The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) located Cabrera’s body on Friday, following leads provided by the three suspects apprehended in connection with his murder and robbery.
Discovery of Remains and Suspect Surrender

Further investigation, including CCTV footage retrieved by the NBI, showed two of the suspects exiting the stolen vehicle in Valenzuela City on the same afternoon.

Cabrera’s family had expressed a profound desire to locate his body to ensure a proper burial. A team from the NBI is currently escorting Cabrera’s wife to formally identify the remains. “It is important that this is identified first. we may be led by the suspects to another set of remains,” stated an NBI official, emphasizing the critical nature of the identification process.
While the recovery of Cabrera’s body marks a significant step, officials are clear that the case is far from closed. “We do not close cases. We solve cases at the NBI,” an NBI representative affirmed, underscoring their commitment to a thorough and complete resolution.
The investigation continues as authorities work to piece together the full sequence of events and ensure justice for Raymond Cabrera and his grieving family.
