BAGUIO CITY – A 40-year old wielder died after he reportedly committed suicide by hanging himself inside his rented room at Purok 5, Dominican-Mirador, here, Thursday.
Police authorities identified the fatality as Mauro Parado De Leon, single, 40, Welder and a resident of Purok 5, Dominican Extension, Baguio City.
Initial police investigation showed that the victim’s son went to see his father in his rented room when he was forced to pass by the veranda because he had no key to the room but he was surprised to see the lifeless body of his father lying on the floor with an electrical cord looped around his neck.
The victim and his wife had an alleged altercation more than a week ago that prompted the latter not to go home for quite sometime.
Responding elements of the Scene of the Crime Operation (SOCO) team informed his family members that he could have died 3 to 4 days ago prior to his lifeless body being discovered inside his room.
