Malacañang confirmed on Monday the resignation of Napolcom commissioner Edilberto Leonardo, who was linked to the murder of former PCSO board secretary Wesley Barayuga.

In a message, Presidential Communications Office Acting Secretary Cesar Chavez confirmed that President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. had accepted Leonardo’s resignation.

On October 8, 2024, Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin formally accepted Leonardo’s resignation on the President’s behalf, effective immediately.

Leonardo tendered his resignation on Oct. 4, 2024 but no reasons for his resignation were disclosed in the letter.

Leonardo was implicated in two high-profile murder cases following allegations made by Police Lt. Col. Santie Mendoza who testified that Leonardo and former PCSO general manager Royina Garma conspired in Barayuga’s killing during a House quad committee hearing.

He was also accused of orchestrating the deaths of three Chinese drug convicts inside the Davao Prison and Penal Farm in 2016.

Leonardo denied both allegations but was cited in contempt by the House quad committee for denying that he had met former Davao penal farm warden Gerardo Padilla about the killing of Chinese inmates.
