.
Rodolfo Ochao turned state witness gave his testimony before the Honorable Court and was subjected to cross-examination.

Ochoa testified that he came to know of Peter Lim during the wedding of Eugene Yu and Patricia Lim at a church in
Greenhills sometime in July 1994. He also came to know of Eugene Yu when the latter attended a family planning seminar
prior to his marriage. Armed men were reportedly posting themselves near the site of the seminar. So Capt. Abad
immediately dispatched his operatives to provide security.

The Last Mission Rodolfo Ochoa performed was surveillance on an alleged financier ng pula who he does not know the
identity since it is their SOP that only the team leader, in this case Bonifacio Roxas, who knows the identity of the subject.
Rodolfo Ochoa knows that the surveillance operation had something to do with Eugene Yu because a day or two before the
operation Eugene Yu came to the office of Capt. Abad. They then went to the office of Maj. Gammad and told Rodolfo Ochoa
to fix them coffee. When he went inside the room he heard Eugene Yu tell Capt. Abad. Dapat magconcentrate na iyong mga
bata sa trabaho para matapos na.

About half a week prior to November 14, 1994, Bonifacio Roxas brought Rodolfo Ochoa to the house of Eugene Yu at Taft

Avenue near De la Salle University to see Eugene Yu where the latter handed Bonifacio Roxas an envelope, money and a piece
of paper and they left. Bonifacio Roxas gave the money to the two civilian agents assigned at Eugene Yus house and also gave
money to Rodolfo Ochoa to spend. Bonifacio Roxas also showed a piece of paper which reads Tan Manzano Law Office
Pacific Bank Bldg. Ayala, Makati. Bonifacio Roxas said that this is the place they will be closely working on since the NPA
financier was working there.

A day or two after Eugene Yus meeting with Capt. Abad, the latter ordered all operatives involved in the operation of the
Financier ng Pula to concentrate on this operation. Thereafter Rodolfo Ochoa told Capt. Abad Siguro sir malaking huli ang
gagawin tungkol sa Financier ng Pula kaya kailangan madaliin. Capt. Abad replied Kailangan mahuli agad ninyo iyon
subject sapagkat nangingikil iyan ng mga pamilya ng instsik tulad ni Eugene. Sinong Eugene? Rodolfo Ochoa asked again.
Si Eugene Yu, kilala mo siya di ba? Capt. Abad retorted.

On November 14, 1994, they railed the NPA financier who was aboard a dirty white Mercedes Benz from Makati all the way to
Alabang. Rodolfo Ochoa was driving his owner type jeep with Sgt. Abalon and Ozores as passengers. When they reached
Cavite, Bonifacio Roxas transferred Atty. Tan to the Datsun. Ozores told Reynaldo De los Santos to join Bonifacio Roxas at
the Datsun. Somewhere in Silang, Cavite, Roxas told him to drive the Datsun and drive towards Silang, Cavite. Along the way,
Bonifacio Roxas shot Atty. Eugene Tan and Constantino. After disposing of the bodies they returned to Villamor Air base and
reported to Capt. Abad. He then heard Sgt. Abalon and Capt. Abad arguing. Capt. Abad just told them to keep quiet and not
pose a security risk.

On November 22, 1994, Rodolfo Ochoa proceeded to the house of Capt. Abad where he thought he would see them and there
he found Ozores, Ochoa and Emong Samonte. It was there he learned that Roxas was arrested and that they were all being
hunted for the killing of Atty. Eugene Tan and Constantino. They stayed in the house of Capt. Abad the whole day and were
prevented from going out of the house by Col. Abelardo Abad, who is Capt. Abads brother who told them wag lang isasabit si
Nonoy referring to Capt. Abad. They stayed in the house for the whole day as they were prevented to leave allegedly for
security reasons. Sensing that something may happen to them, they all escaped around 9:00 in the evening without the
knowledge of Capt. Abad.

5. Cynthia Tan, the widow of the late Eugene Tan testified that she and the victim have five (5) children. That the
happiness of the family was cut short by the unjustified killing of her husband. She likewise testified on the anguish and pain
that she and her children suffered; the loss of the monetary support that her husband provides. The loss of the life of the
husband cannot be compensated in terms of money only but the justice of putting behind bars the perpetrators and
conspirators of the crime. She likewise testified on the expenses incurred for the burial of the husband and the earning
capacity of the husband who was a senior partner of the TAN, MANZANO law offices.

