MANILA – The Philippines is seeking an extension to save a Filipino facing execution in Saudi Arabia as the deadline to save his life passed, the foreign department said on Sunday. Filipino laborer Joselito Zapanta was given until Nov. 3 to raise more than $1 million to pay the family of his Sudanese landlord, who he killed in a rental dispute in 2009. The Philippines hopes to extend the payment deadline, foreign department spokesman Raul Hernandez said.
