Manila Bulletin
|May 20, 2025
Authorities have arrested one of the key suspects in the kidnap-slay of businessman Anson Que and another person implicated in the case during a raid in a resort in Boracay Island over the weekend, a ranking police official confirmed on Monday, May 19.
Lt. Gen. Edgar Alan Okubo, the Chief Directorial Staff of the Philippine National Police (PNP), said Wenli Gong and a certain Wu Ja Ping were collared on Saturday afternoon based on the reliable information of the police.
Okubo, who also heads the PNP's Joint Anti-Kidnapping Committee (JAKAC), said the operation was a result of the intelligence-gathering and surveillance after the name of Wenli Gong came out as a key player in the kidnap-slay of Que and his driver Armanie Pabillo.
