(MENAFN) The Philippines police chief has apologised over the kidnap and murder of a South Korean businessman by officers at the national police HQ.
In detail, Jee Ick-joo was seized in October from his home in Angeles city, near Manila, under the pretence of a drug raid, the Department of Justice said.
After strangling him, his killers pretended he was still alive in order to collect a ransom from his family.
His body was later incinerated at a crematorium run by a former policeman.
