00:00The motive for the murder of three people in a hotel in Tagaytay City is now clear.
00:05The suspect is a former hotel employee.
00:07We have first live news, James Andrustian, James.
00:14Susan, the police are now considering the murder of three people in a hotel here in Tagaytay City last week
00:22after a former hotel employee committed suicide in Batangas last night.
00:26The motive for the crime is now clear.
00:30The motive for the crime is now clear.
00:33In the barangay of Barangay Toong and Tui Mayor Jay Serado,
00:37the man who was behind the crime committed suicide last night.
00:40The three people, including one Australian, were in a hotel in Tagaytay City last week.
00:46The 31-year-old suspect was turned over to Tagaytay City Police Station.
00:51In July, the Australian was found dead, his wife, and the woman's baby.
00:56The Australian was furious while he wrapped the baby with packing tape and tied the hands and feet of the two female victims.
01:04According to the police, the suspect was a former hotel employee who was a pool attendant
01:09before he confessed about having authority over his identity.
01:13Through showing them the CCTV footages that we got, especially on the road,
01:21especially on the part where we saw his face when his face mask fell down,
01:30that's when some people confirmed to us that this person is their former partner.
01:43The investigation is ongoing and the suspect was removed from his job in March
01:47after he was involved in the incident of theft in one of the hotel rooms.
01:51That was the reason why he asked for a back pay but according to the information we gathered from witnesses,
02:04he was denied by the management.
02:08That's one of the reasons why he asked for a back pay.
02:17He was also part of the group of suspects that he signed at the police station in front of two lawyers.
02:24He entered the hotel through the window in the back using a baton.
02:30He aimed at the people in room 103 and because the window of room 103 was open, that's why he chose to go there.
02:37The police considered the crime as a case closed.
02:40The two female victims' family is hoping that justice will be served to their family.
02:46We are happy because they were caught.
02:49Justice will be served for what happened to them.
02:56I hope you will regret it one day.
03:01Why did you do that? What was running through your mind?
03:05The suspects were not able to get back the stolen goods used by the Australians,
03:09such as watches, shoes, gold rings, and clothes.
03:12The suspect has not been released from the media after he was charged with robbery with multiple homicide.
03:17The local government is also helping the hotel and restaurant associations after the incident.
03:24We have given a lot of strict policies.
03:27It has also become an eye-opener for us.
03:30We have done a lot.
03:37Meanwhile, Susan traveled last night to Sydney, Australia,
03:41while on Saturday, the two female victims will be buried in Baco, Oriental, Mindoro.
