Reward up to P2.5 M for Dutch missionary’s killers

CAMP OLIVAS, Pampanga  – The reward for information that could lead to the arrest of the killers of Dutch missionary Wilhemus JJ Lutz Geertman has been raised to P2.5 million. 

Senior Supt. Edgardo Tinio, Pampanga police provincial director, said four more businessmen in this province have offered P500,000 each for the early solution of Geertman’s case. 

           

Tinio said a businessman offered the initial P500,000 reward lastweek. 

           

“We hope that informants would be interested in P2.5 million,” he said.

           

The Special Investigation Task Group Geertman is still hunting down one of the killers positively identified by a witness. 

           

The witness said the gunman also pointed a handgun at him before fleeing. 

           

Geertman was gunned down near the Alay Bahay Inc. office at the L & S Subdivision in Barangay Telebastaga in San Fernando town last July 3. 

           

The victim, together with two companions, had just withdrawn P1.2 million from a bank in Angeles when gunned down.
