THE twin heists on financing firms in Cebu City last Saturday and the P1.75-million Veco robbery last Monday may have been carried out by different persons belonging to one group.

Supt. Pablo Labra II, chief of the Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Bureau (CIIB), yesterday said the information, though still to be verified, indicates that the group of suspected robber Dindo Ancero and a Mindanao-based robbery gang headed by Ricardo “Jun Halap” Uy may have a hand in the crimes.

Labra said there are “persistent” reports of Uy’s sightings in Bogo town in northern Cebu, where Ancero was a resident, and in Talisay City.
