April 1, 2025March 28, 2025carlocarrasco

Recently in Parañaque City, elements of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) rescued several minors and arrested two suspects for offering the said minors to clients in exchange for money, according to a GMA Network news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the GMA news report. Some parts in boldface…

Eleven minors, aged 14 to 16, who were allegedly being sexually exploited were rescued by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Human Trafficking Division in Parañaque City.

According to a 24 Oras report by John Consulta on Thursday, two suspects, believed to be pimps, were arrested for allegedly offering the minors to clients for P2,000. The suspects reportedly lured the minors into their services, bringing them to public establishments or restaurants, where customers could choose from among them.

Tensions escalated during the operation when some of the minors attempted to flee, but they were rescued by authorities. The transactions were reportedly carried out through messaging apps and text messages. The minors were promised free snacks and a “good time”, only to later be coerced into providing sexual favors.

“They would be tricked into libre ng merienda and a good time. And later on after the fact of the sexual favor, bibigay na yung bayad. Niloloko and then later on they would be tricked into going out with the customer. Nakakabahala ito dahil unang-una minors ang binibenta dito. Hindi lang na very public na ‘yung pangyayari kung saan-saan,” said NBI spokesperson Regional Director Ferdinand Lavin.

They are currently under the custody of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) to undergo counseling.

In relation with the big raid on an office build in Parañaque City that resulted in the apprehension of hundreds of suspects, the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC) announced that it has filed charges against several foreign nationals who were among the many suspects arrested, according to a Philippine News Agency (PNA) news article.

Charges of qualified human trafficking were filed by the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC) against 20 foreign nationals apprehended in the Feb. 20 raid of a scam hub in Parañaque City.

PAOCC Executive Director Gilbert Cruz said the raided Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator (POGO) hub at the ATI building, in front of the Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX), ran investment and love scams using foreign nationals.

A total of 435 POGO workers, including 148 foreign nationals, were arrested at the Chinese-run hub.

“We conducted the inquest for the foreign nationals operating the POGO hub here at PITX and we have filed charges against 20 of them,” Cruz said in an interview.

“Qualified trafficking, because you can clearly see that they facilitated the employment of individuals in this POGO hub to work here for a long time.”

Cruz said the scam hub also had several other violations, including the lack of the necessary permits to operate.

Among the complainants were three Vietnamese women.

“These Vietnamese women were the models they used to attract investors and then after you fall in love, that’s it, they will invite you to invest in cryptocurrency,” Cruz said.
