CEBU CITY, Philippines - A wood dealer faces murder charges after he pushed a 15-year old girl off a cliff in Sitio (district) Parian, Barangay (village) San Sebastian, Samboan town, north Cebu last Saturday afternoon.

Senior Police Officer 1 Eneberto Gutana of the Samboan municipal police precinct said they arrested the suspect, Demosthenes Mirasol, at his home in Barangay Inadlay, Santander town on Tuesday morning.

Mirasol was identified by a deaf mute as the one responsible for the death of Myrish May Potil, a fourth-year high school student and resident of Samboan.

Potil's remains were found in an area 10 to 15 meters down a cliff.

The site is 300 meters away from her home.

Police said the witness recounted to them that Potil was on her way home after visiting her classmate's house for a school project.

Mirasol met her along the road at 2 p.m. and tried to rape her.

The victim fought back and the suspect hit her on the head with a rock.

When the suspect saw that she looked dead, he threw her down the cliff.

Samboan medico-legal officer Dr. Teresita Bucado said autopsy results showed the victim sustained a severe head injury.

Gutana said the victim's parents looked for her after she failed to come home that afternoon.

On reaching the site they saw the victim’s slippers and folder that was stained with blood sometime before 10 p.m. that same day.

Mirasol is now detained at the Samboan precinct.(Cebu Daily News)

Lord Jesus, have mercy on the family of the victim. I don't know how to react. Again.

Ibalik nalang ang bitay admin kay nigara na ning mga rapist karun.

i agree to brownman.. ibalik ang bitay

I don't know how to react too, Mike. May her soul rest in peace, and may the killer be punished to the full extent of the law, both heaven and earth.

Why are people becoming so heartless nowadays?  Grabeh naman ni oi!

^Ambot lagi Ms Grazie, daghan naman kaayo mentally ill people in the world oi.

It makes me wonder jud Thyl asa na ilang heart! Such a heinous crime kinahanglan na ni sila jud i punish to the fullest extent of the law of the land. 

Mao gyud, Ms Grazie. Halang ang kaluluwa gyud.

Kabalo ba ka, wa pa ko na ulii sa news dire na a father beat his son to death.  Take note, 2 years old pa ang son.  Way sala tungod lang kay ga away ang kadto na guy sa mother adtong bata.  Di na gud intawon ma itsura ang nawong sa bata.  Hay naku makapanglimbawot ug balhibo how far human being can do!

Oh my! I wonder pud btaw how a person can do that. The only explanation I could come up with is: a person like that is insane. No one in his right mind would do such a thing, di ba, Ms Grazie?

Mao jud kaso lang if we say these people are insane, ma excuse sila.  Grabeh ba sila oi di na lang nila madungog ang hilak sa pagpakaluoy sa ilang mga victims, di na lang na ilang kaugalingong flesh and blood!

Mga naa gyud ay daut nang ilang mga utok kay og tarong pa sila kinsa ba tawn makaako og patay labi na sa mga gagmayng bata nga mga inusente pa tawn og huna2x..Ambot unsaon kaha pagpasaylo ang ingani ka walay puangod nga mga klase sa tawo.

meaning naka drugs jud cla

makaluya maning in ani na balita...really makes me sick
i wish those heartless people would think that they have sisters, mother and even daughters too...

Mao nga kung naa moy na obserbahan nga lain sa usa ka tao, itug-an gyud na sa psychologists or sa proper authority para dili maka angin ug lain nga tao. There is nothing better than prevention and caution.

Bisan inyo nang anak, igsoon, bana or asawa, itug-an gyud na sa proper authorities ug dili ika ulaw.

Kung dunay inyong silingan nga abusive sa iyang anak, dapat itug-an dayon sa DSWD or sa bantay bata. Kung ako makakita ug bata nga gi abosohan sa dakong tao, bahala ug mag karambola akong santa-on kanang tawhana. Akong reason: Kung kahibalo ko sa nahitabo ug wala nako santaa, unya may nahitabo sa bata, I will live with that guilt for the rest of my life being an adult and in the right mind.
