He said the minors, as young as 11 years, were recruited from the Quiapo area in Manila.
“It appears it’s an organized group … The minors were paid P3,000 each,” Remulla said in a statement in Filipino, adding authorities have videos to support this.
Remulla said the organized group told its recruits to go to Malacañang and burn it down.
Acting PNP chief Lt. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr said police investigators continue to gather evidence to ensure airtight cases against the rioters.
Of the minors, 67 are classified as children in conflict with the law (CICL) and 24 as children at risk (CAR).
