Reyes said ‘sorry’ — eyewitness


MANILA, Philippines — “Sorry” was the last word that former Defense Secretary Angelo Reyes uttered when he committed suicide Tuesday morning in front of the grave of her mother at the Loyola Memorial Park in Marikina City.

This was according to a Radyo Inquirer interview with Feliciano Recorba, a contractual maintenance staff at the Loyala Memorial Park, who rushed to help Reyes upon hearing a gunshot.

“Ang narinig ko po na sinabi niya ay sorry, palagay ko po ay para sa anak [I heard him say sorry, perhaps to his son],” Recorba told Radyo Inquirer. (report from Don Lejano, DZIQ-Radyo Inquirer)
