Conspiracy eyed in Isabela electric coop heist

TUGUEGARAO CITY, Philippines – Police are investigating a possible conspiracy in the Isabela Electric Cooperative I after one of its cashiers reportedly took P2 million and tried to make it appear that the cooperative had been robbed last Friday.


Senior Superintendent Sotero Ramos, provincial police director, told The STAR that a lineman and a security guard of the cooperative belied the claims of cashier Julieta Ramil, 35, that a man barged into the office and took the P2 million at knifepoint.

Ramos said investigators have also found Ramil’s collection of P175,000 intact in her drawer while the P2 million was recovered at her home in Angadanan town.

He said Ramil confessed that she took the P2 million.

Ramos said they would also question some officers of the electric cooperative for their failure to deposit the amount in the bank.
