00:11The Justice Department is also preparing the Immigration Lookout Bulletin against them.
00:16Sally Maref has been found guilty.
00:18This is Maref.
00:22A formal complaint of Qualified Human Trafficking was filed against the suspended mayor of Bambantarlac, Alice Buo, and 13 other members of the Pogo group.
00:33In the complaint, Buo's alias, Buo Waping, was included.
00:37The name was also given to Buo.
00:39This is not just one piece of evidence, but multiple pieces of evidence like the fact that he applied.
00:46In the former NOLO, the NOLO from the local government, his involvement in the Lessor Company was also revealed.
00:52His name was also included in the documents that were found in the Pogo compound.
00:57Buo's business partners, including a fugitive in China and two members of the big money laundering case in Singapore,
01:05as well as officers and incorporators of Balfou Land Development, Hongsheng Gaming, and Zunyuan Technology, are also being complained.
01:13The former Technology and Livelihood Resource Center Deputy Director General, Dennis Cunanan,
01:19also complained that there is a connection with Pogo in Porac based on the documents obtained from Pogo in Bamban.
01:27After piecing together the pieces of evidence, we concluded and we decided that he is part of the grand conspiracy to commit labor trafficking.
01:37When the Pogo compound was discovered in Bamban, not only scamming activities were discovered.
01:43Victims of drug and human trafficking were also rescued.
01:47Almost 800 Filipinos and Filipinos were detained inside.
01:52The DOJ is now preparing the Immigration Lookout Bulletin Order against Buo, Cunanan, and 12 other respondents in the complaint.
02:00Anyone who is accused of being a criminal has a flight risk, especially if he has resources.
02:06According to Mayor Buo's camp, he is ready to confront the complaints.
02:10Even though they do not have a copy, they insist that there is no sufficient evidence.
02:15The connection with the companies or individuals is not enough to condemn him for human trafficking.
02:21GMA Integrated News is still obtaining Cunanan's statement.
02:25Aside from Porac and Bamban, there are other places where illegal Pogo hubs are possible.
02:32Maybe there are four local government officials who are helping us.
02:36We are intensifying our fight against this illegal Pogo.
02:40For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nima Refrain.
02:43Stay tuned for 24 Hours.
02:47According to Cunanan's lawyer, they cannot comment yet because they have not received the copy of the complaint.
02:53He does not know how he got involved in human trafficking.
02:57He is just a consultant and is a part of Pogo's daily operations.
