Five of 10 detainees who escaped from a police substation in Malibay, Pasay City on Monday have been recaptured hours after they bolted their cells.

Meanwhile, Metro Manila police director Maj. Gen. Edgar Alan Okubo ordered the relief of Maj. Jerry Sunga as Malibay Police Substation 6 commander following the incident.

In a press conference, Pasay Mayor Imelda Calixto-Rubiano urged the families of the detainees still at-large to encourage them to surrender.

The police identified those still-missing as Richard Dela Cruz, Carlo Magno Benavidez, Norman Deyta, and Joseph Osorio, all for illegal drugs; and John Michael Cabe (carnapping).

The five who were back in jail were identified as Eden Garcia, Joey Hernandez, Christian Salvatierra, Joshua Panganiban, and Tirzo Galit.

“Sana po sumuko na po kayo. Huwag na po ninyong gawin ‘yan kasi baka mamaya mapaano pa po kayo sa labas. Eh mas maganda po bumalik na kayo at binibigyan naman kayo ng pagkakataon (Please surrender. Don’t do that because later something might happen to you. It is better that you return and you will be given a chance),” Mayor Rubiano assured. Joel E. Zurbano

“At sa mga pamilya nila, sana payuhan niyo rin po ang inyong mga mahal sa buhay na ang gawin ay ‘yung tama. Baka naguguluhan lang sila (To their families, I am hoping that you would advise your loved ones to do the right thing. Maybe they are just confused),” she added.

The city government is offering a reward of P30,000 per detainee for any information leading to the escapees arrest.
