Newly sworn-in Department of Public Safety Commissioner Robert A. Guerrero said police officers will continue to pursue investigations into the unsolved homicides and cases of missing persons. <\/p>\n
In an interview, Guerrero said officers are continuously looking into the unsolved homicides. <\/p>\n
The commissioner said police officers likewise will not stop investigating cases of missing persons on Saipan as well as other unsolved crimes. <\/p>\n
Guerrero did not elaborate on DPS\u2019 operations.<\/p>\n
On Nov. 3, 2014, over 150 Chinese farmers and owners of various businesses came out in a long vehicule convoy to express their anger and frustration over three cases of double homicides and other unsolved murders involving Chinese nationals on Saipan.<\/p>\n
Two other unsolved murders last year also involved locals. <\/p>\n
James Patrick Deleon Guerrero, a security guard, was fatally shot by a masked man during an attempted robbery at Royal Poker in Afetnas, just a day after police discovered that Ana Maria Limes was killed in her house in Oleai.<\/p>\n
The killer of Deleon Guerrero has yet to be identified. <\/p>\n
Sylvester Rogopes Sablan, the husband of Limes tagged as the person of interest in Limes\u2019 murder, has yet to be charged in this case. <\/p>\n
On missing person cases, this May marks the fifth year of the mysterious disappearance of Faloma and Maleina Luhk near a public school bus pavilion in As Teo. <\/p>\n
In June 2014, Japanese sisters Natsuki and Chinatsu Yamada disappeared. Their rental car was found abandoned at Wing Beach in Marpi.<\/p>\n
Among other missing persons is Mei Hua Zhao, a 25-year-old scuba diver instructor who was reported missing since October 2015.<\/p>\n
On illegal drugs, Guerrero said his predecessor, James C. Deleon Guerrero, declared a war on \u201cice\u201d and that under declaration is still on under his administration.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will continue to work with other agencies in combating drugs most importantly the \u201cice\u201d issue,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
The commissioner said they will work collaboratively with the war on \u201cice\u201d task force that was formed by Gov. Ralph DLG. Torres. <\/p>\n
\u201cAll law enforcement agencies will work together to battle this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
