A 25-year-old Chinese national was arrested for illegal detention in Muntinlupa City.
Employer Qian Jing was the subject of a complaint from his Malaysian worker.
In August 2022, the victim started working as a POGO employee but later on, the suspect stopped his salary and deprived him of his liberty. The victim informed his mother through phone call, who in turn reported the incident to the Malaysian authorities.
A joint rescue operation was launched through the efforts of Malaysian Royal Police, DSOU-SPD, DID-SPD, DMFB-SPD and Muntinlupa City Police Station.
Likewise, seven foreigners (Chinese and Malaysian employees) signified their intention to return to their countries while 26 other foreigners (Chinese, Vietnamese, Indonesian and Malaysian employees) were invited to undergo verification through the National Police Clearance System.
“The charges are now being prepared against the employer. Tulong-tulong po ang ating kapulisan at iba pang law enforcers sa labas ng bansa sa kasong ito. We have seen how this synergy saved the lives of the victims from further exposing them from threat and danger,” PNP Chief Gen. Rodolfo Azurin Jr. said.
