Dual national shot - does this count?

[Methersgate]

This was in Rappler just now:

"MANILA, Philippines – A sister of actress Maritoni Fernandez was found dead early Saturday, September 10.

"The Philippine Star reported that Ma. Aurora Moynihan was shot dead around dawn, her body found in the corner of Temple Drive and Giraffe street in Barangay Ugong Norte in Quezon City, according to police officer 3 Anthony Tejerero.

"An Inquirer report says that Quezon City Police District's Guillermo Eleazar said that the victim was the sister of the actress Maritoni Fernandez.

"Moynihan was found with a placard that said, “pusher ng mga celebrities kasunod na kayo (pusher to the celebrities you are next).”

"Manila Bulletin posted a photo of the placard taken by the QCPD PIO on Twitter

"Moynihan's case is undergoing investigation. Her family has yet to issue a statement. "

I believe I am right in saying that the Hon, Aurora Moynihan had dual citizenship. If that is the case, the British government will take no action in the Philippines, but since she was related to a member of the house of Lords who, as a Conservatve MP, was the Secretary of the Conservative Foreign Affairs Committee, HE the British Ambassador may perhaps be asked to file a report into the circumstances of her death.

(I am not saying that she wasn't a user or a pusher, as i didn't know her, and rumour says that she was, but she did hold British citizenship)

Count for what? If I may ask?

Just to move things along on the line I expect you are heading. She was a Philippine national and I presume she was acting in her persona as a Philippine national in the Philippines as a British national would have fewer privileges in the Philippines.

I seriously doubt you could reasonably claim she was a foreigner killed in the war on drugs.

Point taken; none the less, I thought it an interesting development. 

Would you like me to delete this?

I will leave it up to you if you think it belongs in security and laws for foreigners.

. . . Quezon City police chief Guillermo Eleazar said the victim was said to be the sister of British-Filipino movie star Maritoni Fernandez and was suspected of being a supplier of ecstasy and other party drugs to show biz personalities.

The Moynihan girls are the daughters of the late Antony Moynihan, a British baron. Their uncle, Colin Moynihan, is former chairman of the British Olympic Association.

Two witnesses told a Quezon City police investigator they saw a silver Toyota Fortuner pull over at the crime scene at around 1:40 a.m.  A few minutes later, they heard gunshots and saw the car speed off toward White Plains Avenue. They did not take note of the vehicle’s license plate. . .

Seems like a high profile case.  I wonder if Duterte expected or cared that the untouchable higher ups would be included in his death squad crack downs?  This could get interesting.

At this point no one knows who murdered her. Police, drug dealers or Détente's enemy's.

People in or close to show business are involved with drugs? I am shocked, absolutely shocked to find gambling in Ricks Casino!

So, anyone who has a bone to pick could have someone killed and then place a placard on the body that would read " Drug Pusher".

Vigilante or ?

Ed, you seem to miss the fact that this has gone on for a long time, before Duterte. Does the fact that someone may leave a placard now make it worse than before? Oh my God! Someone left a placard! This we must stop!...so we can go back to it happening without placards?

Here in Davao City, bullet riddled bodies with placards  have been found before Duterte was president. This is where the DDS got it's start. Duterte's war on crime began long before he became president. 

Worse than before???  No, not worse nor better. I'm just saying that it could be used as an excuse to have someone murdered, guilty or not guilty.
