BONTOC, Mountain Province -- The Sarah Becyagen murder case took a twist when two detained suspects were released upon withdrawal of the information filed at the Prosecutor’s office of the Department of Justice here.

This was upon request of the father of murder victim Becyagen, who said case is undergoing investigation by the National Bureau of Investigation.

Judge Joseph Patnaan of the Regional Trial Court here said that the case may be refiled for the conduct of a preliminary investigation upon the gathering of additional evidence.

Becyagen, 22, was found dead near the Mountain Province General Comprehensive High School gate leading to Samoki bridge Sept. 11, 2012.

Becyagen sustained injuries at her right abdomen, swollen lips, hematoma and injuries on knees and legs, and died due to asphixia by strangulation medical reports say.

Meantime, the Florencia Kayohan case has not moved with no progress as to why the victim was killed and who killed her.

Police said no lead was forwarded to further investigation. The 22 year old Kayohan was found dead with a puncture on her neck and injuries on her head January 3 along the Chico river banks at Upper Caluttit here in this capital town.
