PNP requests DOJ to drop charges against Alvin Que in kidnap-slay case

The Philippine National Police (PNP) will request the Department of Justice (DOJ) to remove Alvin Que, son of slain businessman Anson Que, from charges related to a recent kidnap-slay case.

According to lawyer Kit Belmonte, the PNP informed the family that there is no evidence against Alvin and are submitting a motion to amend the complaint.

On Thursday, Brig. Gen. Jean Fajardo stated during a press conference that while Liao accused Alvin in his voluntary surrender statement on April 19, there is no supporting evidence for this claim.

The PNP emphasized the need for thorough investigation to avoid implicating someone unjustly and stressed the lack of direct evidence linking Alvin Que to the case.

Alvin's legal counsel thanked the Philippine National Police under Chief PNP Gen. Rommel Marbil for clarifying erroneous reports regarding his client, noting that Alvin is cooperating with the Anti-Kidnapping Group.
