The official detailed that 57 of the 62 motorcycles seized from the former Canadian Olympic athlete Ryan Wedding and transferred to the institute last July were sold. "From the sale of these 57 motorcycles alone, we got 70 million pesos, almost 71, leaving us five for the next auction on November 27," she explained during her remarks.
