00:00A former POGO worker was arrested in a buy-bust operation in Pasay, two days ago.
00:06Many former POGO workers were also seen buying drugs from them.
00:12This is Niko Wahe's breaking news.
00:18In the parking lot of a mall in Pasay City,
00:21the two foreign nationals were cornered by the authorities.
00:24They were the first ones to sell the so-called shabu.
00:27They were arrested for violation of RA 915.
00:30A Malaysian and a Chinese.
00:32According to the Southern Police District,
00:34the Malaysian national was the target of the first operation,
00:37who was just introduced by Alya Singh.
00:39Based on our confidential informant,
00:42she was the one who was really the one who caused the downfall of her fellow Chinese,
00:47as well as the Nigerian nationals
00:51who were staying here in the condo units in Pasay and Paranaque.
00:58According to their informant,
01:00the group of Alya Singh was included by the authorities,
01:02which is why the buy-bust operation was successful.
01:05Alya Singh's group is the Chinese national known as Alya Chen,
01:09who was also arrested in the operation.
01:11Our upline is that the Malaysian national is a Chinese national.
01:18They could have been together,
01:21that's why they were both caught.
01:23They were both caught by their upline, the Chinese national.
01:28That's why they were both arrested by our operatives.
01:33100 grams of street value worth Php 680,000
01:37were confiscated from two foreign nationals.
01:39According to the SPD, the former POGO worker, Alya Singh...
01:43Since it was announced that the POGO workers here will be banned,
01:51they changed their line of work.
01:56She was the one who started selling illegal drugs.
02:01Most of the POGO workers were former POGO workers.
02:05The SPD is now asking the Bureau of Immigration
02:08if there are any documents of those who were arrested
02:10to be kept in the Philippines.
02:12The Pasay Police are now holding two of them
02:14and we are still trying to get their statement.
