The National Police Commission (NAPOLCOM) filed administrative charges on Tuesday against 11 police officers connected to the missing sabungeros case.
The officers were also accused of being involved in other abductions that took place in 2021.
According to NAPOLCOM’s Inspection Monitoring and Investigation Service (IMES), the charges were filed before the Legal Affairs Service after investigators found probable cause.
IMES Staff Service Director Edman Pares said during a press conference that they discovered evidence pointing to a possible kidnapping, which led them to file two counts of grave misconduct.

He also mentioned that they filed two counts of conduct unbecoming of a police officer because of the same actions.
The charges came after the parents of missing persons Charles Dean Sotto and Dane Mark Carlos filed a complaint-affidavit last September.
These cases added to the growing investigation into the disappearance of several cockfighting enthusiasts, or sabungeros, who went missing in recent years.
In July, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said it was looking into the possible connection between the missing sabungeros and extrajudicial killings during the government’s drug war.
Former Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla stated that some individuals involved in contract killings might also have ties to both the drug war and e-sabong operations.
Authorities continue to dig deeper into the case to uncover the truth behind the series of disappearances and alleged police involvement.

In a report by Gary De Leon of TV 5's 'Frontline Pilipinas,' the family started getting threats after lending P1-M to one of the residents of their barangay; allegedly using the money for business.
In another viral local report, a 51-year-old public school teacher in Las Piñas City was stabbed multiple times by her own husband. According to the report of EJ Gomez in 'Unang Balita,' the 38-year-old suspect committed the crime inside the school's faculty room. Police authorities said the school has a security guard, but, being a familiar face in the school, the suspect managed to easily get in and out of the school. The suspect said he was there to talk to his wife and settle their misunderstanding, but unfortunately, it led to a big arguement.
