A Singapore court has sentenced overseas Filipino worker Gwen Aguilar to 10 years in prison for the murder and mutilation of her fellow OFW Jane La Puebla last year.
Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) spokesman Gilbert Asuque said Monday that Aguilar, whose sentence took effect September 15 last year, could have her sentence shortened by three years if she shows good behavior.
Asuque said the DFA has informed Aguilar's relatives in the Philippines about the sentencing by the Singapore court.
Aguilar pleaded guilty to the killing of La Puebla, also a maid, whose head and limbs were found stashed inside a sports bag behind a metro station at Orchard Road in Singapore's main shopping district last year.
Aguilar and La Puebla were known to be long-time friends and both also came from Nueva Vizcaya province north of Manila.-GMANews.TV
