Intruders Ransack Numancia Municipal Hall


An unidentified person or some unidentified persons got inside the ground floor of the Municipal Hall of Numancia sometime on Wednesday night, June 21 or nearly dawn of Thursday, June 22. He or they stayed inside the building ransacking official documents before they exited.
What could be the motive of his or their entry? The suspect or suspects could be an insider or insiders as all the doors he or they passed thru appeared to have been normally opened. There is no indication of any forcible entry. All the doors where he or they passed thru are all in good condition, no damage done whatsoever of all the entrances and exits.
Upon verification, the intruders passed by the back door of the building. There is no damage of that door. According to Mayor Ernesto I. Templonuevo, he holds the key of that door. The other is held by his security. While inside the Mayor’s office, the intruders ransacked all the Mayor’s files, opened his drawers and scattered the sofdrinks bottles. Some coins in a can were left untouched.
From the Mayor’s room, the intruder(s) went to the table of Mr. Josue Maravilla, the Mayor’s secretary. Likewise the intruder(s) opened the table drawers, ransacked his files. From the table of Mr. Maravilla, the intruder(s) entered the Community Livelihood office thru the door. The door was locked but it was nicely opened, no damage found. The table drawers were opened, the files ransacked. Finally, the intruder(s) entered the office of the Municipal Treasurer by nicely opening the door. Nothing was done among the clerk’s tables. The intruder(s) removed one piece of the jealousies of the indoor window, reached for the inside door knob, opened the door and got inside and opened Ms. Solanoy’s table. Like what they did in the other rooms, the intruder(s) opened the table drawers, browsed the office files as if looking for some valuable documents. One of the safety deposit boxes was opened but the second lock remained closed. How did the intruder(s) know the number combination of that safety deposit box?
The motive of the offices intrusions is not yet established. The authorities are in the process of investigation. /MP mailto:madyaas_pen@yahoo.com
