CEBU CITY, Philippines – Two men from the mountain barangay of Malubog in Cebu City will be spending Christmas in jail after they were arrested for allegedly raping a minor.
The suspects are considered as the top 2 and 3 most wanted persons in Central Visayas. They were arrested early on Saturday morning, December 11, according to a report from the Investigation and Detective Management Unit of the Cebu City Police Office (IDMU-CCPO).
No bail is recommended for their temporary liberty.
The first suspect, who is now 71-years-old, is wanted for five counts of rape and is the second most wanted person in the region, according to the IDMU report.
