The Bounty Hunters

As weak law enforcement allows the Philippines' most wanted fugitives to evade capture, are bounty hunters the answer?



Two of the Philippines' most wanted men were recently arrested after being on the run since 2012, thanks to a tip-off from an informant.

The bounty for their capture was $90,000.

Brothers Joel and Mario Reyes - both former politicians - allegedly masterminded the murder of a journalist.

The Philippines is the only country outside the US that permits bounty hunting. Tracking down dangerous fugitives, bounty hunters pride themselves as informal law enforcers in a country where corrupt officials cover up crime.
