Cops Rescue Filipino-Chinese Trader Jefferson Cheng, Kill All 7 Kidnappers in a 12-Hour Operation

11 July 2009

In a phenomenal 12-hour rescue effort, police operatives freed Filipino-Chinese trader Jefferson Cheng from his kidnappers who were all killed in the operation, 3 of them in Cabuyao, Laguna and 4 in Imus, Cavite.

Jefferson Cheng was abducted around 9:25am Friday by the kidnappers in Bacoor, Cavite together with his driver, Florante Cariñosa, who was later freed in Las Piñas.  Cheng was then taken aboard his van to an undisclosed location.  

About four hours after the abduction, Cheng's son, Johnny, received a call from the kidnappers asking for a P20 million ransom. It was after this that Johnny reported the kidnapping to the police who, six and half hours later, succeeded in locating Jefferson in a safehouse in Cabuyao, Laguna and freeing him after a 15-minute gunfight which killed three kidnappers.  The 4 other suspected members of the kidnap group perished in a shootout with police in Imus, Cavite early Saturday morning.
