Ramon Tulfo Reveals Chinese Businessman Was Killed Despite ₱160M Ransom Payment
RAMON TULFO The veteran journalist and columnist revealed through trusted sources that a Chinese businessman, recently kidnapped in Pasay City, was killed along with his driver, despite his family paying a total of ₱160 million in ransom.
The victim, identified as Anson Que, was the owner of Elison Steel in Valenzuela. He was reportedly abducted while dining at a seafood restaurant along Macapagal Avenue. Despite his familys efforts to save him—first by paying ₱60 million, followed by another ₱100 million—the kidnappers still took his life.
