Amid tight security and ambulances on standby, the families of two of three Filipinos executed in China for drug trafficking arrived at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) late Wednesday, but without the remains of their loved ones, TV journalist JP Soriano reported on GMA News' "Saksi."
As of this posting, the Ordinario and Credo families had just deplaned from China Southern Airlines flight 377, GMA News reported. Jason Ordinario said that the remains of Sally Ordinario-Villanueva and Ramon Credo were still in China and would take five to seven more days before they could be shipped back to the Philippines. Department of Foreign Affairs and Overseas Workers Welfare Administration teams were on hand at the NAIA Terminal 1 to assist the arriving families, according to radio dzBB in a separate report.- JV/VS, GMA News
