MANILA: A police officer was killed while another was wounded in an operation that resulted in the rescue of two Chinese nationals and arrest of two kidnappers in Pampanga, the Philippine National Police (PNP) said on Monday. In a report, PNP Anti-Kidnapping Group director Brig. Gen. Cosme Abrenica said the operation stemmed from information from China's Police Attache Zheng Zhue regarding a case of kidnapping for ransom involving Chinese nationals as both victims and suspects in Makati City on Aug. 3. The kidnappers brought the victims to Angeles City and demanded an PHP8 million ransom. At 2 p.m. on the same day, operatives raided a safehouse in Angeles City, which resulted in a gunfight with the suspects Hu Kai and Ryu Don. Staff Sgt. Nelson Santiago, and Chief Master Sgt. Eden Accad were injured in the firefight and were brought to the Angeles University Foundation Medical Center. However, Santiago was pronounced dead on arrival. Abrenica said the two victims were rescued while the two Chinese gunmen were arrested. Seized from them were two hand guns, drug paraphernalia and jungle knives. Source: Philippines News Agency
