The man who was being accused of ending the life of another motorist after a traffic argument appealed to the public to stop judging him based on the reports about him.
In an interview, the suspect, Gerrard Raymund Yu, insisted that he was a kind man.
“Mabuti po tayong tao, hindi po tayo masama… Nakikiusap lang po ako sa mga tao ng ‘wag naman po husgahan tayo,” he said.
He made the statement despite the investigators’ findings, which could strongly link Yu to what happened to the motorist Aniceto Mateo.
Even one of the witnesses positively identified Yu.
Yu, a Pasig City-based businessman, was driving a Mercedes Benz car when the confrontation between him and Mateo happened.
The suspect’s vehicle was registered under Yu’s name, and he even noticed that he had changed the car’s plate number after the incident.
When asked about the evidence against him, Yu refused to talk and referred the reporters to his lawyer.
Meanwhile, the family of the victim said that they would never accept any settlement offer from Yu.
