PNP urged: Recover Que ransom
Surigao del Sur Representative Johnny Pimentel urged the Philippine National Police (PNP) to recover the P200 million ransom paid for kidnapped and killed businessman Anson Que.
Pimentel emphasized the need to follow the money trail, hold perpetrators accountable, and recover the illicitly obtained funds.
He warned that failing to retrieve the ransom would embolden criminal syndicates and perpetuate violence.
The congressman stated that the government must send a clear message that crime does not pay and that justice will be pursued.
Pimentel also expressed that the recovered money should be returned to Que's family to help ease their profound loss.
The bodies of Anson Que and his driver, Armanie Pabillo, were discovered in Rodriguez, Rizal on April 10.
The PNP has been seeking assistance from the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) and other agencies to trace the cryptocurrency payments made to the kidnappers.
