00:00Good evening, Paul Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
00:05A Taiwanese supplier of firearms of several FOGOs in the country has been arrested.
00:12He is wanted not only in the Philippines but also abroad because of illegal drugs and other crimes.
00:17He was once targeted by a raid in a condo in Makati where dozens of guns were recovered.
00:24And June Veneracion was shot.
00:26Last March, police raided a condo unit in Makati City
00:34which resulted in the confiscation of more than 80 guns and hundreds of bullets.
00:40Aside from the handguns, there were also assault rifles.
00:43But the operation was not reached by the raiding team.
00:47The Taiwanese fugitive, Zhang Zhang Yadong, was arrested more than a year ago.
00:54He was arrested yesterday in the operation of the PNP, AFP and Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission, or PAOC.
01:01On December 12, when someone gave us information that he was in a mall in Makati with his friends,
01:09they were in a restaurant.
01:11So when we went there, it was time for them to leave.
01:16It's a good thing that we caught them.
01:17We were able to effect the warrant for them.
01:19The suspect is also wanted in Taiwan because of involvement in illegal drugs.
01:23and other organized crime.
01:25When he escaped to the Philippines,
01:27the suspect set up his own organized crime group for his scamming and gunrunning activities.
01:33He is the supplier of guns and firearms of POGO.
01:39And you know, what we investigated last year,
01:46most of the POGO workers were killed by guns.
01:52The suspect was jailed in Makati City Police Station,
01:55but the media did not allow him to be seen.
01:58According to the monitoring of PAOC,
