Tuguegarao mall worker returns P40-K found in hallway

By Villamor Visaya, Jr. | Philippine News Agency

TUGUEGARAO CITY – A janitor at a mall on Tuesday (Nov. 30) returned the almost P40,000 cash which he found while cleaning the hallways.

Rio Billiones, a utility worker of SM Downtown, turned over the money to the Customer Relations Service Office, which replayed closed-circuit television camera footages in the mall to trace the owner.

It was later found out that Loreto Sammy Cabbuag, brother of John Carlo Cabbuag, a bicycle store owner, accidentally dropped the money.

He said he was supposed to deposit the amount, which was his brother’s store earnings, but lost it.

The two brothers and the mall management lauded Billiones for his “act of kindness and honesty” in returning the money. (PNA) – bny
