BATANGAS, Philippines  – A 62-year-old leader of a militant group was found dead in Batangas City Sunday, police reported yesterday.

Florencio Romano, believed to be summarily executed, was found along the road in Barangay Soro-Soro at around 6:05 a.m., said Senior Superintendent Omega Jireh Fidel, Batangas police director.

Romano was the organizer of the Organized Labor Association in Line Industries and Agriculture (Olalia) of the Kilusang Mayo Uno.

His body bore several gunshot wounds and was identified by the group.

Hermie Marasigan, chairman of Olalia, expressed belief Romano’s death could be job-related. The group condemned the killing.
