Police seek protection for 12 witnesses
This will secure them from threats and intimidation, said Senior Supt. Patrocinio Comendador Jr., spokesman of Task Force Ellah Joy.
He said police will also coordinate with the DOJ to prepare grounds to support its request for the court to issue a hold departure order against the main suspects, Bella Ruby Santos and her British boyfriend, Ian Charles Griffiths.
Comendador said the task force would coordinate with the International Police to locate Griffiths, who left for Singapore last Feb. 28. Only Santos returned to Cebu.
Last Thursday, the police task force showed PowerPoint slides of how they conducted the investigation that led to the filing of charges against the couple.
Comendador showed step by step how they were able to identify the suspects through witnesses, before, during and after the Feb. 8 kidnapping, including the dumping of Ellah Joy’s body off a cliff in Barili town.

this seems to me the same kind of stupid attempt, like the filig against berger and esdrelon…only these two are not that lucky in behalf of alibi and their whereabouts having been at home… the way the witnesses performed in court tells you everything….
the first partial number is abandonedand it would interest me, how these early witnesses could have been so wrong…. , witnesses who were not existing before suddenly appear… the DNA test results were never even mentioned and not included in the filing, because they are most likely exculpatory…. early in the case the foreigner was allegedly tattooed, now not anymore….
all i see is contradicting…. however like erson dgal before, it seems to me, that the new team is blind as well….
i would suggest to send th entire investigative team back to police academy….
