“Sa bisa ng warrant of arrest na aming nakuha ay agaran kong ipinag-utos ang isang malawakang manhunt operation upang madakip ang mga nasabing mastermind sa pagpatay kina Percy Lapid at Villamor ,” CIDG Police Brigadier General Romeo Caramat Jr. said in a statement. He ordered the intensive search on Thursday.
Caramat said he likewise ordered the creation of “tracker teams” that will focus on case build-up and operational research to determine the whereabouts of Bantag and Zulueta. “Ang pagbuo ng tracker teams na ito ay may layong mapabilis at magkaroon ng mas planadong paghahanap at pagtugis sa mga akusado upang masiguradong kahit saang panig ng Pilipinas, mula rito sa Metro Manila hanggang Mindanao ay ma-cover natin sa ating gagawing manhunt operation,” he added.Lapid, who had repeatedly criticized Bantag in his online radio show, was ambushed and killed near his neighborhood in Las Piñas City on October 3, 2022.
Just hours after the press conference held at the Philippine National Police headquarters in Quezon City, Palaña was found dead at NBP.Subscribe to our daily newsletter
