FOUR suspected illegal recruiters and human traffickers offering fake jobs as abroad were arrested in a joint operation by operatives of the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) and the Philippine National Police.
DMW Secretary Hans Leo Cacdac identified the suspects as Rajib Ibrahim Dedik, Romard Amalya Francisco, Ramel Aligno Acojedo, and Feraida Rosario.
“We will not stop fighting against illegal recruiters and human trafficking syndicates who are deceiving our countrymen who want to work abroad for a better future of their families. We will continue our operations to suppress, arrest, and shut down their wrongdoings,” Cacdac stressed.
Investigation showed that the suspects were victimizing job applicants by promising them employment in Cambodia, Myanmar, and Thailand with monthly pay ranging from $800 to $1,000. However, authorities discovered that the real motive was to send the victims to work in crypto currency scam hubs abroad. Vito Barcelo
