Where could Jed Patrick Mabilog be?
The last time the country heard of him was at the height of President
Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s exposes against him, and he fled to Japan supposedly to
be part of an international conference in 2017. He has not returned to the
country since.

That is why in a televised speaking engagement in Davao City the
President asked the US embassy to explain as to why Mabilog managed to slip
into the United States mainland even if he had been tagged in alleged
activities relating of drugs in his home province of Iloilo.
Duterte said they have furnished the US Ambassador to the Philippines Sung
Kim about Mabilog’s alleged illegal drug activities.
“I’d like to inform the US embassy, I thought I gave you a list noon
(before). If that mayor managed to slip out, I’d like to ask the embassy, why
did it… You asked for a list and I gave one to your ambassador so that Filipino
addicts who would go there only to destroy your country will be denied visas,”
he said.
“I think I remember I gave you a copy and the name of this mayor,
because he’s so famous, was there definitely. Now, I’m asking why is he there
in America?” he said.
But he said Mabilog could also be hiding in Canada.
“If indeed he is in America. Or if he’s not in America, I’m sorry but
maybe in Canada,” Duterte added.
Since Mabilog’s AWOL status, the office of Ombudsman later dismissed him
from office for serious dishonesty.
