The noose is tightening.

As the investigation surrounding the mysterious disappearance of more than 40 sabungeros (cockfighting bettors) continues to intensify, sources close to law enforcement have revealed that several members of the notorious “Alpha Group” — the alleged special unit behind the abductions — are now undergoing tattoo removal procedures in a desperate attempt to erase identifying marks.

Even more shocking? Reports now link the girlfriend of one key Alpha member as a possible co-conspirator, allegedly helping the suspects move funds, create alibis, and destroy evidence.


🕵️‍♂️ THE TATTOOS: THE ALPHA MARK

According to insiders, members of the Alpha Group — a covert, organized unit reportedly formed to carry out “clean-up jobs” for powerful figures — shared a distinctive tattoo pattern, often minimalist designs that symbolized loyalty, rank, and kill count.

“These weren’t your typical aesthetic tattoos. They were coded — discreet symbols, coordinates, and initials only members understood,” said an NBI insider.

Now, with pressure mounting, multiple members are allegedly undergoing laser tattoo removal in remote clinics — some even resorting to burning or self-mutilation to avoid future identification.


💃 THE GIRLFRIEND: FROM LOVER TO COORDINATOR?

Authorities are also looking closely into the girlfriend of a certain “Alias Bogs,” a mid-level Alpha handler who is said to have coordinated extraction and disposal teams.

The unnamed woman, believed to be in her late 20s, is now tagged as a “person of interest,” accused of:

Booking anonymous travel tickets

Creating false social media alibis

Storing burner phones and SIM cards

Receiving encrypted payments linked to surveillance jobs

“She may not have pulled the trigger, but she paved the way for many of the group’s movements,” said one intelligence officer.


🔥 NAGKAKALAGASAN NA ANG MGA ALPHA

According to another source, internal fractures within the Alpha Group are becoming apparent. Some former members, fearing capture, have gone rogue and are allegedly negotiating immunity in exchange for information.

“They know the group’s structure. They know where the bodies are — maybe literally,” said a high-level DOJ official.

A few have reportedly sent feelers through lawyers and intermediaries, offering to turn over names, locations, and even footage that could finally crack the case wide open.


📱 SOCIAL MEDIA ERUPTS: “TATTOOS CAN FADE — BUT TRUTH WON’T”

Netizens wasted no time reacting to the news:

“Kung wala kayong tinatago, bakit nagpapatanggal ng tattoo?”
“Your skin might forget — but the families of the missing won’t.”
“Tag and trace every last one of them.”

Hashtags like #AlphaDismantled, #TattooClue, and #JusticeForSabungeros began trending within hours of the leak.


⚖️ NBI, PNP, AND DOJ MOVE IN

With mounting public pressure and new leads coming to light, agencies have recommitted to full-scale joint investigations, including:

Tracking all known tattoo parlors and removal clinics within suspected provinces

Reviewing old arrest photos and mugshots of tattooed suspects

Issuing subpoenas to the girlfriends, wives, and relatives of suspected Alpha members

“We are aware of the attempt to erase evidence,” said DOJ Sec. Boying Remulla. “But they can’t erase guilt. And we’re not backing down.”


🧠 EXPERTS WARN: “THIS IS ORGANIZED, BUT CRACKING”

Organized crime experts say Alpha Group’s coordinated retreat — from tattoo removals to digital wipeouts — is a clear sign that the empire is beginning to crumble.

“Once you start hiding the brand that once made you powerful, you’re no longer in control,” said crime analyst Atty. Jason Parilla.

He adds that tattoo removals, while cosmetic, won’t save members from DNA, digital trails, and human witnesses.


🕯️ FINAL THOUGHTS: INK FADES. But Justice Doesn’t.

As the investigation continues to unfold, and with more former allies turning on each other, the once-feared Alpha Group may soon stand face to face with the very justice they thought they could outrun.

Because no amount of laser removal…
No burned skin…
No fake girlfriend alibis…

Can erase the names of the missing. Or the cries of those still waiting.
