Half-sister of Senator Bong Revilla who was Implicated in the Murder of Her Brother Flown to Turkey

Updates on the Ramgen Revilla Murder Case

According to recent reports, Ramona Bautista Revilla, the sister of murdered Ramgen Revilla, flown to Turkey. She left the country Friday aboard Boeing 747 plane of Cathay Pacific at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) terminal 1. The plane was bound to Hongkong but reports from law enforcement agencies revealed that Ramona Revilla was already in Turkey.

Atty. Dennis Manzanal, the lawyer of Ramona, earlier said that the decision of his client to leave the country is to avoid media persecution. "Flight from media, not from justice. No legal impediment to travel," he told a media outfit.

Ramona Revilla is one of the suspects in the murder of actor Ramgen Revilla, her brother. According to the police investigation, the crime was committed because of siblings rivalry which the family vehemently denies. Authorities already apprehended other suspects involved in the death of Ramgen and frustrated murder of his girlfriend Janelle Manahan who is still recuperating from gunshot wounds. Mahanan is set to undergo another operation this week.

Ramon Joseph “RJ” Bautista, the alleged mastermind, is already at the custody of the authorities. Other suspects also testified that Ramon Joseph and Ramona had a hand in the killing of their brother.

Senator Bong Revilla issued a statement that they will help in finding justice for his murdered half brother. He also asked Ramona to face the investigation and leaving the country could be a sign of guilt.

Since there is no issued arrest warrant for Ramona Bautista Revilla, authorities can't ask for Interpol's help in tracking the whereabouts of Ramona. According to NBI director Magtanggol Gatdula, there are several legal impediments that prevents the agency from pursuing Bautista.

Ramona can't be placed in the Red notice of Interpol because of lack of arrest warrant. The Prosecutor’s Office will conduct its preliminary investigation into the murder and frustrated murder case on November 8. They will determine if there is a probable cause to indict Ramona Revilla.

We will update this post on any development on this murder case involving the son and daughter of former actor and Senator Ramon Revilla Sr.
