Police said Doyel had been staying alone in the room located in Barangay Calamba, where he had reportedly been living for nearly two years.
As of Tuesday, December 30, authorities said they were still in the process of reaching out to Doyel’s family abroad.
Police noted that coordination with the victim’s relatives is necessary to formally inform them of the incident and to determine arrangements following his death.
Initial findings from the investigation revealed that Doyel worked as a home-based call center agent while residing in Cebu City.
Investigators also disclosed that he had been dealing with several health-related concerns prior to his death. In addition, police said the victim was known in the area to regularly consume alcoholic beverages.
Based on the condition of the body and other indicators at the scene, authorities believe that Doyel may have died two to three days before he was discovered.
No immediate signs of foul play were reported, though standard procedures were followed during the scene examination.
Police said further verification is ongoing as part of the routine investigation. Updates are expected once coordination with the victim’s family is completed and additional details are confirmed.
In a previous local report by KAMI, a family composed of three members was brutally gunned down inside their store in Barangay Mallorca, San Leonardo, Nueva Ecija. CCTV footage captured three men entering the establishment, pulling down the roll-up door, and then shooting the entire family until they were killed. Before escaping, one of the suspects was seen taking a bag and a cellphone owned by the victims. According to Gary De Leon of TV5 Frontline Pilipinas, the family had begun receiving threats after they lent P1 million to a barangay resident, who allegedly used the money to fund a business.
In a separate local incident that also went viral, a 51-year-old public school teacher in Las Piñas City was stabbed multiple times by her husband. Based on the report of EJ Gomez on Unang Balita, the crime took place inside the school’s faculty room. Police said a security guard was stationed at the school, but the suspect, being a familiar figure, was able to enter and leave the premises without difficulty. The 38-year-old suspect claimed he went to the school to speak with his wife and resolve their problems, but the encounter reportedly escalated into a serious argument that led to the stabbing.
