00:05Women in Mandaluyong for 30 days.

00:07Ong was detained at the House for contempt, but on Thursday, September 19, agitated lawmakers

00:12decided to commit her to the CIW starting September 26.

00:16The trigger, lawyer Ferdinand Topacio, said his client would rather be incorrectional

00:20than be humiliated by the committee.

00:22But Ong explains it was a statement she made to Topacio under stress.

00:26While there is no arrest warrant issued by a court for Ong, she faces criminal investigations

00:30for human trafficking and money laundering.

00:32Ong is an officer of the Whirlwind real estate firm that leased its compound to Lucky South

00:3799, a pogo rated over allegations of human trafficking and torture.

00:41Ong appears in many documents as the Lucky South representative, but the 24-year-old
