SPO3 Ritchell Sala Tejano and PO3 Romeo Borinaga Batuhan could
not immediately confirm whether the misunderstanding between the
mayor and Dumpit was about the November 2017 killing of Ermita,
Cebu City barangay captain Felicisimo Rupinta, about which
Osmena was suspected to have masterminded.
The city mayor and wife Margarita, who kept him as police escort
and bodyguard alongside Tejano and Batuhan for many years, held
second thoughts about indeterminate emotional outbursts that
would affect the family home in Guadalupe, according to members
of the Osmena household staff.
The gunmen who carried the attack fled to Bohol, where they were
tracked down and killed allegedly by Dumpit.
The mayor gave him financial allowances to help him make both
ends meet as a breadwinner for two families: Josephine Gabuya’s
in Cebu City, with whom he had a son, and Ella Amores in
Tagbilaran who sired him three children.
