Crime of passion: Jealousy drives man to kill ex-lover in Caloocan

Too much love will kill you.

This iconic line from a popular song of the same name, Too Much Love Will Kill You, proved to be true after a man allegedly stabbed to death his former live-in partner in Caloocan City due to jealousy.

Reyand Pude, 22, was arrested in a follow-up operation in Tanza, Cavite on Friday, Aug. 16, two days after he allegedly killed Marian Angeline Manaois, 22, in front of a restaurant in Barangay 85, Bagong Barrio, Caloocan City.

Police Maj. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr., regional director of the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO), presented Pude to the public and confirmed that jealousy was the motive behind the crime.

According to police investigation, Pude and Manaois had been living together for two months when the victim demanded that they separate. 

Pude accused Manaois of having a new lover, which the victim denied, so he forcibly took her wallet and cellphone to prevent her from leaving their love nest. However, Manaois still left and went back to her parent’s home.

Eager to retrieve her wallet and cellphone, Manaois agreed to meet Pude but she had no idea about her ex-live-in partner’s plans.

Manaois was waiting for Pude in front of a restaurant along Loreto Street around 7:20 p.m. on Aug. 14 when a man in hooded jacket suddenly struck her with a knife on the side of her body. 

The victim tried to stand up after falling down on the pavement but the suspect came back and swung multiple times. The suspect fled on foot towards EDSA northbound heading to Quezon City as he disposed the knife on the roadside.

The incident was caught in a CCTV footage and it was later confirmed that the man was Pude.

Manaois was brought to the MCU hospital where she died as proclaimed by an attending doctor.

Meanwhile, the suspect is currently in custody of the Caloocan City Police Station while necessary documents for inquest proceeding are being prepared before the duty prosecutor of Caloocan.

“My deepest sympathies go out to the family of the victim. While no action can undo the pain of this loss, I want them to know that we are fully committed to securing justice in her name,” Nartatez said.

“As we move forward, I want the public to know that the NCRPO remains resolute in its mission to maintain peace and order across the region. We will continue to act with diligence and integrity in safeguarding the well-being of our communities,” he added.
