00:00One of the foreigners who was arrested in a subdivision in Muntinlupa is being scammed.
00:05According to the authorities, he might be connected to it.
00:08And seven others were arrested in Pogo, which is illegal.
00:11We have first news, Bam Alegre.
00:17Two houses in a gated subdivision in Muntinlupa were invaded by the authorities.
00:22It was said that it was a hideout of eight foreign nationals who were involved in Pogo,
00:26according to the Department of Justice.
00:28In one of the houses, three Chinese were arrested by DOJ, Bureau of Immigration,
00:32and National Bureau of Investigation.
00:35The gadgets used in the digital scam were confiscated.
00:38This is one of the rooms here, and a foreign national was caught
00:42who is still carrying out a scam operation using these devices.
00:47Foreign nationals who are engaged in illegal activity feel safer in gated subdivisions
00:55because the security is tight, it's more clandestine, it's more hidden.
01:00But because we have concerned citizens, we have neighbors that are vigilant,
01:10then there's really no safe place for them anymore.
01:13One of the suspects in Pogo Hub in Porak, Pampanga is still investigating.
01:17One of the suspects is a defense attorney with the help of an NBI interpreter.
01:20He's just a businessman who plans to open a restaurant.
01:23It's okay, it's a musical.
01:25I plan to go back to China next month.
01:27I haven't seen any good business yet.
01:30In another house, four Chinese and one Vietnamese were arrested.
01:34They did not give a statement regarding the arrest.
01:38The authorities of the suspects were informed with the help of some concerned citizens in the community.
01:42According to the DOJ, this is an indication that the world is becoming smaller
01:45with the scam hubs in the Philippines.
01:47While they're still here, they still have at least a few operations.
01:52So this is what we see in subdivisions, small houses, houses like that.
01:58But in our opinion, this is all part of their interpretation of winding down.
02:03The suspects and the process of the Bureau of Immigration are in the custody of the NBI.
02:07Their travel documents.
02:09This is the latest news in Muntinlupa, Bamalegre for GMA Integrated News.
