(UPDATE) FOUR police officers allegedly involved in the case of the missing cockfighting enthusiasts (sabungeros) are facing more administrative complaints before the National Police Commission (Napolcom).
Families of at least four missing sabungeros, believed kidnapped and killed by police officers in 2021, filed administrative complaints on Wednesday.
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.
Manguiat, who survived two attempts on his life, said Patidongan told him that the one who ordered his 2021 ambush was Ang.
