He was nabbed by virtue of a warrant for murder issued by the Regional Trial Court Branch 4 in Malabon City, with no bail recommended.
In Navotas City, local police also secured a 40-year-old male fisherman tagged as the station’s No. 10 Top Most Wanted Person.
Arrested in Barangay Tangos South for violating Section 15, Article II of Republic Act No. 9165 under a warrant for service of sentence, he is currently detained at the Navotas Custodial Facility.
Additionally, authorities apprehended a 31-year-old female virtual assistant facing an estafa charge with a recommended bail of ₱120,000 issued by a Quezon City court.
