The Commission on Elections (Comelec) reminded candidates to post their campaign paraphernalia such as tarpaulin banners and posters in designated common poster areas.
Comelec Resolution No. 8758 provides that campaign materials posted outside the common poster areas as well as those considered as illegal campaign materials that are displayed would be torn down.

prov’l prosecutor’s office
By Francis Allan L. Angelo
A SON of Mayor Carlos Cabangal of Banate, Iloilo shot to death a businessman last year, according to Iloilo Gov. Niel Tupas Sr.
In an interview with Iloilo City Councilor Perla Zulueta, host of cable TV talk show Serbisyo Publiko, last Sunday, Tupas said Mayor Cabangal told him that it was one of his sons who shot Carmelino Bachoco on December 25, 2009.
“He admitted that his son shot the victim. But we leave the case to the courts,” said Tupas, who is a political ally of Mayor Cabangal.
