A former Manila policeman who allegedly became a leader of a criminal group and is wanted for murder was arrested by his former colleagues from the Manila Police District-Police Station 7 (MPD-PS7).
Arrested at the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) Angeles District Jail male dormitory in Camp Tomas Pepito, Sto. Domingo, Angeles City, Pampanga was ex-Police Corporal Ricardo Razon, formerly of the MPD and a resident of Sta. Cruz, Manila.
Currently detained at MPD-PS7, Razon is said to be the leader of a criminal group involved in gun-for-hire operations, illegal drugs, carnapping, and robbery. He was dismissed from the service in 2024 for malversation of public property after pawning his classmate’s Galil rifle.
Police said that in August 2025, he was caught in a hot pursuit operation by the Pampanga Police and Highway Patrol Group after entering a cockfighting arena in San Fernando, Pampanga. He was later traced by MPD-PS7 when the Malabon Regional Trial Court issued an arrest warrant against him for murder.
Records show that Razon allegedly killed a man due to a failed drug transaction. No bail was recommended for his temporary liberty.
Formerly assigned at the MPD-DDEU, Razon reportedly married a police asset who was also a drug pusher, which allegedly led to his involvement in the illegal drug trade.
