Immigration authorities arrested over the weekend a British fugitive, a convicted child sex offender wanted by the United Kingdom police.
A report of the Bureau of Immigration to the Department of Justice showed that the agency’s fugitive search unit arrested Mark Christopher Wyatt, 42, in an operation along Quezon Avenue in Camiling, Tarlac at 4 a.m.
Wyatt, a convicted child sex offender, was arrested as an undesirable alien who poses risk to public safety and security.
The British is also a fugitive from justice for breaching supervision and notification requirements pursuant to the British Sex Offences Act of 2003, according to an official communication received by the Philippine government from International Liaison Officer Stephanie Mc Court of the National Crime Agency of the British embassy in Bangkok.
Wyatt was brought to the BI detention center in Taguig City for deportation proceedings.
