Police are investigating a report from another inmate who claimed to have overheard Pepito mentioning the word "justice." The inmate stated that last week, Pepito was overheard saying that it didn't matter what happened, as long as they escaped from prison, "Justice" would take care of them.
Pepito was arrested in May in Calubian while riding a red Toyota Innova. Authorities recovered a large number of high-powered firearms and shabu, allegedly originating from Tinago, Albuera.
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of the escapees is urged to contact the Calubian Police Station.
This version differs from the previous one by adding a specific date for the incident and incorporating the information about the escapees' alleged hideout and the connection to "Justice." The style is also more formal, using passive voice and avoiding colloquialisms.
