An operative of the Manila Police District-District Police Intelligence and Operations Unit (MPD-DPIOU) arrested a dismissed Manila police officer reportedly involved in major robbery and gun-for-hire cases in Metro Manila on Friday in Tondo, Manila.
The suspect, former PO1 Edwin Roma, 47, a resident of Tondo, Manila, was detained at the DPIOU.
According to Maj. Philip Ines, chief of the Public Information Office and MPD spokesperson, multiple arrest warrants were served on Roma, including one for “execution of judgment.”

Roma is also facing 11 criminal charges, mostly for robberies.
