MANILA, Philippines -- (UPDATE 3) An explosion rocked the House of Representatives just minutes after session ended Tuesday evening, killing the driver of Gabriela Representative Luz Ilagan and wounding the solon, Negros Oriental Representative Henry Tevez, and several other persons, National Capital Region Police Director Gearry Barias said.
Barias identified the fatality as Marcial Talbo, whose body was retrieved from inside Ilagan’s car and was identified through his identification card. He said at least four other people were wounded.
Gabriela Representative Liza Maza, said she had seen Ilagan’s car driveway of the south wing of the Batasang Pambansa in Quezon City and next to the vehicle, reportedly the Fortuner sports utility vehicle of Basilan Representative Wahab Akbara, where the explosion happened.
Maza also identified another of the wounded as her driver Mike Lim. She said Ilagan, Lim and Talbo were rushed to the nearby Miguel Malvar Hospital.
National Capital Region Police Office Director Gearry Barias, who was on his way to the Batasan, said Representative Henry Teves and four other persons were wounded while
Maza said representatives who were still inside the Batasan when the explosion occurred have not been allowed to leave.
The Gabriela solon said she and Ilagan had left the session hall together but her colleague went straight to the south wing to leave while she passed by her office.
“I heard a loud explosion and thought at first it was thunder but realized it was too loud to be thunder,” Maza said. “When I looked out my window, I saw a vehicle on fire and near that vehicle was the car of Congresswoman Ilagan.”
She said she immediately sent a member of her staff down to check the situation and was told “there were bodies sprawled throughout the lobby.”
Philippine National Police Director General Avelino Razon has arrived at the scene.
