00:00Arrested in a visa consultancy office in Manila are those who are pretending to be operatives of PAOK.
00:06They are begging for around 1 million pesos in exchange for their freedom from the last fugitive POGO workers.
00:13They also have Philippine passports.
00:15Salima was arrested. Reference.
00:20What is this? What is this?
00:22I didn't accept it, sir.
00:24What is this? What is this?
00:25I didn't accept it, sir.
00:27What did you not accept?
00:28I didn't accept it, sir. I didn't accept anything.
00:31When the targets accepted the marked money entered by the operatives of PAOK, PNP, CIDG, and AFP,
00:36this travel and visa consultancy office in Intramuros, Manila last night,
00:40they pretended to be PAOK members, Bureau of Immigration and NBI,
00:45and promised to release the arrested foreign POGO workers in exchange for 1 million pesos.
00:52They also said that they can remove the names from the deportation lists,
00:56even from the blacklist of NBI.
00:58The one who was arrested was Erah.
01:00Her name is not her real name.
01:01She immediately received 1.1 million pesos in exchange for her freedom from her Chinese fiancé.
01:08The parents of her fiancé hired their house in China just to pay.
01:15But she was forced to do so.
01:17And because of the stress, she was taken.
01:19How much did you give in total?
01:21900,000.
01:23900,000 in total?
01:25Yes.
01:26And then what happened?
01:28I am also worried about my fiancé's parents because they were given a month to pay for their house in China.
01:37The suspects also asked for 1.1 million pesos from NICE
01:41to release and deport the wife of the arrested in the raid in Paranaque.
01:46But the problem is that it was not POGO but NBI who arrested her.
01:51They told me to wait because POGO was the one who arrested my fiancé.
01:55They said that POGO was holding her.
01:57That's why I don't have to worry.
01:58I just believed them.
02:00The female suspects in the Bureau of Immigration were blacklisted and banned because of illegal transactions.
02:06We also noticed that the offers of various agencies were leaked on social media.
02:14This office is a visa consultancy firm.
02:17But they offer extra services.
02:19That is the arrangement of various documents for the victims.
02:25You can see here the various documents, passports, and alien certificates of registration.
02:32All of these were pre-processed by the authorities for the case they are preparing for the arrested suspects.
02:39There were also birth certificates and marriage certificates from PSA, PNP, and NBI Clearance,
02:46as well as LTO driver's license.
02:48But what's more disturbing is that the Philippine passport they obtained had a foreign face but the name was already Filipino.
02:56There were names that were signed by various agencies.
03:00The investigation that needs to be done here is from the agencies concerned.
03:05This is PSA, LTO, DOLE, and the Immigration.
03:10Definitely, they can go inside and out of those offices.
03:15They can move around because they have IDs.
03:19They are really employees of that agency.
03:23The two arrested suspects are facing several complaints of robbery extortion, usurpation of person in authority, estafa, and grave coercion.
03:32They refused to give a statement.
03:34For GMA Integrated News, Salima Rafra, Nakatutok, 24 Horas.
