Chinese cohort of Marine officer implicated in PHP380-M drug bust surrenders to NBI

MANILA, Jan. 4 (PNA) -- The Chinese cohort of Marine Lt. Col. Ferdinand Marcelino who was implicated in a PHP380 million drug-bust in Sta. Cruz, Manila last year, surrendered to the National Bureau of Investigation, Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre II said on Wednesday.

Aguirre said that Yan Yi Shuo a.k.a Randy, surrendered Tuesday night to the NBI Special Task Force headed by Head Agent Moises Tamayo. The Special Task Force was constituted by NBI Director Dante Gierran to handle delicate missions of similar nature.

“We are proud to announce that Yan Yi Shuo a.k.a Randy is now under the custody of the NBI. This is a welcome development insofar as our pursuit of this case is concerned,” Aguirre said adding that the alleged companion of Col. Marcelino in the illegal drugs case filed by the Department of Justice. 


Under the stewardship of Secretary Aguirre and Director Gierran, the NBI has made great achievements in President Duterte’s War on Drugs including the successful PHP 6-billion drug haul last December 2016. This is the largest drug raid in the history of the Philippine’s fight against illegal drugs.

“As I have said before, we shall be relentless in this fight,"Aguirre added.


The Manila Regional Trial Court Branch 49 issued an arrest warrant against Marcelino and Chinese co-accused Yan Yi Shou last Dec. 22 after turning down their motion to dismiss the drug charges against them.

The two men were nabbed by anti-narcotics operatives last Jan. 21, 2016 in an abandoned shabu laboratory at the Celadon Residences in Sta. Cruz, Manila where authorities seized 76,697.7 grams of shabu worth over PHP380 million. On Tuesday, the DOJ filed an urgent motion before the Manila Regional Trial Court (RTC) which seeks the issuance of a hold departure order against of Marcelino and his Chinese cohort over the drug case filed by the DOJ against them last September.

“It is most respectfully prayed of his Honorable Court that the urgent motion for the issuance of hold departure order be granted and a HDO be issued against accused Lt. Colonel Ferdinand Marcelino and Yan Yi Shou, directing the Bureau of Immigration to include them in its hold departure list to prevent any possibility of their flight to another country to avoid prosecution of the case against them,” Senior Deputy State Prosecutor Richard Anthony Fadullon said in a three-page urgent motion filed before Manila RTC Branch 49 Judge Daniel Villanueva.

“The prosecution dreads and believes that both accused may leave the country to escape prosecution and avoid facing up their liability and thus frustrates the end of justice,” it added.(PNA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
