LUPAO, Nueva Ecija — Three village officials were arrested on Saturday in police operations in this northernmost Nueva Ecija town.

Barangay chair Lou Salvador and councilman Jonathan Sinagose of Poblacion West, and councilman Joven Dadag of Barangay Mapangpang, were collared after President Duterte disclosed on Jan. 19 in Cabanatuan City that many of the 6,000 people in his narcolist were village officials.
