After more than a year in hiding, a man accused of killing a drug surrenderer in November 2016 was arrested in Rizal province on Sunday.

Nazarene Adornado was ranked by the Marikina police as the most wanted man in the city for his alleged involvement in the death of Arthur Andres and several robberies.

Members of the Marikina police intelligence branch and warrant and subpoena section arrested the 32-year-old suspect, also known as “Nazi,” at Celina Homes Subdivision in Burgos, Rodriguez, based on a tip from an informant.

Records obtained by the Inquirer showed that Adornado was accused of killing Andres in his house on J.P. Rizal Street in Malanday on Nov. 28, 2016.

Andres had surrendered under “Oplan Tokhang,” the government campaign that encourages drug users and peddlers to turn themselves in for recovery and rehabilitation. A witness positively identified Adornado who allegedly killed Andres over an old grudge.
