      Not OP, but I looked her up:

      She’s a “former Philippines mayor, accused of ties to Chinese criminal syndicates and money laundering” (Reuters). I guess the tech part is the SIM card thing?

        So at this point if a piece of technology is used at any point during the news story it should be on here?

        It’s hardly news that police can track phones is it, I remember watching CSI and them doing that back in the '90s.
