One of the complainants identified the police officers. The four are among the 12 police officers administratively charged for their supposed involvement in the men’s disappearance.
The four were identified as LtCol. Ryan Jay Eliab Orapa (Highway Patrol Group); Maj. Mark Philip Simborio Almedilla (Cavite HPG); Staff Master Sgt. Mark Anthony Aguilo Manrique (HPG); and Staff Sgt. Edmon Hernandez Muñoz.
Whistleblower Julie “Dondon” Patidongan, alias Totoy, earlier claimed that the policemen were paid by gaming tycoon Charlie “Atong” Ang. Ang has denied involvement in the case.
In a Manila Times exclusive interview, Calamba City Councilor Arvin Manguiat said he knew the names tagged by Patidongan in the administrative complaint.
