well folks sorry it has been a while.......I have some bad bad news the short story is we never did get to assay that gold bar! in fact trying to get even a small piece off of mindoro was a headache, and since we couldn't get it off via the ferry we had to have one of my fiancé uncles bring us a boat. I was a bit miffed at the fact he brought 3 guys with him without telling us claiming they were or used to be army and that they were his bodyguards. At that point in time i was going to be at sea for two weeks or so so i just thought this was going to be a simple drop off at manila procedure. I went against my better judgement and had her bring the whole bar of gold as well as the two pieces they had cut off , because after two months of trying to get it off mindoro after paying alot of my hard earned money had made me a bit impatient. So my fiance and one of her uncles who has helped digging the gold since the begining, the uncle with the boat from Davao and the 3 extra guys embarked.
Now a day long boat ride soon turned into five days because of engine problems half way through the crossing as well as thats when Typhoon Nanmadol decided to hit. Long story short they made it to manila intact but i had run out of funds to pay for gasoline so that her uncle and the men could return.
Great i thought now she will take it to Philtech to get it assayed "nope" thats when her uncle and three friends decided that we should take it to Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas "i dont recall why they thought they had any say" Now i wouldnt mind it going to Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas but u need certificates with the gold as well as alot of other criteria and you cant sell it without a middleman if you are not a mining company ect. Plus i am sure they would ask alot of questions and we would be followed from then on. So they basicly wouldnt let us take it to Philtech on the excuse that Philtech would kill us..............Ludicrous!!!! The bastards were just stalling so they could plan to steal it and i knew it for sure then.
I was helpless!!! they were not letting my fiance or the uncle that came with her leave basicly holding them hostage.
I told her to call her papa and have him come to manila ....once this bad uncle found out that he was comming that night he druged her and his brother and tied them up and beat them until they told him and his friends where they had hid the gold in their room then they stole it and took off to the boat.
A day later my "6 month PREGNANT fiance and her uncle freed themselves" and filed a report with the police that her uncle had tied them up and beat them and stolen a large sum of money.
but alas by the time my fiance got out of the hospital and borrowed money to fly to davao since that is where this bandit of an uncle lives his house was empty and nobody knew where they had gone
Then i asked them to check the army records for these three men ....again no record, then they checked the police records........sure enough one of them was a cop we got his adress and went there it was four hours from Davao......again empty they left most everything even their dog. Now its a cold trail we have no choice but to speed up our efforts with our dig site to take more gold so we will have money to put bounties on their heads. There are no words to describe my anguish at the sight of my fiances bruises and the possibility of losing our unborn daughter not to mention the hard labor of six months disappearing. And while this happened i was trapped stuck at sea and could not do anything.
Thank god they don't know where are land is there nor do they even know we dug it up, we told them we were getting it assayed and sold for some mangyans.
All this because i was tanga and didnt just send her with 600 grams worth to manila to get assayed and sold so it could fund the rest of our project!!!
I dont even want the gold back i just want their f@#*ing heads for what they did to my real treasure.
