CANNIBAL WEDDING PARTY ARE ARRESTED PDF Print E-mail

A FAMILY killed a relative and cooked him to serve to wedding guests, it was claimed yesterday.

Benjie Ganay was killed because he accidentally touched his cousin the bride's bottom, police said.

Father-of-the-bride Eladio Baule,his son Gerald,another cousin Junnie Buyot and a nephew, Sabtuari Pique, confronted him a few hours later, said senior police Inspector Perla Bacuel.

They then drove him away from the party and roasted his body using coconut leaves and kerosene.

After that, they returned to the wedding party in Palawan province in the Philippines with chunks of his flesh.

Bacuel said Buyot had surrendered to police and was acting as a witness.

He claimed Eladio Baule forced him to take a bite of Ganay's flesh, which he claims he threw up but was then forced at knifepoint by Baule to swallow.

Buyot also told police that when the group returned to the party, they served some of Ganay's cooked remains to guests who were still celebrating the wedding, Bacuel said.

'It was perhaps due to their drunkenness. They probably didn't know what they were eating,' he said.

Buyot reported the incident several days later to a local village leader who took him to police.

Pique also surrendered, and Baule and his son were arrested.

Superintendent Rey Lanada, Palawan provincial police chief, said cannibalism would be treated as an aggravating circumstance in the crime.
