SAN PEDRO CITY – A man tagged by the authorities as an “abortionist” was arrested in Rodriguez, Rizal on Sunday morning.
Chief Supt. Guillermo Eleazar, director of the Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, Quezon (CALABARZON) police, said cops searched the home of Randy Picardal, alias Tata, in Sitio Hamuyuan, Barangay San Jose at around 6 a.m.