6. Eunice Tan the third of the five children likewise narrated how she felt with the loss of her father. Of how the love and
support of their father was snatched by the grisly murder of their father and his driver for which accused must suffer the
consequence.

For EDUARDO CONSTANTINOS part. Defense stipulated on the death of the said victim. They likewise agreed to stipulate
the heirs left by the said victim and the expenses incurred in the burial.

7. Dr. Rosaline O. Cosidon, MEDICO LEGAL, CAMP CRAME testified on the cause, facts and circumstances of death of
EUGENE TAN and EDUARDO CONSTANTINO, both of which are un-rebutted. The identities were duly established.

8. Chief Superintendent Rodolfo Tor on the other hand testified that he was one of the arresting officer of PEDRO
LIM. That Lim was arrested because of the affidavit of Bonifacio Roxas pointing to him as one of the mastermind in the
killing of Atty. Eugene Tan.

Abstracts of the testimonies of the witnesses of the accused.

ACCUSEDS evidence on the other hand consist mostly of alibi and denials. PEDRO LIMS testimony bear no weight as ruled
upon by the late Judge Eleuterio Guerrero when the latter denied the petition for bail. As earlier stated it is mere denials and
alibis. The admission of accused Roxas of his participation in the crime as embodied in his affidavit and the people behind
the murder is a strong proof of conspiracy committed by all of the accused. Except for Roxas, Ozores and Mirasol were not
presented in the witness stand for their defense. Thus the testimonies against them are un-rebutted.

The participation of PEDRO LIM and EUGENE YU in the planning and execution of the crime were vividly testified to by
their cohorts who became state witnesses. Accused brothers Hizon died during the trial, thus were discharged of any personal
liability as accessories to the crime.

Bonifacio V. Roxas Roxas in his statement declared that he is a resident of Victory Reyes, Dasmarias Cavite, who was
employed as driver and security of the accused Pedro Lim. Roxas claims that he was recommended to Pedro Lim by Capt.
Abad sometime in August 1993. Bonifacio Roxas declared that it was Pedro Lims plan to kill Atty. Eugene Tan for a
consideration of P500,000.00. In his extra-judicial confession given on November 22, 1994 at TF Habagat he , thus stated:

In the first week of September 1994, Roxas and Peter Lim agreed for the former to conduct a surveillance of victim Atty.
Eugene Tan and for this purpose he was given by Peter Lim the amount of P2,400.00 weekly allowance and a Datsun car that
he will use in the surveillance mission. Roxas conducted surveillance for more than a month so he was given the allowance
four or five times. Finally on November 14, 1994, he and the other accused carried out their plan to abduct and kill Atty.
Eugene Tan. Bonifacio Roxas identified Sgt. Edgar Abalon, civilian agent Rudy Ochoa, agent Engine and civilian agent
Veneracion among those who carried out the actual abduction of Atty. Eugene Tan and his driver Constantino.

Bonifacio Roxas narrated in detail that on November 14, 1994 at about 9:00 pm accused Rudy Ochoa was driving an owner
jeep with Sgt. Abalon on board and proceeded to bump the Mercedes Benz of Atty. Eugene Tan. Accused Veneracion Ozores
took over the wheels of the Mercedes Benz and then dragged the victims outside the Mercedes Benz and placed them inside
the Datsun car. Between 10:30 to 11:00 pm while they were cruising along the highway of Silang, Cavite, Bonifacio Roxas
confessed that using a .38 caliber provided by Engine who was driving the a Datsun car he shot the victim Atty. Tan once on
the forehead and the victim Constantino on the right side of the head at close range while the two were seated at the back seat
of the Datsun car.

