1. Q. How are you related to the victim?
A. I am the sister of Rabiya C. Nablo, killed last November 16, 2021.

A. On November 15,2021 at about 9:00 PM of in the evening, my sister
Rabiya informed me that she is going to hang out with her friend Samar
Mohamed B. Bandoukji at a bar in downtown Catbalogan. Because I know
Samar, her best friend, it did not cross my mind that something wrong will
happen to her and beside she is used to sleeping over at their house when
it’s already late for her to go home at night.
3. Q. How did you find out what happened to your sister?
A. At around 5:00 AM, an unknown number called me which happened to be
a police officer and informed me that my sister was rushed to Catbalogan
Doctors Hospital and was found lifeless at Diversion Road in Brgy.
Canlapwas, Catbalogan City. I immediately went to the hospital and there
the doctor informed me that my sister was declared dead on arrival. The
Death Certificate which is attached and made integral hereof as “Annex
A”.
4. Q. What happened to your sister?
A. The investigator told me that apparently my sister was already dead for
about 2– 3 hours and that a witness has reported the incident to the
police station.
5. Q. Do you have any suspect in mind?
A. At first I didn’t know who it could be but upon hearing the police report
and statement of the witness, my sister was stabbed by a certain
Reymond Cadiz. Police Spot Report is attached as Annex “B” and made an
integral part thereto. The attending Physician certified that the cause of
death is Hypovolemic Shock secondary to multiple stab wound.
B. Q. Do you know who the witness is?
A. Yes, Sherrydale Queen H. Uy, a balut vendor.
C. What did she tell you and the investigators?
A. She told us me that she saw everything that happened. That the killer
escaped after stabbing my sister multiple times. She revealed to us that

her neighbor. Also, Samar Mohamed B. Bandoukji, my sister’s best friend
told us that Reymond was with them the night before my sister was killed
and that he was the last person seen with Rabiya.
I am therefore executing this affidavit freely and voluntarily in support of my intent

Diversion Road after selling my balut products, I heard a loud voice of a male
and a female crying for help. I was intrigued so I went closer to the spot where
the voices were coming from, and I was shocked when I witnessed the female
being stabbed by the male. Because of fear for my own life I immediately hid
behind a tree and kept quiet.
2. Q. What did you see?
A. I have seen from where I was hiding that after stabbing the female, the male
tried to hide the body of the female and when he was about to leave I was
surprised because when he looked around before leaving I recognized his face.
He is Reymond A. Cadiz alias “Monmon”, my neighbor.
