One of Pasig City’s most wanted fugitives for murder was arrested in a manhunt operation in Oriental Mindoro on Monday.

The 49-year-old accused, identified only by the alias “Buchukoy,” a resident of Barangay Antonio, Victoria, Oriental Mindoro, was apprehended by joint operatives of the Pasig City Police Station’s Follow-up Section and EDIT RIUNCR IG at around 12:05 PM along Sitio Silangan, Barangay Antonio, Victoria.

The accused, Pasig City’s No. 2 most wanted person, was arrested by virtue of a warrant issued by the Pasig City Regional Trial Court Branch 268 for the crime of murder, with no bail recommended.
