Meanwhile, Ozamiz City Councilor Ricardo “Ardot” Parojinog was arrested in Taiwan. Parojinog is a younger brother of Ozamiz Mayor Reynaldo Parojinog Sr, who was gunned down with 14 others in police search and seizure in his residence in 2017. For the last 10 months, authorities had been trying to track down Parojinog for his alleged involvement in the illegal drugs trade.
