Whistleblower Julie “Dondon” Patidongan, alias Totoy, earlier claimed that the policemen were paid by gaming tycoon Charlie “Atong” Ang. Ang has denied involvement in the case.
In a Manila Times exclusive interview, Calamba City Councilor Arvin Manguiat said he knew the names tagged by Patidongan in the administrative complaint.
Manguiat, who survived two attempts on his life, said Patidongan told him that the one who ordered his 2021 ambush was Ang.
