Cockfighting led to a horrible case

[kotajikikox]

If this has not been brought up here, I will do it. In the Philippines, this news is what everyone is talking about. Several gamblers were abducted and have been missing since. It has been only revealed that those missing gamblers were really killed after they were caught cheating in cockfighting.

A whistleblower says there were more than 100 that were killed. The prime suspect is Atong Ang, a businessman and a major player in the gambling industry. His team denies all accusations and says to be filing a case against the one accusing the businessman. It has even been said that some corrupt police men were involved in the abduction and killing of gamblers.

Anyway, whoever is behind all this should be punished and I hope the victims get the justice they deserve. I do not condone cheating in gambling but is killing really the way? Let us pray for the victims.

Of course we can only pray for the victims.....!
It seems like this is a complicated case, the reason is that many people are involved in the chicken gambling murder case, as Totoy said against Atong Ang.

ACTRESS, COPS, FORMER VICE MAYOR ALLEGEDLY INVOLVED
 "Totoy" also tagged other high-profile individuals, including an actress, members of the police force, and even a former local government official, in the disappearances of more than 30 sabungeros who he said have already been killed and dumped in Taal Lake.

Those involved in an important person in the Philippines all involved, I think the case will take a long time to be revealed, this is really bad.

Yes, taking someone else's life is never an option in resolving disputes no matter how grievous they seem. Every victim deserves justice. Until I read that article, I never knew such magnitude of brutality and ruthlessness existed in the gambling industry in the Philippines.

I do not condone cheating in gambling but is killing really the way? Let us pray for the victims.

It's the same way I don't like taking part in sports where animals are subjected to cruelty just to satisfy man's gambling appetite. It was the same pattern during slave trade era where slave masters would summon their slaves to brutal fights and bet on them. I condemn this in strong terms. There should be a legislation against cockfighting.

[Slow death]

It is a very complicated case because the person who is accusing has no evidence, he said he was not present when the people died, he also said that there was a video showing people being tortured, but that his phone was confiscated and burned. So without evidence it is very difficult to give credibility to the case.

It is also very strange that no one filmed when there was a cockfight, that way at least it could be said that the people were at the cockfight organized by Atong Ang, I saw this news on Portuguese channels, and according to the sources I saw, they said that this case happened in 2021 - 2022 and that 15 police officers were arrested.

This is the reason I just like online gambling because if it is online gambling, nobody will know that I am the one online doing my thing easily at my own comfort at home.

There have been so many offline gambling cases before that bad things happened, especially to the winner, although this one is of higher level.

This is the severe punishment to cheating players compared to the typical punishment here in online casino that usually just confiscate the profit and ban the account.

I saw this news last week and one of the victim of this missing sabungero is from my same brgy that until now still seeking for justice on searching the victim.

Considering the justice system in the Philippines. I doubt the culprit will be heavily punished since even on the prison they have special treatment like VIP.

I consider this the biggest news for the last three weeks, and it will continue to be big news; it’s everywhere. The mainstream news in the Philippines is covering this 24/7; it’s a big challenge for the justice system in the Philippines because the whistleblower has exposed that judges, up to the Supreme Court level, are on their payroll.

The prime suspect, Atong Charlie Ang, was formerly Duterte’s adviser on gaming and gambling, the same Atong Ang who was responsible for then-President Estrada’s downfall due to their involvement in Jueteng.

There is a lot to come on this, and we will see if the judicial system in the Philippines cannot be bribed, as the individual reportedly earned 1 billion pesos daily. At the time, the e-sabong was still operational, and he had a big network of politicians and police on his payroll.

Ain't it all.

Whenever some bullshit is happening on an illegal industry that they made it looked like it is legal, there's cops, and government officials that are involved. It's a fact. It's not even a fairy tale anymore, or just happening in the movies.

I bet the real head of the snake will not be imprisoned here. It will take a lot of trial, and it will be for a long time until the people get bored with it and it will be buried deep with one or two cops in jail, and not even a government official who will serve a sentence. Worse, they will put a man they paid, and he will take all the blame for them.

We are in a corrupt country, and the rich can bend all the rules. They are more talented than the last airbender.

honestly, this is part of the disadvantage that is associated with physical gambling because in one way or the other, the risk goes beyond just the amount of money you might lose. winning in some physical gambling center is an issue just same way that losing is also an issue at most gambling center. the emotions and twist as well as the argument that springs up are part of the reasons that leads to serious chaos that in the long run leads to something that becomes really bad for most gamblers that likes to engage in physical gambling.

killing an 100 person is the Hight of it and honestly, it will record as one of the highest massacre that is associated to a gambling case. while a lot of revelation about this whole thing comes up as the day goes by, it is just unfortunate that this numbers of youths have to die in this manner.

