Unless Captain Felipe Valerio is located and returned to the Philippines, government can not re-open the Aquino-Galman case, says Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Lorelei Fajardo.
Valerio, a former officer of the Philippine Airforce, and fifteen other soldiers were convicted in the killing of Aquino and his alleged gunman Roland Galman.
Thirteen of the convicted were pardoned: three died in detention while the rest were released recently. (PIA-MMIO)
