| Edgar Matobato |
Atty. Salcedo
confirmed that he already filed a case against Edgar Matobato. Matobato by the
way is the prime witness against the case of the controversial “ extra judicial
killings” in the Philippines under Duterte Administration. Matobato even said that he was one of the DDS (Davao
Death Squad) who executed many drug addicts in Davao City in 2009.
Atty. Salcedo points Matobato as the trigger man who
ambushed him by the time he was serving the Regional Adjudicator of the
Department of Agrarian Reform Adjudication Board Region XII. In 2014, Salcedo
stated that Matobato is the killer he has been searching for and it has been 2
years to his big surprise when he saw Matobato on national television
witnessing the case against the killings in the Philippines. Salcedo was shot
thrice in his stomach and in his left shoulder which he said was done by Edgar
Matobato. He even remembered that the statements made by Matobato from his
testimony matched his statements from the senate inquiry that he was asked to
kill him for 400,000 pesos in return.
“Tinuod nga nakafile na kami bago lang nahuman didto sa
Digos City sa kaso nga frustated murder kay wala man ko mamatay. Ang akong
gisumbong si Edgar Matobato,” [It’s true
we already filed a case against Edgar Matobato. Frustated murder for I was not
killed.] Atty. Salcedo confirming the filed case.
