A 72-year-old man was found dead inside his home at Phase 4 of the Celine Homes Subdivision in Barangay Estefania, Bacolod City, Saturday afternoon.
Police identified the fatality as Dionesio Bayotas, the husband of an overseas filipino worker (OFW).
Police Station 4 (PS4) investigators said Bayotas’ remains were discovered by his children who had returned from a vacation in Hinigaran.
Bayotas’ remains were already in a state of advanced decomposition when they were discovered and neighbors had been complaining of foul odor several days prior.
When cops interviewed the victim’s family, it was discovered Bayotas had been suffering from hypertension, which may have been the reason for his death.
Authorities added, Bayotas could have been dead for almost four days before the discovery./DGB, WDJ
