APPARENTLY weary of being a punching bag, a policewoman took matters into her own hands and shot her policeman-husband on Sunday night inside their house in Taguig City.
Senior Police Officer 1 Rolando Makabitas, 41, who was assigned to the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group in Camp Crame, Quezon City, died as he was being brought to the hospital, according to Taguig police chief, Senior Supt. Camilo Cascolan.
His wife, PO3 Elizabeth Makabitas, 41, immediately surrendered to authorities after the shooting.
Detailed with the Philippine National Police Health Service, she remains in the custody of the Taguig police who are preparing to charge her with parricide.
Cascolan said the shooting took place on Sunday night at the couple’s home within the Bases Conversion Development Authority compound in Taguig City.
“[Based on] the wife‘s statement, she said her husband had a habit of pistol-whipping and abusing her whenever he came home,†he told the Philippine Daily Inquirer on the phone.
