Three bodies were found dumped below a bridge in Sogod town in the Province of Southern Leyte. The bodies were believed to be those of victims of a summary execution.

The victims were found below Dampoy Bridge in Barangay Olisihan at around 3 p.m. on July 3, 2024.

The Southern Leyte Police Provincial Office (SLPPO) said that the three victims are probably between 18 years old and 25 years old. Wire was tied around their neck and packaging tape covered their mouth.

Police believe that the three men were dumped in the area but were killed somewhere else.

Police also said that a person who introduced himself as an informant, from Albuera town in the Province of Leyte, identified the victims. However, police are yet to see the person appear at the station.

As of this writing, the bodies were set for autopsy at the Dodong Amora Funeral Homes in Bontoc town, Southern Leyte.

Police called on to the public who have missing members in the family to contact the SLPPO at 0998-598-6524.
