The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation and the Philippine National Police conducted a joint operation under a search warrant, raiding a POGO-type establishment in the Freeport Area of Bataan, suspected of human trafficking and fraud.
Authorities rescued about 900 employees of the online gambling company, including 300 foreigners and 600 Filipinos, in collaboration with PAOCC, PNP, AFP, CIDG, and the Bureau of Immigration (under a human trafficking search warrant). According to preliminary information from PAOCC, this farm has been operating for less than two years.
The specific details are still unclear, and PASA continues to follow up on the news.
