00:00More than 30 Indonesians were rescued in Pasay who were illegally abducted by the Chinese.
00:05In Paranaque, a Chinese man was abducted and tortured by his fellow countrymen.
00:11The arrested suspects are said to be connected to FOGO.
00:14Jomer Apresto brought you this exclusive news.
00:20What's wrong with you?
00:21Don't do it again.
00:25Don't do it again.
00:28What's wrong with you?
00:29A confidential informant sent this video to the people of the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission or PAOC.
00:37Two Chinese nationals abducted and tortured the man in the video, who is also Chinese.
00:43A few moments later, the authorities found the victim brought to an expensive condo unit in Paranaque City.
00:50The Chinese man was rescued in Pasay and Bali.
00:55We got the information that he was here in 1902.
00:58Then, when we checked, it was positive that the victim was here.
01:02He said that the two suspects were hiding in the rooms.
01:08The suspect who was suspected to have a gun in the video was arrested.
01:16In this case, the PAOC forces opened this room where the other suspect was hiding.
01:29He was also caught by the authorities.
01:31Here in this room, the suspects say that the Chinese national was tortured.
01:37Some of the equipment, such as these knives and weapons, were recovered by the PAOC.
01:45According to the PAOC, the reason why the victim was kidnapped and tortured is not yet clear.
01:51But there is a possibility that the suspects and a member of a large group were involved in illegal FOGO.
01:57The kidnapping of the Chinese nationals in the area of Southern Metro Manila is already rampant.
02:04The reason is that sometimes they are being tortured, sometimes they are in debt.
02:08One of the suspects is under Immigration Biometrics and they will be turned over to the police for investigation.
02:14They have no statement.
02:16In this dark area of a house in Pasay City,
02:20the PAOC, the Indonesian National, was able to reach the people of the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission.
02:26They tried to escape, but they were caught by the authorities.
02:31According to the PAOC, this is a rescue operation for the Indonesian nationals
02:35who were employed by FOGO and were illegally detained by their chief Chinese national.
02:41They were forced to get their passports so that they could not return to their country.
02:46We received a report that there are Indonesians who are being held against their will here.
02:51We were able to give priority to the Indonesian Embassy when the Interpol arrived.
02:57In total, 34 Indonesians were involved in the operation while two Chinese were arrested.
03:04One of them is a former member of the People's Liberation Army
03:09and the boss of the people who were detained.
03:12He was shown a uniform of the People's Liberation Army.
03:15He had a kidnapping case before and he had a warrant to be arrested for kidnapping.
03:21Now, he was shown that his case has been dismissed.
03:24But we will find out...
03:25While the other one was arrested, he was a finance officer there.
03:29Based on the information obtained by the PAOC,
03:31it is almost certain that FOGO is where the Indonesian nationals operate.
03:36But the PAOC does not believe this because some of the people they talked to
03:41were almost receiving their salary yesterday.
03:43It is also possible that the victims were brought to another FOGO hub.
03:47According to the PAOC,
03:48several Chinese nationals were brought there to go to Cambodia.
03:53But they need to pay to return their passports.
03:57The problem, according to the PAOC,
03:59is that when the victims arrive there, they will become scammers.
04:03For now, they will request voluntary repatriation to the Indonesian Embassy
04:07to give one-way travel pass to the victims.
