“To those individuals na nanonood, lahat ng nanonood, sino man sa inyo ang nakakaalam, makakaalam, makapagbibigay ng impormasyon para masakote itong mga kriminal na pumunta sa Maynila, bibigyan po namin kayo ng pabuya na isang milyong piso,” he added.
The Metrobank branch in Binondo was robbed by at least seven suspects around 8:40 a.m.
According to Moreno, police authorities are now conducting dragnet operation to hunt down the suspects following the incident.
He then warned that the local government of Manila would not stop in its pursuit of the seven suspects.
“We will pursue, hahanapin po namin kayo, hindi namin kayo bibigyan ng kapanatagan. Hindi namin kayo papayagan na guluhin, perwisyuhin ang mamamayan ng lungsod ng Maynila,” he said.
“You cannot escape the long arm of the law, sabi nga ng kasabihan, and we will try to do that and go after him. Sa lahat ng enforcement units ng buong Pilipinas, nananawagan ako sa inyo, habulin niyo ito. Kunin nyo itong mga taong ito. Dalhin natin sila sa mata ng batas, papapanagutin natin sila,” Moreno added./je
