A different police officer appears to have been the one who arrested Master Sgt. Rodolfo Mayo – not the officers first reported to have done so — in a buy-bust operation in Oct. 2022 that yielded P6.7 billion worth of crystal meth. | GabrielLaluINQ
This apparently surprised Barbers and Antipolo Rep. Romeo Acop because, normally, arresting police officers or their team leaders were the ones to file cases.This prompted Acop — a retired police general — to ask Col. Julian Olonan, Calabarzon SOU head, why a different officer, Capt. Randolph Piñon, was tagged as the one who arrested Mayo.
“But I thought it was Sosongco who arrested Mayo? I cannot understand the answers you give,” Acop said.At the first hearing of the committee, Olonan told Barbers, Acop, and other lawmakers that he had received a report from Sosongco that Mayo was caught in a buy-bust operation. Olonan maintained that Mayo was arrested in a hot pursuit operation and not a buy-bust — leading Acop and Barbers to marvel at the new information, given that initially, there were reports that Mayo was already under police custody as early as 1:00 p.m.Both were unconvinced that Piñon was behind the arrest, especially when the police captain admitted that he was not part of the pre-operation planning and that he arrived at the scene after 4:00 p.m. on Oct. 8, 2022.
“Police Colonel Olonan, Your Honor. He said that we should conduct a hot pursuit operation,” Piñon answered.
