MANILA, Philippines — A woman accused of co-founding the Wahana investment scam, which reportedly stole millions of pesos from investors, was arrested in Quezon City on Monday.

 

Maria Raissa Yap, 34, was apprehended by agents of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group at her hideout in a subdivision in Barangay West Fairview at around 3:45 p.m., according to Col. Randy Glenn Silvio of the CIDG’s National Capital Region field office.

 

Silvio said the operation stemmed from an intelligence information from their counterparts in the Armed Forces of the Philippines that Yap was hiding in Quezon City.
