    FBI agent assaulted by armed men on Roxas Boulevard | Coconuts Manila


    By Coconuts Manila, 10 Sep 2014 04:38 0 comments


    Yes, folks, he's the real deal. We're sorry this happened to him, but we're also curious about his mission here.

    "Lamont Siler—an agent of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) who is currently on assignment in the country—was allegedly assaulted by a group of armed men following a minor vehicular accident on Roxas Boulevard in Pasay City at around 7pm on Monday, September 8," reports Maricar B. Brizuela in Philippine Daily Inquirer.

    The alleged incident happened near the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) complex.

    According to Pasay City police chief Senior Supt. Melchor Reyes, "Siler was dragged out of his vehicle at gunpoint and took a punch after his car's side mirror got into contact with and left scratches on a sport utility vehicle (SUV)."

    In fact, it was US Embassy Manila Special Investigator Voltaire Gomez who went to the Pasay police station later that night and confirmed Siler's identity.

    Gomez had also told Reyes that following the road the mishap, "Siler’s car was blocked by two other SUVs which apparently served as backup vehicles for the first SUV that got scratched."

    Then, "four of the men who got out pointed shotguns at the Siler and demanded that he hand over his driver’s license and U.S. Embassy badge."

    The men returned Siler's things to him after they saw he was an FBI agent. It was at this point that they left, telling Siler they would still contact him on the phone for payment.

    The report noted: "Investigators on Tuesday began tracking down the damaged vehicle—a Toyota Fortuner with license plate number YF-8560—by checking with the Land Transportation Office.

    Err... that's not a license plate, that looks like a conduction sticker.

    Retired cop faces charges for mauling of FBI agent

    A retired Philippine National Police colonel and his six bodyguards are facing charges for allegedly mauling a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agent in Pasay last week.

    Retired colonel Odelon Ramoneda, chairman of V8 Security Agency, and his bodyguards were charged with grave threats, grave coercion and direct assault before the prosecutor’s office.

    The complaint was filed by American FBI Lamont Siler, 40 and temporarily Ramoneda did not give the names of the bodyguards he was with during the time of incident but said he was willing to show their photos of the bodyguards in order for Siler to identify them.

    Siler was rushed to San Juan De Dios Hospital for treatment of wounds and bruises he sustained in a mauling incident.

    Senior Supt. Melchor Reyes, chief of the Pasay City police said Siler claimed the mauling incident happened along the southbound lane of Roxas Boulevard in front of the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) at about 7 p.m.

    Siler was driving a vehicle with plate number 27549 when it accidentally grazed a black Toyota Fortuner bearing plate number YF 8560 and damaged its right side mirror.

    Siler told police that two sports utility vehicles, which were behind the Fortuner, blocked his path.

    Men armed with shotguns alighted from the two vehicles and surrounded him, he said.

    One of the bodyguards forced him out of his vehicle and then the men began beating him up, he told police.

    Siler said showed his FBI identification card and badge and introduced himself as an agent but the men continued to beat him up.

    Ex-PNP official punched FBI man, probe shows | Inquirer Global Nation

    Pasay road rage suspect a retired cop, security agency boss

    MANILA, Philippines–Not only active members are giving the Philippine National Police a bad rap these days.

    A retired PNP official and now owner of a security agency is facing charges after he was identified as one of the persons who punched an agent of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) following a minor vehicular accident Monday night in Pasay City.

    According to the Pasay police, FBI special agent Lamont Siler recognized Odelon Ramoneda—owner of V8 Security Agency Corp. and former acting director of the Bataan Police Provincial Office—as one of his attackers, who also included four, shotgun-toting men “in barong.”

    This was after the American was shown a photo of Ramoneda, whose name cropped up as investigators traced the owner of the Toyota Fortuner which Siler’s car slightly damaged in the Sept. 8 incident on Roxas Boulevard.

    Siler was then driving a car around 7 p.m. near the Cultural Center of the Philippines complex when its side mirror accidentally got into contact with and left scratches on the Fortuner. According to the complaint reaching the police, two other SUVs blocked his path and a group of armed men got out and dragged Siler out of the car at gunpoint.

    The American was then punched by the men (not just by one man, as earlier reported), as they demanded payment for the damage. They then asked for his driver’s license and US Embassy badge, but returned these items to him and left in a hurry, saying they would still call him about the payment. The incident was later reported to the Pasay police by US Embassy Manila Special Investigator Voltaire Gomez.

    The PNP Supervisory Office for Security and Investigation Agencies (Sosia) confirmed that Ramoneda, a retired senior superintendent, runs V8 Security and Investigation Agency based in Balanga, Bataan.

    In an interview, Sosia head Chief Supt. Noel Constantino said the retired official served as acting provincial police director of Bataan, a position he held in 2007. His last position was head of the Regional Headquarters Support Service of the Police Regional Office 3 in Central Luzon.

    Ramoneda retired from the police service in 2010, Constantino said. “His security agency was set up in 2012 with a license to operate for two years,” he added.

    Pasay police investigation section head Chief Insp. Joey Goforth said his office was able to trace the ownership of the Fortuner (with conduction sticker YF-8560) to Ramoneda after a check with Toyota Motor Phils.

    Goforth said his men had Ramoneda’s name checked with the PNP-Sosia because Siler also noted that the armed men who confronted him were all in barong and their movement indicated that they were “trained” for such road encounters. These made investigators suspect that they were private security personnel.

    Photos from the PNP Sosia database were later shown to the American on Wednesday.

    The Pasay police said they would file complaints for grave threats and maltreatment against Ramoneda Friday, after Siler signed a document authorizing Goforth to sue on his behalf.

    Efforts are underway in coordination with PNP-Sosia to identify the other men who attacked the FBI agent, Goforth said.

    The ex-POLICE official and his blue guard goons wanted to speak with the FBI agent but the US Embassy refused and opted to wait after the case has been filed in court. Ayaw daanan sa "Aregluhan"...
