“We are investigating all possible angles as well as  background of  suspect,” Lt. Col. Imelda Reyes, public information officer of Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) told reporters CIDG arrested  Chinese man for alleged possession of firearm and communication hacking devices in Makati City.

CIDG is looking into background of Yuhang Liu to determine if he is working as  spy for China.

Liu was apprehended by CIDG agents in Barangay San Isidro at around 4:19 in the morning.

Suspect’s arrest came after police received  reportt he was threatening Filipino, whose identity was withheld, at the corner of Finlandia and Codornico streets.

Probers said Liu allegedly coerced  victim to deliver communication hacking devices to his residence in Parañaque City.

Suspect  allegedly instructed victim to move to different vital installations and hack or access  international mobile equipment identities or IMEIs and other electronic devices.

Liu was taken into police custody after he yielded  9 mm pistol.

When police searched suspect’s vehicle, several gadgets and electronic equipment were found, including  antenna system, battery units,  solar inverter,  radio receiver and transmitter,  router,  computer tablet,  computer laptop and cell phones.

CIDG conducted  follow-up operation at  suspect’s condominium unit on Pacific Avenue in Parañaque City and seized  aerial drone,  inverter unit,  computer central processing unit,  portable power station and other gadgets.

Liu vehemently denied  he is  spy for China. He replied in affirmative when asked if he has been staying in the country for five to six years.

Reyes did not go into details, but said  suspect had been under surveillance by  police and  Armed Forces of the Philippines.

Reyes  have tapped experts to assist them in  probe regarding  gadgets and communication equipment seized from Liu.

“It’s alarming…why is he in possession of such gadgets?” Reyes said.

CIDG said complaints for violating Republic Act 10591 or Comprehensive Law on Firearms and Ammunition Act and RA 8484, also known as  Access Devices Regulation Law, are being readied against  suspect.
