Philippine Daily Inquirer, 02/26/2010
The body of an unidentified street gang member, believed to be a victim of summary execution, was found Friday morning stuffed into a sack and dumped in the Pasig River in Manila.
Manila Police District homicide section investigators described the man to be between 45 and 55 years old, 5-foot-7 inches tall, fair-skinned, of medium build and with several front teeth missing. He wore a green t-shirt, black short pants and bore the Commando gang tattoo on his body.
The Commando gang is usually composed of members who have been charged with crimes and have been jailed.
The corpse, which was stuffed head first into a violet rice sack, was found with a towel and brown packaging tape wrapped around the head, steel wire lopped around the neck and feet, and hands bound with plastic straw.

PO2 Gerry Amores of the MPD homicide section said the body was fished out of the portion of the Pasig River along Muelle del Industria Street, Barangay 282 Zone 26, in Binondo at around 6:40 a.m.
Amores said the floating sack, with the feet of the victim jutting out, was first spotted by a concerned citizen who immediately informed SPO3 Reynaldo San Andres of the Lawton outpost of the MPD Ermita station 5.
