Bilyonaryo gambling tycoon Charlie “Atong” Ang paid a surprise visit to the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) headquarters Thursday (March 10) and appealed for fairness as it investigates the disappearance of 34 cockfighting enthusiasts.

Ang attended the Senate committee on public order and dangerous drugs’ investigation on e-sabong last week. He was invited by senators over reports that some of the missing sabungeros were last seen in the cockpit arenas he operates.

Ang claimed there was a “conspiracy” to pin him down for the cockfighting enthusiasts’ disappearance since he corners 90 percent of the e-sabong business.
The businessman revealed that he earns P3 billion monthly from online cockfighting bets.
