In a tragic incident on May 30, a woman named 'Seling' was brutally hacked to death by her former lover, 'Enit', in Sitio Capion, Barangay San Sebastian, Matag-ob, Leyte. Authorities believe jealousy was the motive behind the attack, which took place around 3:15 p.m. as Seling was traveling home on a motorcycle-for-hire. Enit approached her armed with a long-bladed weapon known locally as a 'sundang', and repeatedly struck her, inflicting severe wounds to her head and neck. The victim died instantly. Police responded promptly after receiving reports of the incident and found Seling's body on the road. Due to the unavailability of local medical personnel, her body was transported to Ormoc District Hospital for examination. Following the attack, police conducted a hot pursuit operation and successfully apprehended Enit in a mountainous area nearby.
