On August 29, unidentified suspects abducted two girls, aged five and seven, while playing near their home in Malibay, Pasay City. Parents remain clueless about their abduction due to absence of ransom demand. After five days, the abductors called the victims’ parents and demanded for PhP 10,000 (US$ 233) for the victims’ immediate release. The parents sought police assistance and an entrapment was set up to apprehend those behind the abduction. On September 3, the parents agreed to pay the ransom and arranged for pay off with police assistance. Both girls were found unharmed inside a fast food restaurant located along P. Ocampo Street, Pasay City. According to the victims, the suspects forced them to beg on the streets under the close monitoring of their abductors. At the end of the day, the suspects would collect money from them and would be locked up inside a room. The victims could no longer recall where they were brought to beg. No suspects were arrested.
