Family of Slain Minglanilla Cop to Receive Financial Assistance from the Cebu Provincial Government

The family of slain Minglanilla cop PO2 Evie Espina will receive P50,000 financial assistance from the Cebu Provincial Government, said Gov. Hilario P. Davide III during the 1st quarter meeting of the Provincial Peace and Order Council this morning.

Davide, who is also the chairman of the Regional Peace and Order Council in Central Visayas, extended his condolences to the family of Espina and commended the policeman for his bravery.

Espina was shot to death by a drug suspect during a buy-bust operation last Monday in Sitio Bacay, Barangay Tulay in Minglanilla.

Sun Shimura, chairman of the committee on public safety, peace and order, said in a text message, that he will endorse his resolution for the cash assistance to the Provincial Board on Monday.
