Journalist reported 'missing' after covering demolition

Description

K5 News Olongapo reporter Rowena “Weng” Quejada was covering the residents of barangay Anunas as they defended the 73-hectare of land being claimed by Clarkhills Properties Corporation when she was confronted by armed members of the demolition team. Quejada said that at least 12 men, all with guns and wearing bonnets, forced their way inside the gates during the demolition. One of the men pointed a gun at Quejada and told her to stop taking videos. The armed men proceeded to forcibly take Quejada’s cellphone and bag, including all her IDs and her wallet which contained cash.

A Japanese national, who was also a resident in the area, saw the commotion and helped Quejada, hiding her inside his home until the tension outside abated four hours later.
