It was also discovered that the alleged murderer killed his boss to prevent him from paying the tens of thousands of dollars he stole from the deceased, which he promised to pay back in installment, even though the late Gokada boss did not inform the police about the theft.

Haspil however decided to go for the broke by killing his boss to cover up the theft, the police said, adding that the suspect also used the deceased credit cart to pay for cleaning equipment to sanitize the crime scene.

The police has charged Haspil for second degree murder, as investigators are working on the possibility that the killer used a taser to paralyze Saleh before stabbing him after following him to his apartment dressed in a black three-piece suit.
