00:00The people of the Bureau of Immigration, or BI, who were involved in the kidnapping of a Korean national who escaped last week, were fired from their jobs and cases.
00:12According to BI Spokesperson Donna Sandoval, based on their CCTV footage and their investigation,
00:19the people of the Bureau of Immigration, or BI, who were involved in the kidnapping of a Korean national, were fired from their jobs and cases.
00:26Because of this, two contractuals were immediately removed while the case of a permanent employee in the Department of Justice, where many cases were filed, was raised.
00:38The kidnapper was immediately arrested on Sunday morning in Pampanga, five days after he escaped.
00:45According to Sandoval, this is possibly the case of the DEMANDA-ME scheme, where the detainees are looking for a way to sue themselves
00:56so that they can stay in the Philippines for a long time and not be deported immediately to face the case in their own country.
01:04Meanwhile, BI assured that their people will not just be fired from their jobs, that they will be proven guilty of illegal activities.
01:14Instead, they will also be sued for serving a lesson and not being an example for their employees.
01:21Commissioner Viado has a one-strike policy.
01:25If he sees that there are people involved in illegal activities, he will immediately remove them from our hands.
01:32He wants to modernize our systems so that there will be no more opportunities for corruption.
01:41Because our processing is electronic, it will greatly help to reduce people-to-people interaction, which is an opening for corruption.
