The House of Representatives ordered the arrest and detention of former presidential adviser Michael Yang, also known as Hong Ming Yang, in connection with his alleged involvement in a P3.6-billion drug bust in Mexico, Pampanga last year.
Yang, an adviser to former President Rodrigo Duterte, was linked to an incorporator of Empire 999 Realty Corp., which owns the warehouse in Mexico town where the P3.6 billion worth of shabu was seized. Yang was invited to the hearing after Lincoln Ong, a Pharmally official and an alleged associate of Yang, was found to be an incorporator of a company with links to Empire 999 and other firms.
Surigao del Sur Rep. Johnny Pimentel told Roque during the hearing that his name has been dragged in at least two recent cases involving suspected POGO operators.
