President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said the investigation into the killing of veteran broadcaster Percy Lapid should continue even though authorities “practically” solved the crime in 17 days. | DYGalvezINQ
“This case was practically solved in 17 days. So I think we can say that the investigating bodies have done a good job. They’ll keep doing a good job until we come to the actual final, conclusion of this investigation,” the President said.
