The Manila Police District (MPD) Special Mayor's Reaction Team (SMaRT) identified the suspect as Diofre Lara Sales.
In a report, MPD SMaRT chief Police Major Rosalino Ibay Jr. said the operation stemmed from a complaint letter submitted to Mayor Francisco "Isko Moreno" Domagoso.
Ibay said the letter stated that the incident occurred last September 27 at Victoria Court, Bagong Barrio, Caloocan City, where the suspect allegedly lured the victim with consent.
This prompted the MPD SMaRT to conduct a follow-up operation to look for the suspect.
MPD SMaRT officers arrested Sales at about 2:00 pm on Thursday during a follow-up operation at Puregold Tayuman in Manila.
Sales was arrested after his orange Nissan Navarra bearing the Plate Number OYN 99 was flagged down by MPD SMaRT officers.
Ibay said the suspect will be facing charges for violation of Article 343 or Consented Abduction under the Revised Penal Code as well as violation of Republic Act No. 8353 or the Anti-Rape Law.
Meanwhile, Ibay said that an initial investigation showed that Sales also allegedly raped two other high school students.
The suspect was presented to the Manila City Mayor following his arrest.
In defense, Sales said: "Hindi po ako masamang tao. Temptation lang po ito."
Domagoso then reiterated his warning to all criminals: "Ayoko lahat ng kriminal. Sinabi ko na sa inyo, may gobyerno na ang Lungsod ng Maynila. Umalis na kayo dito."
