The suspect, identified only as “Alias Jared” of Legazpi City, Albay, was captured through a manhunt ordered by Mayor Imelda “Emi” Calixto-Rubiano.
On Friday, Aug. 29, two armed men allegedly stormed a massage parlor along Cabrera Street, robbing 13 therapists and raping two of the victims before fleeing.
The mayor condemned the crime, saying it has “no place in Pasay City.” She added, “With the help of our Pasay Police and other agencies, we are certain that justice will be served.”
She directed Pasay police chief Col. Joselito de Sesto to intensify patrols and increase citywide police visibility.
After his arrest, Jared was presented to Calixto-Rubiano by Pasay police officials following standard booking and medical procedures.
The mayor also pledged full assistance to the victims.
“The Pasay City local government unit is committed to providing not just judicial support, but also holistic support and assistance to all victims and families,” she said.
