MANILA, Philippines — An independent autopsy by top forensic pathologist Raquel Fortun on the body of Cristito Villamor Palaña, an alleged middleman in the assassination of broadcaster Percival
“Percy Lapid” Mabasa, has bolstered conjectures of foul play in his death at New Bilibid Prison in Muntinlupa City on Oct. 18.
At a press conference on Saturday, Fortun, who was requested by Mabasa’s family to examine Palaña’s remains, made public her findings that the 42-year-old Bilibid inmate had died of asphyxia or suffocation. Fortun performed on Wednesday the second autopsy on the already embalmed body of Palaña six days after it was already examined by the NBI.
Remulla said the discovery of the illegal substance in the man’s urine was another significant result of the autopsy, as it confirmed the drug problem inside the NBP complex.
