00:00 Good evening, Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
00:05 Another Pogo Hub where the topic of sex trafficking, kidnapping and scamming is discussed.
00:13 This time, it's about the PORAC in Pampanga.
00:16 It seems that they are still inactive, so they tried to escape more than 200 Filipinos and foreign employees, but they were also stopped.
00:23 As for the investigators, how did the Pogo that was previously discussed and now has high-level security operate again?
00:32 From PORAC, Salima Restau, exclusive live.
00:37 Mel, Vicky, Emil, the police force is guarding and guarding this Pogo Hub in PORAC, Pampanga.
00:48 According to the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission, this Pogo is involved in human trafficking, sex trafficking, harassment, torture and kidnapping, and also scamming activities.
01:01 [POLICE RECORDING]
01:04 [POLICE RECORDING]
01:19 They got this yesterday in a Pogo Hub in PORAC, Pampanga.
01:26 They were not able to escape. They were just trying to escape and Alice was in a hurry.
01:31 After they heard the operation that was being conducted.
01:35 If you are a foreigner in the Philippines, you are required to bring your passport at all times.
01:40 That's why when the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission, PNPSAF, CIDG and other local police operated last night, only a few were able to reach the target location.
01:51 We were expecting more foreign nationals here. Unfortunately, the information might have leaked.
01:58 That's why we only managed to reach less than 100.
02:01 In the city of Clark, seven cars, including Lulan, were stopped by the authorities.
02:07 157 Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Malaysians and Burmese were arrested.
02:13 One of them was a kidnapping victim.
02:16 50 Filipino Pogo staff and security were arrested.
02:21 According to the police, the Pogo members were involved in scamming activities, kidnapping, kidnapping and sex trafficking.
02:27 There were people being tortured here. Baseball bats were being thrown and people were being raped here.
02:34 We have a video of a woman who was not a Pogo member, who was dancing here and was being raped by the bosses.
02:41 She was being used sexually.
02:43 We're hoping that we can rescue our subject woman.
02:47 She was being sold and being bid online.
02:50 Whoever wins in online bidding will be available for sexual services at any given time.
03:01 Pogo Hub was involved in the search warrant from Malolos RTC Branch 14.
03:06 The compound is located in 10 hectares.
03:09 The building has 46 floors, including villas.
03:14 This is a high-level security facility because there are razor wires on the walls and the CCTVs are very sharp.
03:22 This is being run by Locker South 99 despite the lack of a license.
03:29 They don't have a license to operate, provisional or otherwise.
03:32 So we were wondering why they are operating. They are still applying, so why are they operating?
03:37 According to the PAOK, the so-called Pogo Hub was raided in 2022 under the name Lucky 99 Outsourcing.
03:45 It was ordered to be closed by DILG Secretary Benhur Abalos.
03:50 It is still being investigated on how it was operated again.
03:53 At present, the rescued Pogo workers are in Pasay.
03:57 The refugees will be sent to Immigration Profiling and Processing.
04:01 They will also be talked to, including the Filipinos, to receive an explanation.
04:05 GMA Integrated News is also collecting information on Lucky South 99.
04:10 While the landowner who owns the compound is being held,
04:13 it was clear that this is the subject of the execution of the won ejectment case.
04:18 As for the company that is still operating the compound, they have nothing to do with the Pogo operation.
04:23 It is still being run or sub-leasing.
04:27 Aside from that, it is also being investigated on how the Pogo workers were able to make the raid.
04:33 We are still trying to get the statement of the Porac Police and LGU about this.
04:38 Vicky, after the screening of the Bureau of Immigration,
04:46 the refugees will be sent to the prison where they will not be able to show their visas and permits
04:52 to stay in the country, in the so-called deportation proceedings.
04:56 Meanwhile, Vicky, seven Filipinos and one Chinese woman were rescued here in Pogo Hub today.
05:02 The Chinese woman is a kidnap victim, while the seven Filipinos are victims of illegal detention.
05:10 The PAOK now found out that the one of the tortured victims they are looking for is already at home.
05:16 That is the latest from Porac in Pampanga.
05:19 Vicky.
05:20 Thank you very much, Salima Refran.
05:22 Thank you.
