MANILA, Philippines — The resolution on the administrative case of Staff Sergeant Jonel Nuezca on the fatal shooting of a woman and her son in Tarlac province may be out by Monday next week, January 11, according to Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Gen. Debold Sinas.

“The IAS who handles the case niya (Nuezca) promised to finish the case at the end of this week so we’ll have the resolution by Monday,” Sinas said in a press briefing on Monday.
He added that Brig. Gen. Vicente Danao Jr., chief of the National Capital Region Police Office, will be the one to decide if he will abide by the recommendation of the IAS regarding the case of Nuezca, who was assigned at the Parañaque City Police Crime Laboratory.
