Tension escalates over Abra killings

TENSION is building up in Abra following the spate of killings in the province the past two months prompting the police to heighten measures to neutralize what they call election related crimes.

Abra police director Senior Supt. Antonio Bartolome said they have put in place preventive actions to avert escalation of crime incidents as investigation is hastened on the two recent ambuscades that happened in a span of four days.
