Enzo Pastor’s kin seeks DILG, DOJ help in locating racer's wife accused of parricide

The family of slain international racing champion Enzo Pastor on Friday appealed to the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) for help in locating Pastor’s wife, Dalia, who is accused of killing her husband in 2014.

In a statement, Tomas and Remedios Pastor said they received credible reports that Dalia fled the Philippines in 2015 and assumed a new identity.

“With this, we humbly and urgently appeal to the DOJ, to the DILG, and to Secretary Benhur Abalos, to extend their assistance in locating and capturing Dalia,” they said.

The family issued the statement a day after the Supreme Court reinstated the arrest warrant and hold departure order against Dalia. 

Enzo was shot dead at the intersection of Visayas Avenue and Congressional Avenue in June 2014.

“It has been ten long and painful years since Enzo’s tragic death, and not a day goes by that we don’t grieve his loss,” the family said.

They also asked the public to help in locating Dalia.

“If anyone has any information about Dalia’s whereabouts, we ask that you come forward and inform the proper authorities,” they said.

“Your assistance could be key in helping our family finally attain the justice that Enzo—and all those who loved him—deserve,” they said,” they added.

Prosecutors charged Dalia, self-confessed gunman and Police Officer II Edgar Angel, and Domingo de Guzman III as the masterminds in the killing. The SC said Angel and De Guzman were arrested, while Dalia remained at large.
