Story 2: Ex-Navy and his wife with Seven arrest warrants arrested by the CIDG
Former member of Philippine Navy together with his wife were arrested by the personnel of PNP- Criminal Investigation and Detection Group, (CIDG) May 18, at around 5:30 am in front of his house.
The one who were in-charge of the operation for their arrest was the CIDG-Detection and Special Operations Division (DSOD).
The couple was identified as Bernardo Mabbagu, 52, a former enlisted personnel of Philippine Navy and his wife Rachel Mabbagu, 48. They were arrested in Comets Loop St., Blue Ridge, Quezon City.
The CIDG received a copy of arrest warrant last May 7 and learned that the suspects has other six arrest warrants issued by San Mateo, Rizal Trial Court since year 2006 or about two years ago for cases of grave coercion and malicious mischief.
According to C/Insp. Noel Villegas of the CIDG-DSOD, the couple sells house and lot properties wherein it has original owners and in reality they are not for sale.
“He was selling some private house and lots in Grand View Park Subdivision in San Mateo, Rizal wherein the owners find about it because there are some people claiming ownership on their lot saying that they bought the lot from Mabbagu,” Villegas said.
The complainants were Leonora Sebastian, Armando Barbosa and Belinda Santos who are the owners of the said properties. They said the couple are claiming ownership and also invading the building structures.
The two also has modus operandi appearing that they have legitimate office in 10th Avenue in Barangay Socorro, Cubao, Quezon City but there are other occupants there. Also, they are also advertising some houses in newspapers.
Bernardo Mabbagu stayed in Philippine Navy for five years he was dismissed year 2000 for lack of training and formal schooling.
Villegas also said that their participation on the case is only to arrest the suspects. they already turned over the suspects at San Mateo Rizal Trial Court to face the charges against them and probably to be transferred to San Mateo jail.
“We learned that they victimized many clients, and they will also file complaints against the two,” Villegas said.

Hi Sir, I hope you researched well about this case. The truth about this case was the reversed. The syndicates were actually the people against the Mabbagus. Bernard and Rachel Mabbagu were politicized and envied by the self imposed "owners" who thought that there was no true owner of the land in San Mateo. Until now, they are being harassed and being pinned down by those who are in power in that area because they really owned the land and the land grabbers don't want to lose the land they already sold.-Greg M.
