PASAY police arrested on Monday, Sept. 1, one of the two suspects in the robbery and rape of massage therapists last Aug. 29.
The suspect, identified only as “Alias Jared” of Legazpi City, Albay, was captured through a manhunt ordered by Mayor Imelda “Emi” Calixto-Rubiano.
On Friday, Aug. 29, two armed men allegedly stormed a massage parlor along Cabrera Street, robbing 13 therapists and raping two of the victims before fleeing.

She directed Pasay police chief Col. Joselito de Sesto to intensify patrols and increase citywide police visibility.
