The disappearance of Ricardo Lasco of San Pablo City in Laguna is among a series of 'missing person' cases related to the highly lucrative online sabong gaming.
MANILA, Philippines – The Department of Justice is set to file charges of robbery and kidnapping against three police officers involved in the case of a missing sabungero in Laguna last August 2021.
It was the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group’s Special Investigation Task Group Sabungero, dubbed “CIDG SITG Sabungero,” which cracked the case open and identified members of the Philippine National Police as possibly involved in the case of missing “sabungeros”. The complainants said the armed men claimed to be operatives of the National Bureau of Investigation and were arresting Lasco allegedly for the crime of large scale estafa.
Before CIDG SITG Sabungero took over the cases, a complaint for kidnapping was already filed with the Office of the City Prosecutor of San Pablo City against the said armed men. The complaint though, was dismissed for insufficient evidence.
