Four Chinese fugitives are scheduled to be deported this week after being apprehended at XinHuang Network Technologies, a Philippine offshore gaming operator hub in Las Piñas City where a series of anti-cybercrime raids were conducted last week.
According to Philippine National Police spokesperson Police Colonel Jean Fajardo, the fugitives have existing arrest warrants in China for fraud and drug trafficking. The PNP has admitted that the entry of fugitives to the country has been a long-time problem. Law enforcers are coordinating with the Bureau of Immigration to prevent it from repeating. Authorities are also investigating how the foreigners were able to work in the POGO hub
Meanwhile, the camp of rescued POGO workers condemned the alleged abuse carried out by the police during the raid.[If they attempted to escape], is the use of force — excessive force — allowed action in doing so?” the POGO firm’s legal counsel Ananias Vargas said."[The person was on the ground but was still being hit]. What do you call that?"The PNP said proper operational procedures were followed during the raid.
The PNP said charges of violation of the Anti-Human Trafficking Law and Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 have been filed against the five Chinese believed to be involved in irregularities in the POGO hub.
