TALON PIKIT – A newly elected official, Magtanggol Liberacion, was found dead at a dumpsite early this morning. According to the authorities, multiple stabs were found to be the cause of death. Until now, the killer has not yet been identified. Rumors escalating around the town point to the previous mayor who filed for an electoral fraud against Liberacion. Could it be a political-related matter or just a personal vendetta? Is the killer one of the townspeople of Talon Pikit or a political rival?
In line with the upcoming National Election, DLSU Harlequin Theatre Guild will be launching its tour of “Magtanggol Liberacion!” on July 2015 at the Cultural Center of the Philippines.