Thereafter, together with Rudy Ochoa, Engine and Toto Mirasol they proceeded to Silang, Cavite, where they buried the
victims in a shallow grave which Mariano Hizon dug earlier for a fee of P500.00. On November 21, 1994, Bonifacio Roxas
drove the Datsun car to Villamor and thereafter took it to the Shell station at the corner of Libertad and Harrison for cleaning.
Bonifacio Roxas tried to collect the P500,000.00 from Lim but the latter told him to wait. After a week he called up accused
Lim twice for the P500,000.00 and to get the salary but was unable to get the money. Bonifacio Roxas stated that if the
money was paid he will divide it evenly among Abalon, Ochoa, Engine, Veneracion and himself. Toto Mirasols share will be
taken cared of.

Memorandum for the Prosecution | eugene a. tan justice for all foundation 02/05/2017, 7)20 PM

Bonifacio Roxas likewise testified that he has no motive to kill Atty. Eugene Tan aside from the money of P500,000.00. That
as far as he knows, Peter Lim and Gilda Lim have a bitter dispute over their properties with Atty. Eugene Tan, who he said is
having an affair with Gilda Lim and who instigated the latter to take over the family business.

PEDRO LIM just adopted his evidence presented during the petition for bail as part of his evidence in chief.

OZORES and MIRASOL did not present anything for their defense except collateral documents consisting of land titles and
other collateral documents completely irrelevant to the case.

EUGENE YU on the other hand presented his secretary and a former employee who testified on the character of Eugene Yu.
Both of which are completely irrelevant and will not suffice to overturn the positive assertion and identification of the
prosecution witnesses. Testimonies of witnesses not presented can not be admitted as part of the evidence.

DISCUSSION

The confessions of the accused, the testimonial and documentary exhibits of the Prosecution and the witnesses who positively
identified and narrated the participation of the accused Pedro Lim, Venerando Ozores, Bonifacio Roxas and Luisito Mirasol
and that of Captain Abad, who in conspiracy with one another clearly committed two counts of murder (except for Yu and
Hizon who were charged as Accomplice and Accessory) for the killing of Atty. Eugene Tan and his driver Eduardo
Constantino.

The accused committed treachery and evident premeditation, taking advantage of their superior strength,
with the aid of armed men or by a band.

From the testimony of the witnesses and admission of other accused it is clear that the murder of the two victims were
qualified with treachery and evident premeditation. Treachery was clearly present because the victims were not given the
opportunity to defend themselves. Accused Bonifacio Roxas had the two victims handcuffed and placed at the back seat of the
car. The act ensured the prosecution of the crime. The victims were defenseless. The suddenness in the shooting of the victims
would clearly show that treachery was present. The Supreme Court in a number of decisions has stated that there is treachery
when:

For treachery to exist, two conditions must be found: (1) that at the time of the attack the victim was not in a position to
defend himself; and (2) the offender consciously adopted the particular means, method or form of attack employed by him.
(People vs. Avendano, 396 SCRA 309)

There is treachery when the offender employs means, methods, or forms in the execution of the crime which tends directly
and specially to insure its execution without risk to himself arising from the defense which the offended party might take.
(People vs. Caloza, Jr., 396 SCRA 329)

Clearly, evident premeditation was obtained in the circumstances. Upon the evidence of the prosecution and accuseds own
admissions they conspired with one another to kill Atty. Eugene Tan and his driver. The digging of the grave by Mariano
Hizon showed that the murder was pre-meditated. The Supreme Court has held that for Evident Premeditation to qualify a
crime the following must be proven:

(a) the time when the offender has determined to commit the crime;

https://eugeneatan.wordpress.com/2011/02/24/memorandum-for-the-prosecution/ Page 12 of 18
Memorandum for the Prosecution | eugene a. tan justice for all foundation 02/05/2017, 7)20 PM

(b) an act manifestly indicating that the offender has clung to his determination;

(c) an interval of time between the determination and the execution of the crime enough to allow him to reflect upon the
consequence of his act. (People vs. Castillano, Sr., 400 SCRA 401).

According to the testimony of the witnesses, they admitted that the accused conducted surveillance operations and observed
Atty. Eugene Tan prior to the November 14, 1994 incident. From the testimony of the witnesses, Eugene Yu and Peter Lim
were already plotting with Capt. Abad and coordinating with the other accused to kill Atty. Eugene Tan. This can be also be
determined from the action of the accused when the Datsun car was provided by Peter Lim and monies given by Eugene Yu
and Peter Lim to the operatives.

