Two Australians and their Filipina companion have been found dead, with their hands and feet tied, inside a hotel in a popular resort city.
Two Australian nationals and their Filipina companion were killed in a hotel in a popular resort city south of the Philippine capital and police were trying to identify and track down the suspects, officials said.
A man, who police identified as a suspect, walks along a hallway before entering a room at the hotel.Investigators were interviewing witnesses and examining security cameras at the hotel, including one footage that showed a man wearing a mask and a hoodie and carrying a sling bag who walked out of the victims’ room a few hours before their bodies were discovered, Capagcuan said.
“We were shocked by this incident,” Tagaytay Mayor Abraham Tolentino said, apologising to the families of the victims. “We’re very sorry to our Australian friends. We will resolve this as soon as possible.” A Filipino relative of the Australian woman said that the Australian couple flew from Sydney to the Indonesian resort island of Bali for a vacation then headed to the Philippines on Monday to visit her two children from a previous marriage in the country.
