Ex-anti-crime czar’s son loses Pajero to carjackers

[lightning099]

Not even a son of former anti-crime czar and now Environment Secretary Angelo Reyes was spared by car thieves.

Reyes’ son Angelito lost his black Mitsubishi Pajero with license plates XAU-931, while it was parked along Matahimik street in Teacher’s Village in Quezon City the other night.

The young Reyes was reportedly visiting a friend in the area when the theft occurred at around 9 p.m. Thursday. It was not known, however, how long the vehicle was left unattended.

Police have yet to locate witnesses who could describe and identify the car thieves.

Reyes, a former secretary of the Department of the Interior and Local Government, used to head the government’s anti-crime task force, which tracked down criminals ranging from kidnappers and smugglers to robbers and car thieves. It was during his term as DILG chief and anti-crime czar when crimes like car theft decreased.

But according to Philippine National Police—Traffic Management Group (PNP-TMG) director Chief Superintendent Errol Pan, the case of the young Reyes was considered "isolated."

"TMG operatives are now investigating the case but we want to make it clear that that case is an isolated one," Pan told The STAR. He pointed out that car theft dropped to an average two cars a day from four to five in the past.

Pan said investigators are now tracking down the car thieves. "May isang grupo pa kaming mino-monitor (We are monitoring one group), we hope to get them and the vehicle as soon as possible," he said, but refused to elaborate on the group’s description.

He maintained that the TMG has sustained the campaign against car thieves, and "there will be no letup in the campaign against car theft."

Just recently, police recovered a foreign diplomat’s Mitsubishi Montero that was stolen while parked on Canberra street in Green Park Subdivision in Pasig City.

naku po, start of the 'ber months uli kaya mejo ingat po uli tayo mga fellow tsikoteers! aangat na naman po for sure ang rate of carjacking and carnapping as well as other crimes sa paligid.

[cuecraftsman]

at lapit narin ELECTIONS...

[OTEP]

Napansin ko lang sa mga [though hindi naman lahat] kamag-anak ng mga may katungkulan or dun sa mga may connection ay medyo may pagka-kampante sila. Yung tipong hindi na nag-eexercise ng common sense security measures. Feeling siguro immune sila sa crime. I'm not singling out this victim. Napansin ko lang sa mga kakilala kong tiga-gobyerno.

[Horsepower]

dapat i-rubout na silang lahat para matakot.

Nung panahon ng MetroCom and PC walang ganyan. Dead on arrival lagi mga kriminal. hehehe

[oldblue]

sa teacher's village pa hehehe.

[swimstroke]

Gen 3 kaya ito?

[bavent]

palagay ko madali lang ito marecover kasi sabi nga ng mga pulis isolated case daw ito at syempre anak ni Sec Reyes he he he.
By this time siguro isip na mga carnappers paano isoli Pajero.:

[autofrost]

Just heard that thru my friend who is close to the victim MR. angelo Reyes Jr. Sad to say, wla n talaga sinasanto mga bad elements d2 sa atin. Just recently, barely 2 wks ago, i facilitated a cousins purchase of a brand new Toyota Fortuner 4X4 dsl, just last sat. they visited a friend here in Bocaue Bulacan all the way from Makati. at around 1am, they drop of a friend b4 going home, while waiting outside the house 4 some stuffs, suddenly a whyt Mazda3 park at their back and 2 men with M16 alighthed and at gunpoint forces them to go down, and presto, as easy as that, they came home carless. tsk.tsk.tsk. what a government we have!

[woods]

Pustahan tayo , the car will be recovered easily. The carjackers, after learning that it was Reyes' car will immediately turn it over to their bosses in TMG para maisoli agad kay Reyes.

There was an incident before na politician din ang may-ari then naisoli agad yung vehicle.
