Dugo Dugo Gang - how come they’re still at large??
Dugo Dugo Gang (Dugo = blood)
I couldn’t believe that this happened to us today. It frightened me and my brother who were left at home. They really did know all our names. They knew who left the house today as well. They knew that my brother and I were still upstairs. They knew a lot.
I got suspicious when our landline was hung the whole time i went downstairs a couple of times and that our maid said it was my mom and another girl together. If it was really my mom, then why isnt she looking for me? I tried snatching the phone from her after an hour (yes an hour cos our maid doesnt know where to look for that white envelope full of dollars) and the caller was not responding to me well and even snapped back at me that she doesnt want to talk to me - only to the maid. When our maid told us to calm down after I hung up on the girl, she started to cry that my brother-in-law hit a kid, he was in police custody, my mom was bleeding and smashed her mouth and cant speak, and my sister was in the hospital too. The caller made our maid look for money, specifically dollars in all my mom’s belongings and told her not to tell me and my brother (by our names) cos my mom doesnt want us to get involved with the police etc. Most likely knowing my parents just got back from Dubai a month ago, and so did I a week before - they knew there might be money in the house. We kept calling everyone mentioned but their mobile phones are out of reach. That was a bad sign.
What me and my brother thought was that the accident was not real. But maybe our family was in trouble - kidnapped or held-up. We didn’t know what to do. I started to cry but stopped and tried to be strong. Thinking of a plan. But all i did was keep rummaging through my luggage when I’m not looking for anything. We both got dressed and decided my brother would go out, look around the area as our family only went to The Podium Mall near our Village and I stay at home to wait for another call. However after much tries, we were able to contact our family. They were surprised as my brother wanted to hear all their voices and making sure they are all together. They immediately went home and I started to cry out of nervousness and relief as well. After calming up a bit. We all decided to leave the house for the time being. My sister and her family went home then parents, brother, maid and me went to my cousin’s house.
back home now but honestly, im still not comfortable in the house today. knowing that people had our family and home under surveillance 
The police told us that these are common in Metro Manila and they strike anywhere — from gated subdivisions to communities without security guards. Before they make the call, they put your household under surveillance for several days.
