Police receive hundreds of tips on Bato’s whereabouts

MANILA, Philippines — Philippine National Police chief Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr. on Monday said they have received no less than 500 information on the whereabouts of Senator Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa.

Some of the information alleged that dela Rosa is hiding in islands that Nartatez said he has not heard of before.

The fugitive senator is being hunted based on an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court for alleged crimes against humanity.

The government has offered a P50 million bounty for information leading to his arrest.