If they can present just a single evidence to these event taking place, then it can be treated as valid, because we know how kidnapping now is being rampart and this does not have to do with gambling, once they can find a means of extorting from you, then you become their victim, but for the case of cock fighter gamblers, given them a death sentence is not a good idea, which i believe the individuals are the ones taking law into their hands for doing such.

even with online gambling, if it has kyc your identity can still be revealed if the people has access to the platform or has some connection with the owners or employees of the platform

anyone who wants to play dirty can do so if they are rich and were well connected

[Oasisman]

This case is more than just a gambling related case. This case is politically tied with the Dutertes. If you all have noticed about what's happening in the PH politics today - the current administration are trying their hardest to eliminate all the threats before the 2028 presidential elections. Those threats are no other than the Dutertes. I know ya'll would question or say "this has nothing to do with Atong Ang". Well, let me tell you this, Atong Ang is one of the richest person close to Rodrigo Duterte who will have a lot of connections that will help the Dutertes put into the position again.
Sarah and Atong Ang will be the last people the Marcoses wants to eliminate.

[Wonder Work]

It has even been said that some corrupt police men were involved in the abduction and killing of gamblers.

When police officers are engaged in serving the public, it is often the police themselves who commit illegal acts as law enforcement officers. These should be judged appropriately. It is better not to have such police than to have them.

Anyway, whoever is behind all this should be punished and I hope the victims get the justice they deserve. I do not condone cheating in gambling but is killing really the way? Let us pray for the victims.

Yes, I pray for the victims, if they are alive, that they can recover from this false case very soon, and if there has been a tragic death, I offer my condolences to their families and pray for them that they are well.

[BitGoba]

 What happened in the Philippines is truly shocking and heartbreaking. No matter what someone did, taking a life is never justified. Cheating in gambling should be dealt with according to the law, not through violence and killing. I hope that the authorities conduct a thorough investigation and that everyone responsible, no matter how powerful, is brought to justice. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families. Let’s hope they find peace and justice soon.

[Odusko]

This is a Mafia case right here and for sure the victims I feel sorry for and this can only happen in a country where there is high rate of insecurity and tougry, the gamblers may have fallen out of luck since you mentioned that they were caught cheating in a cockfights games, this is what jungle justice really looks like and the police should be able to have new about them, since 100 gambler's went missing without any trace.

[DaNNy001]

Cheating is bad but killing someone for it is absolutely insane...I do hear of cases where gamblers get killed in casinos most especially the ones that are underground, this is why it's better to gamble online instead of gambling with people because it's very risky, you might be dealing with psychopaths... sometimes people get killed even when they don't cheat, their competitors that are psychotic in nature can't handle losses so they get violent

[EluguHcman]

Cockfighting has been an abolished event in several regions due to the fact it captivates individuals with high interests or even gamblers to practice felony just to secure their personal interests. I don't know this event stil exist til date.

Totoy" says he is ready to identify the police officers allegedly involved and has called on the PNP’s Integrity Monitoring and Enforcement Group (IMEG) and CIDG to take urgent action

All claims against Atong Ang were said to be false, so I wonder what further proof Totoy is going to provide to back his claims up.
Identify the police involved by just pointing fingers won't be enough and not ideologically of any proof of evidence.

But on the other hand, if the authorities would be fair, I think every of those officers that would be pointed out should be thoroughly investigated especially considering their assigned duties posts or interrogated about their place of being in reference to the time when all the claims of Totoy happened.

[cabron]

How have they thought the wrong deed they did wouldn't leak when there are hundreds of them conspiring to cheat?  Of course one of them will speak about it.

And the businessman probably lost a lot of money for what they did so he made them an example so that anyone who plans to cross him will think a hundred times. But yep seem like this businessman is so big in the country where he can buy the politicians and authorities.

People are really heartless, if the gamblers were caught cheating, the honourable thing to do is to to get them arrested and not take the laws into your hands, except they want to tell me that the cock fighting thing is all illegal and they are all entangled in one supremacy battle or the other, because it's looking like a gang related case here. Nothing comes close to online gambling, first you don't have the ability to cheat the process, secondly nobody knows each other, and if you win is all yours, if you lose you try again next time.

[aioc]

This case could have been forgotten if not for the whistleblower, Atong Ang, is a real gangster. He reportedly bribes everybody, and he is not afraid to take down anybody. I heard from one lawyer that he once slapped a lawmaker.
This case highlights the weaknesses of the judicial system and reveals the corruption within the authorities in that region.

The Philippines will become a laughing stock if it cannot solve this case. I consider this a landmark case. The Justice Department is up against a guy who bribed the judicial and police forces to protect him and to keep him innocent.
