How this was researched

Kinship from Punto (May 2025). Punsalan was arrested in an NBI entrapment in August 2025 and faces Sandiganbayan warrants issued in November 2025; Punto (May 2026) reports his whereabouts unknown with Vice Mayor Anne Canlas running the municipality. No dismissal or vacancy declaration was located, so he keeps the mayoral record with that caveat.
