The modus operandi "Martilyo Gang" started from 2011 upto 2014. Martilyo gang was also
known as Utap Robbery gang becuase it was famously founded by Sulayman Dimapuro alias
"Jomar or Bryan Utap", and his 18 members,

Including his wife Alamada Warda

11 were already arrested and six members are still at large, namely Edvon Catamura, alias
Uman, Nasdurin Andal, alias Mama, Guiller Mendoza, alias Tagadel, Danny Talib, alias Alex
Dimalin, Tho Magulamas, alias Gadali and Pedro Padao while one was killed.

But.. on May 11, 2017 Sulayman was arrest not with his robbery acts but with illegal drug
pushing.

Sulayman was arrested by illegal drugs pushing. From the statement of Metro Manila police
chief director Oscar Abayalde, that they shifts their illegal activities from robbery to illegal
drug pushing was because of the heat and the awareness of the people in their identity that
have captured by the CCTV.

They choose jewelry stores to rob because jewelry stores display their products at a glass
cabinet, visible for the customers and an open target for the Martilyo Gang.

martilyo gang after him.
