Prosecutors give Lapasan Baptist Church Bishop Dimver Andales 10 days to respond to allegations that he was involved in the May 9 shooting death of Mister Cagayan de Oro 2023 candidate Adrian Rovic Fornillos

Prosecutors have subpoenaed a Baptist bishop linked to the murder of a candidate in the search for Mister Cagayan de Oro early this year.

Regional State Prosecutor Merlynn Barola Uy confirmed on Wednesday, September 6, that a murder complaint had been filed against Lapasan Baptist Church Bishop Dimver Andales and four others.

Andales, an influential preacher closely associated with local politicians, stands accused of masterminding Fornillos’ murder, allegedly due to a love triangle.
