MANILA, Philippines — The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) has apologized for the behavior of Special Operations Group-Strike Force chief Gabriel Go, who reportedly shamed a police captain over his illegally parked motorcycle in Quezon City last week.
The MMDA said it is “addressing the matter seriously and with full accountability” as it asked Go to explain his actions in the March 25 clearing operations near the Anonas police station.
