疫情时期与马尼拉竞技场及富豪阿通·安相关的失踪斗鸡爱好者（sabungeros）案，在2025年通过举报人指控重新获得关注。Rappler将其列为年度最大政治故事之一，因为司法部（DOJ）在持续调查中考虑提起绑架和凶杀指控。
吕宋岛各地数十名sabungeros的失踪始于疫情封锁期间，当时爱好者聚集进行斗鸡赌博但随后消失——已提起指控的案件中，六人具体与马尼拉竞技场有关。
最近举报人证词牵涉阿通·安，重燃审查，此前司法部在初步调查后更新可能纳入的指控。官员计划对阿通·安及其同伙提起绑架致死和严重非法拘禁指控，尽管女演员格雷琴·巴雷托因证据不足已被排除。
事实核查确认无针对罗纳德·德拉罗萨参议员的投诉。受害者遗体仍未找到。这一进展凸显危机期间赌博的脆弱性，并质疑政府处理方式，引发菲律宾2025年关键政治辩论。
