Interior Secretary Jonvic Remulla confirms that businessman Charlie “Atong” Ang, accused in connection with the disappearances of several sabungeros, has already left the Philippines via a “backdoor.” Remulla says Ang is out of the country but does not provide further specifics on the timing, method, or where he crossed.

Across reports, Remulla declines to disclose Ang’s last known location in detail, saying the investigation remains ongoing. One outlet also reports that Ang was last seen in Cambodia, citing Remulla’s account. Police and other units continue to verify reports about whether Ang fled, while authorities pursue the broader allegations involving the reported kidnapping and killing of sabungeros. The confirmation focuses on Ang’s departure, without new public information on charges, custody status, or identifying documentation used during his exit.
