COTABATO CITY, Philippines (Updated 3:40 p.m.)  — The Regional Highway Patrol Unit-Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao recovered Monday a stolen vehicle from the deputy police chief of Marawi City.

Police Col. Hesran Mojica, director of the RHPU-BARMM, told reporters Tuesday that police have impounded a white Ford Everest seized from Police Capt. Santos Monares.

Mojica said Monares, deputy chief of the Marawi City police, told them that he merely bought the SUV from a captain assigned to Police Regional Office-10 in Cagayan de Oro City.

Mojica said the recovered SUV is owned by someone from Sta. Ana in Manila.

"It was reported as stolen," Mojica said.

He said a criminal case will be filed against Menares at the Office of the City Prosecutor in Marawi City.
