MANILA, Philippines—Recent photos of fugitive former police officer Cezar Mancao were all Photoshopped and were released to “insult” the Department of Justice and the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), Justice Secretary Leila De Lima said Tuesday.

De Lima also called on members of the media not to give Mancao a venue to stage his “stunts.”

“Bakit nyo kasi pinapatulan pa yun. Halata naman na Photoshop yun. Nangdedenggoy na sya. Nakakainsulto na sya,” De Lima told reporters.
