The Bureau of Immigration apprehended in Manila the alleged Japanese leader of a scam group that targeted senior citizens in Japan while operating out of the Philippines.According to a 24 Oras Weekend report by John Consulta, four officers from the BI's Fugitive Search Unit collaborated to subdue and arrest the suspect."Itong grupo na ito, matagal na nating sinusubaybayan. Nahuli na natin ang ibang miyembro nito last year," said BI-FSU Head Chief Rendel Sy.

Authorities recovered a fake identification card with a Filipino name from the suspect."Yung modus nila ay very similar doon sa Luffy group kung saan tatawagan ng mga scammer nila na nakabase dito sa Pilipinas and then may mga local actors sila na ipapadala sa bahay ng biktima," Sy noted.Before the suspect's deportation to Japan, where he faces charges, the BI-FSU plans to investigate whether he has victimized Filipinos.
