Teresita "Tet" Antiquera, 45, of Premier Court Subdivision, Barangay Capitol Hills, was discovered lifeless and sprawled on the floor by a relative at around 9:30 p.m. on Saturday.
But police said there was neither forcible entry in the house nor any signs of external injury on the victim, ruling out a possible criminal angle on the incident.
Reports at the Quezon City Police District’s Criminal Investigation Unit (QCPD-CIU) showed that Antiquera was last seen alive by neighbors cleaning her house early Saturday.
Herson Antiquera, a relative of the former movie actress, arrived at around 9:30 p.m. and discovered the body.
Herson immediately sought assistance from neighbors and a certain Dr. Philip Tan volunteered to revive Antiquera.
Police failed to determine the exact cause of Antiquera’s death as her relatives refused to subject her corpse to an autopsy.
