TUGUEGARAO CITY—Police are looking into the possible involvement of a slain village councilor in Cagayan province in the drug trade as a possible link to his assassination.

Maj. Osmundo Mamanao, police chief of Amulung town, on Friday (Jan. 8) said Ferdinand Javier, 46, of the village of Babayuan, was shot and killed in front of his house by unidentified assailants on Wednesday (Jan. 6).

Javier was on the drug watch list of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency in Amulung, according to Mamanao.

Investigators would also look into business rivalry as another possible motive in the killing of Javier, a rice trader.
