Alleged human remains in Taal Lake

The Department of Justice (DOJ) on Tuesday shared the items recovered by a joint team conducting search and retrieval operations in Taal Lake in relation to the case of missing sabungeros.

Justice spokesperson Atty. Polo Martinez said the team was composed of personnel from various units of the police, Coast Guard, and investigative groups.

Among the recoveries were a black fine net and three sacks containing three pieces of alleged human skeletal remains and black sand.

The pieces of evidence are now under the custody of the RFU4A team and CIDG Batangas for proper documentation and further investigation.

This marks the fourth date of operations, following the DOJ’s earlier announcement of the recovery of 57 bones on three separate dates earlier this month.

A total of 60 operations were conducted from July to October, with 981 bone pieces submitted for examination.
