NBI-NCR director Edmund Arugay said the charges were filed on behalf of the family of Luis "Luigi" Santiago, 27, director of the horror series Nginiig and SPO2 Merquiodi Bodanio, who was hit in the arm by a bullet while responding to the shooting incident outside a Makati bar last June 8.
Jameiro, 32, engaged in the buy and sell trade, was also held responsible for wounding five other people, mostly bar patrons.
In a two-page affidavit, Jameiro admitted that it was his female companion. Charito Angeles, a resident of Hillsborough Subdivision, Ayala-Alabang, Muntinlupa City, who handed him the handgun, which he used in the shooting.
He said that in the early hours of June 8, he spotted a female friend fighting with another woman outside the Venezia Bar at the Glorietta Mall in Makati City.
As Jameiro tried to break up the fight, a man wearing shorts suddenly approached him and began shouting at him for intervening.
The man then hit him in the face.
Another man joined him and started choking Jameiro.
As he tried to break the hold, both men fell to the ground. It was at this point when other men began kicking him in different parts of the body.
"I was being beaten up. I heard people shouting invectives. I also remember hearing somebody saying, ‘Let’s go, he could already be dead,’" Jameiro said in his affidavit.
He then crawled toward a parked vehicle, where Angeles allegedly handed him a handgun.
"Feeling totally helpless and with only survival on my mind, I got hold of the gun and without malice, instinctively squeezed the trigger… I had no intention of shooting or hurting anybody. My action was propelled by my instinct to survive and to put a stop to the onslaught on my person," he said.
However, Bodanio, the responding officer, claimed the suspect knew what he was doing.
The policeman said he took cover behind a patrol car and saw the suspect take aim at him. "He was sure of himself and he pointed the gun in my direction. He was very angry and it reflected on his face," he said.
The suspect then fled on board a frosted mocha Toyota Hi-Lux pickup truck (XTW-280).
Arugay explained that the case they filed at the Department of Justice would be consolidated with the case earlier filed by the Makati police.
The police station filed one count of homicide, one count direct assault upon a person in authority with attempted homicide and five other counts of attempted homicide against the suspect. Police did not know the suspect’s real name and stated a different address.
The Makati police filed the charges against a male person using the aliases Oliver Castro, Oliver Angeles and Oliver Perez, with address at Hillsborough Subdivision.
Wycoco said that they have coordinated with Armed Forces of the Philippines Chief of Staff Efren Abu regarding their request to invite Major Robert Velasco, whom Jameiro identified as the owner of the Glock 357 he used.
The NBI also summoned to appear at its offices Charito Angeles, 35, who handed the pistol to Jameiro after he was beaten up. The getaway vehicle was also registered to her name.
Metro police chief Director Vidal Querol said they will also pursue an obstruction of justice case against Angeles’ mother Estrella.
"She withheld information that could have helped in the solution of the case, especially when we inquired about who owned the getaway vehicle," he said.
The NBI said that after the shooting incident, Angeles and Jameiro returned the Toyota Hi-Lux to her residence in Hillsborough Subdivision.
She went inside the house to pack her clothes then took a cab with Jameiro to Marikina City. That same morning, they took the next available flight to Singapore, where Jameiro stayed for eight days.
Angeles only stayed for four days before going to the US.
