CEBU CITY – The National Bureau of Investigation in Central Visayas has arrested a lawyer working at the Register of Deeds in Mandaue City for allegedly extorting money from a land owner.Atty. Renan Oliva, director of the NBI-Central Visayas, said the entrapment operation stemmed from the complaint of Manuel Dy Jr.
“Mr. Dy claimed that he felt insulted and betrayed by the action of Atty. Mayol because the latter won’t act on any transaction in his official capacity as Register of Deeds without any monetary consideration,” said Oliva in a media briefing on Monday, Nov. 28. Dy told the NBI-7 that he requested for annotation of another Certificate of Title when Mayol allegedly demanded another P150,000 for the second annotation.