When the incident occurred on November 14, 1994 all of the accused waited for the victims to leave the office, followed the
vehicle and even concocted a plan to stop the vehicle of the victims by having the Datsun car driven by Roxas to cut the
vehicle of the victims and then the owner type jeep driven by Ochoa to bump the rear of the vehicle. Accused Roxas let go of
his actual motive when he shouted at Atty. Eugene Tan that putang ina mo alam mo ba malaki atraso mo kay Peter Lim!.
Likewise the fact that the accused even had a burial site prepared in the property of Eugenio Hizon clearly shows that there
was evident premeditation on the part of the accused and they carefully planned the entire operation for more than one
month.

According to the witnesses there were six operatives who conducted the operation on November 14, 2007 and all of them
were armed except for Sgt. Abalon. Roxas acting in concert with his cohorts used their superior strength and their arms in
order to abduct and kill the two victims.

The accused committed the crime of murder qualified by the use of a motor vehicle.

As testified by the witnesses, Peter Lim provided the Datsun car with the owner type jeep which they used in abducting the
victims. Aside from this, the accused used their vehicles as a means to stop the vehicle of Atty. Eugene Tan. After which the
Datsun car was used in abducting the victims where they were also eventually killed. The vehicles were used by the accused in
transporting and killing the victims.

Eugene Yu and Peter Lim committed murder by arranging the killing and kidnapping of Atty. Eugene Tan
for a consideration of price, reward or promise

The Supreme Court has ruled that the person who has received the price or reward or who accepted a promise of price or
reward would not have killed the victim if not for that price, reward or promise. Such person is a principal by direct
participation. The one who gave the price or reward or who made the promise is a principal by induction. When these
circumstances are alleged in the information for murder and proven by the prosecution, accused are guilty as principals by
inducement for the crime of murder (U.S. vs. Alim 38 Phil. 1).

From the testimony of the witnesses and the extra-judicial confessions executed given by the other witnesses, Bonifacio Roxas
and the rest of the operatives were promised a reward by Eugene Yu and Peter Lim. From the testimonies of the prosecution
witnesses and by accused Roxas, vehicle and monies were provided by accused Lim and Yu for the entire operation and also
coordinated with the superior of the accused named as Captain ABAD. Bonifacio Roxas testified that he was ordered to kill
Atty. Eugene Tan for the amount of P500,000.00.

Memorandum for the Prosecution | eugene a. tan justice for all foundation 02/05/2017, 7)20 PM

The accused in conspiracy with one another committed the crime of kidnapping

There is no denying that the plan of the accused was to abduct Atty. Eugene Tan and his driver Constantino.

It has also been proven that the crime of kidnapping also took place since the accused in conspiracy with one another forcibly
abducted Atty. Eugene Tan and Eduardo Constantino with the use of a motor vehicle and fire arms and deprived them of their
liberty for an unspecified length of time and against their will. Furthermore, the kidnapping done by the accused was
qualified because they simulated their public authority as members of the Philippine Air Force. They presented themselves to
the victims as members of the Philippine Air Force and testified that the abduction was part of their surveillance operation on
Atty. Eugene Tan as an alleged financier ng pula. The crime of kidnapping is further qualified because the accused
threatened to kill the victims.

All the accused acted in conspiracy with one another in mutual aid of one another in order to kidnap and
kill Atty. Eugene Tan and his driver Eduardo Constantino

The accused conspiring, confederating and mutually helping one another, did then there willfully, unlawfully and feloniously
abduct Atty. Eugene Tan and his driver and thereafter handcuffed their hands at the back kill them by shooting each one in
the head and buried them in a shallow grave to cover the crime.

Under Article 8 of the Revised Penal Code, there is conspiracy if two or more persons agree to commit a felony and decide to
commit it. Conspiracy must be proven on the same quantum of evidence as the felony subject of the agreement of the parties.
Conspiracy may be proven by direct or circumstantial evidence consisting of acts, words, or conduct of the alleged
conspirators before, during and after the commission of the felony to achieve a common design or purpose. The Supreme
Court has held in the case of Preferred Home Specialties, Inc. vs. Court of Appeals, 478 SCRA 387, 414-415 that:

It is a common design which is the essence of conspiracy. The conspirators may act separately or together by commission on
different manner but always leading to the same unlawful act. The character and effect of a conspiracy are not to be judged by
dismembering it and viewing its separate parts but only by looking at it as a whole. Acts done to give effect to the conspiracy
may be, in fact, wholly innocent acts. Yet, if they are parts of the sum of the acts which are relied upon to effectuate the
conspiracy which the law forbids, they lose that character. Such acts become a public wrong if the result is harmful to the
public or to the individual against whom the concerted action is directed.

