00:15After receiving the marked money, PNP-CIDG quickly arrested the radio commentator, Roger Simafranca, and his accomplice in Talisay City, Cebu.
00:25The entrapment operation was initiated after the mayor of Talisay City, General Anthony Gullas Jr. complained that the broadcaster was asking for money.
00:34Allegedly, he will release something about the mayor, that's why he asked for money.
00:41The suspect ran to the mayor to fight against Gullas.
00:45The mayor said that the suspect asked for 4 million pesos to cancel his candidature.
00:51But let me be clear, a withdrawal is not important to me. I'm ready to face an election anytime.

01:03He has a friend who called me. I don't know who he is. He said that he withdrew because he was asked for 4 million pesos.
01:14I said no, I will think about it first.
01:19The mayor said that he will not ask for 4 million pesos to cancel his candidature.
01:28The broadcaster and his accomplice will face a robbery extortion complaint.
