BAGUIO CITY, Philippines – A councilor of La Trinidad, Benguet, who had gone into hiding for more than a month after being tagged in a pyramiding scam, was arrested here last Friday.

Von Ryan Tumpao Tauli, 42, was cornered in front of a restaurant on Session Road by Baguio City and Benguet police intelligence operatives.

Tauli told police he worked in Manila as a gym instructor while his lawyer was settling the complaints against him.

He was accused of collecting sums of money from supposed investors of Riqueza International with promises of huge returns that never came.
