The Supreme Court has found probable cause and reinstated the arrest warrant and hold departure order against Dalia Pastor for the killing of her husband, race car driver Enzo Pastor. In the decision of the 2nd Division promulgated on February 26, 2024, the high court dismissed the ruling of the Court of Appeals that junked the parricide case against Dalia. In 2014, Enzo was on his way to Pampanga with his mechanic and when they came to a stop at the intersection of Visayas Avenue and Congressional Avenue, a man approached their vehicle and fired at Enzo. The prosecution charged Police Officer II Edgar Angel as the gunman and Domingo De Guzman III and Dalia as masterminds in Enzo’s killing.Dalia went to the CA to question the charges filed against her and the court ruled in her favor.However, the Supreme Court found that there was sufficient evidence that identified Dalia as a co-conspirator and her participation in Enzo’s killing.The court cited, among others, the testimony of gun-for-hires that Dalia and De Guzman tried to engage to kill Enzo.It was also Dalia who supposedly handed a picture of Enzo to Alvin Nidua, one of the alleged guns-for-hire. According to Nidua and PO2 Angel, it was Dalia who instructed to gun down Enzo.It was also Dalia who allegedly constantly monitored and called Enzo for his exact location. “Dalia’s acts, as stated above, show that she not only served as a strong motivation to carry out the plan, but she had an active hand in planning the ambush of Enzo,” the court said in the decision penned by Associate Justice Amy Lazaro-Javier.The court also noted the statements of the househelp of the Pastor family on the affair of Dalia and De Guzman.“In the face of several claims involving multiple parties and in light of the atrocious offense resulting in the death of Enzo, the ends of justice are better served by giving the trial court an opportunity to fairly determine the truth through a full-blown trial on the merits,” the court said.<div><iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eNIwKA2jqAY?&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe></div>
