TUGUEGARAO CITY, Cagayan -- A 52-year-old married man stabbed dead the 22-year-old niece he was courting.

Investigators found that his niece, Rica Villanueva, reported her uncle’s sexual advances and filed a complaint before the council of Barangay Mungo, Tuao town in Cagayan last Monday. 

This allegedly led to a quarrel between the suspect, Rommel Payumo, and his wife.

The fuming Payumo then reportedly barged into Villanueva’s house and stabbed her several times at around 3:50 p.m. 

Villanueva died on the spot as Payumo fled on a motorcycle.
