Did young helper take doc's P33-T?

An 11-year old girl is being sought by the police in connection with the disappearance of P33,000 in cash owned by a Virac eye doctor.

The report stated that last week, one Sherry Mercader, 30, the private secretary of Dr. Ferdinand Que and a resident of Palnab del Sur, claimed that at about 9 A.M. of November 12, her boss noticed that the P33,000 he had placed inside a travelling bag was missing.

She alleged that the money was believed stolen by Dr. Que's 11-year old helper from barangay Sto. Cristo. She added that the young helper left Que's residence at West Garden Subdivision and allegedly went to Manila with her 22-year old sister.

Police have yet to locate the girl for investigation although reports say she has been seen in the capital town.

In another development, a Virac engineer complained to police probers last Thursday that thieves made off with his gas stove in his San Roque residence.

Roberto Garcia told police that at about 5:30 A.M. of November 16 while his housemaid was about to cook breakfast, she notice to her dismay that their Asahi double-burner gas stove and its gasul tank were missing. He said the perpetrators may have entered his house through an open portion of the dirty kitchen.

In a similar incident, a housewife from barangay Hicming complained that a robber divested her home of much needed cash the other week.

The unidentified suspect reportedly struck at 4 A.M. of November 9 by passing through the ceiling of her house and got the P300 she kept.
