The discovery has sent shockwaves through the local community, as evidence at the scene suggests a violent struggle occurred before the victim’s life was taken.
The young victim, whose identity is being withheld due to her age, was discovered in a state of undress within the vast agricultural lands of Polomolok.

While an official autopsy is pending to confirm the exact cause of death and whether s3xual assault occurred, investigators are meticulously processing the site.
Among the physical evidence recovered was a lip tint belonging to the victim, which was found near her remains.
The Polomolok Municipal Police Station has already identified and detained two "persons of interest" (POIs) in connection with the crime.
The first suspect was reportedly seen with the victim as recently as Wednesday. Witnesses noted that the man was wearing a specific jersey during their encounter—a garment that matches a piece of clothing recovered by forensics at the crime scene.
A second person of interest is also under tight guard. Authorities noted that this individual possesses several unexplained scratches and wounds on his body, which investigators believe could be defensive marks sustained during a struggle with the victim.
As the investigation deepens, the local government and police are calling for witnesses to come forward.
The brutal nature of the crime, particularly involving a minor in a quiet agricultural area, has prompted calls for swifter justice and increased security patrols in the outskirts of the town.
Police are currently awaiting the results of the DNA and forensic examinations to officially link the physical evidence and the detained suspects to the killing.
In other news, the Navotas City police successfully apprehended a trio of suspects after video surveillance caught them in the act of dismantling and removing power lines valued at approximately P13,000. The footage revealed a calculated effort where one individual scaled a utility pole to sever the wires while his accomplices monitored the surroundings for law enforcement. Following the theft, barangay officials tracked the missing utility materials to a local salvage yard in Malabon, which led to the identification and arrest of the suspects. In response to the incident, local leaders are launching an initiative to display emergency hotlines on utility posts to encourage residents to report suspicious activity immediately.
Still in other news, an Elf truck driver tragically lost his life on Thursday after his vehicle slammed into the rear of a heavy dump truck along Jose Abad Santos Avenue (JASA) in Lubao, Pampanga. Investigation of CCTV footage showed that the dump truck had decelerated to a full stop to yield to crossing traffic, but the following vehicle failed to engage its brakes in time. Police Lt. Col. Dederick Relativo confirmed that while the driver was declared dead at the hospital, a passenger in the Elf truck survived the impact and is currently undergoing medical treatment. The tragedy has prompted local authorities to issue a stern warning to motorists regarding the importance of maintaining a "stopping distance" on high-speed thoroughfares frequented by heavy industrial vehicles.
