PNP8 launched a manhunt operation on brothers who escaped in Samar prison


The Philippine National Police (PNP) have launched a manhunt for two inmates who bolted from the lock-up cell of the municipal police station in Calbiga, Samar on Monday night.

The police on Tuesday stated that the two brothers, charged with carnapping and robbery, escaped by cutting through the bars of their cell. The police asked the public to be vigilant since the two are considered “armed and dangerous”.
“The fugitive grabbed a motorcycle parked outside the police station, which served as their getaway vehicle and took a hostage, who subsequently managed to escape from her captors while on their route of escape,” the PNP said in a statement.
The two suspects are Roel Mabahin, 22, single, jobless, accused of carnapping; and Rodel Mabahin, 19, single, jobless and accused of robbery. Both are residents of Minata village in Calbiga town.
PNP Eastern Visayas Regional Director, Brigadier General Dionardo Carlos ordered all police stations to be more alert and vigilant in their respective areas of jurisdiction.
“We must do everything in our ability to prevent such untoward incidents from happening again. I am calling on all the chiefs of police to stay on the ground with your men to be in full force to maintain the peace and order of the community,” Carlos added.
The police regional office has released photos of the two wanted escapees to alert all police stations and the public.