Clearly, all the accused acted with one criminal intent and design. They all agreed to conduct an operation to abduct Atty.
Eugene Tan by blocking his vehicle, with the purpose of killing them and to ensure that no resistance will be put up by the
victims handcuffed their hands and thereafter shot both victims in the head. Thus, all the accused clearly committed the
crime of MURDER. In conspiracy, the act of one is the act of all. Overwhelming evidence has been presented to prove
conspiracy. In the case of People vs. Bulan, 459 SCRA 550 held:

If conspiracy is proved, all the conspirators are criminally liable for the crime charged and if proved the act of one is the act
of all.

It can be seen by the Honorable Court during that course of the trial that the prosecutors have sufficiently established that the
accused Pedro Lim and Eugene Yu in consonance with Captain Abad ordered the abduction and murder of Atty. Eugene Tan.
Motive was sufficiently proven as confirmed by the sudden outburst of accused Roxas when he confronted the victim during
the abduction.

Memorandum for the Prosecution | eugene a. tan justice for all foundation 02/05/2017, 7)20 PM

The witnesses presented by the Prosecution are credible enough to warrant the conviction of the accused. Sgt. Abalons
testimony was straightforward. De los Santos and Ochoa, whose qualification to become state witnesses was favorably
decided by the Honorable Supreme Court itself are more damaging for they themselves participated and were present when
they and their colleagues abducted and killed the victims.

While the defense points to some inconsistencies in the testimonies of the other witnesses, as a rule however, inconsistencies
in minor details and collateral matters, does not affect the credibility of the witnesses nor the veracity or weight of their
testimonies (People vs. Santos, 420 SCRA 37).

The Supreme Court has ruled that even one witness is sufficient to convict an accused for murder. The Prosecution has
presented more than five (5) credible witnesses who were subjected to cross-examination questions by the defense counsels of
the accused and all their testimonies prove that all the accused acted in conspiracy with one another to kill Atty. Eugene Tan
and Eduardo Constantino.

The accused are liable for civil damages to the heirs of the victims

The heirs of Atty. Eugene Tan have spent the amount of P450,000.00 as funeral expenses evidenced by the Official Receipt
No. 55493 of the Loyola Memorial Chapels, Inc. (Exhibit K of the Prosecution) and P141,000.00 for the entombment at the
St. Jerome Emiliani & St. Susana Parish as evidenced by Certificate of Payment issued by the St. Jerome Emiliani & St.
Susana Parish (Exhibit L of the Prosecution).

The heirs of Atty. Eugene Tan are also entitled to damages because of the loss of his earning capacity due to his untimely
demise. At the time of his death Atty. Eugene Tan was making at least P1,446,976.75 annually as evidenced by Tan Manzano
& Velez Law Office Statement of Partners Equity (Exhibit J of the Prosecution).

The Honorable Court should also award the heirs of Eduardo Constantino the amount of not less than 300,000.00 or as the
court may deem wise as actual and moral damages.

The Heirs of Atty. Eugene Tan and Eduardo Constantino are also entitled to exemplary and moral damages because of the
violent manner in which the two victims were killed.

PRAYER

WHEREFORE, Prosecution respectfully prays that a Decision be rendered finding the Accused Pedro Lim, Captain Alfred
Abad, Venerando Ozores, Bonifacio Roxas and Luisito Mirasol and Eugene Yu guilty beyond reasonable doubt for the crime
of KIDNAPPING and TWO (2) counts of MURDER for the abduction and killing of Atty. Eugene Tan and Eduardo
Constantino, as penalized under Article 248 of the Revised Penal Code, and be adjudged civilly liable to indemnify the heirs of
their victims.

Other reliefs just and equitable in the premises are likewise prayed for.
