00:00A fire broke out in Legazpi, Albay.
00:04There was also an explosion heard.
00:06There was no electricity in some places there.
00:08We will bring to you the cause of the fire later.
00:14Another illegal Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator, or POGO, was discussed by the authorities.
00:20They included in the POGO's list in Pampanga more than 100 foreign nationals,
00:25including some Filipino staff.
00:27Here are the hot news from the 5 referendums, exclusive.
00:35These foreigners left Pampanga in a hurry.
00:38They were caught by an illegal POGO,
00:41and the operation was heard by the authorities.
00:46If you are a foreigner in the Philippines,
00:48you are required to bring your passport at all times.
00:52That is why the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission,
00:56PNP SAF, CIDG, and local police in this compound,
01:00only caught a few in the target area.
01:04We were expecting more foreign nationals here.
01:08So unfortunately, the information may have leaked.
01:13That's why we only caught less than 100.
01:16We were expecting almost 1,000 foreign nationals here.
01:19158 Chinese, Vietnamese, Malaysians, and other nations were rescued in the raid.
01:25There were also Filipino staff,
01:27while three security personnel were being rescued.
01:30A search warrant was issued in the compound
01:32based on the reports of scamming activities,
01:35torture, kidnapping, and sex trafficking.
01:39The reports that we received,
01:42the initial report for rescue was,
01:44there were people being tortured here,
01:46baseball bats were being thrown,
01:48and people were being raped here.
01:50We also have a video of a young woman
01:54dancing here and being raped by the bosses.
01:58According to the POC,
01:59it is still being applied to obtain a license from the PAG or the POGO.
02:03That is why the POC is wondering why it has been operating for more than a year.
02:11Meanwhile,
02:11the POGO workers who ran away were stopped by Clark.
02:16Along with the foreign nationals caught in the POGO,
02:21they were immediately transported to Manila.
02:24They were immediately sent to the Immigration Profiling and Processing.
02:27They were also talked to by the prosecutors of the Department of Justice
02:31so that the other victims can be investigated
02:34and they can find out what they did to the POGO.
