The Department of Justice (DOJ), in a 23-page resolution obtained by The STAR, dismissed the kidnapping and serious illegal detention cases against Lt. Col. Ryan Jay Orapa, Lt. Jesus Menez, Staff Sergeants Roy Pioquinto, Robert Allan Raz and Denar Roda and Corporals Alric Natividad, Troy Paragas, Ronald John Lanaria, Ronald Montibon, Reynaldo Seno, Ruscel Solomon and Christal Rhine Rosita.

The DOJ also dismissed the cases against the police officers for violation of Republic Act 1035, or the Anti-Enforced or Involuntary Disappearance Act, and perjury.

The cases were filed by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) following an investigation into the kidnapping and disappearance of siblings of Gio and Mico Mateos, Garry Magreo Jr. and Ronaldo Anonuevo on April 13, 2021 in Alfonso town and Dasmariñas City in Cavite.
