Transcript
00:00 Fifteen people have complained of being tortured in a Pogo in Pasay
00:05 that operates as a scam hub.
00:08 Twenty-seven police officers were arrested for being negligent in their duties.
00:14 Salima Refran was able to testify.
00:16 That's how the workers of the Pogo in Pasay are being tortured.
00:26 Someone punched him on the face and then also kicked his body.
00:31 Because he never met the target set by the management to get those clients from the dating apps.
00:40 They are required to get ten plus clients per day.
00:44 The two are the agents of the Love Scam.
00:49 They are looking for clients in Love Scam, especially the retired men.
00:58 Their victims need to be in love for five days.
01:03 And then on the fourth day, when they communicate with their victims,
01:08 they need to be introduced to the crypto.
01:11 This one is having a hard time walking because of the valley in Balacang.
01:16 He jumped from the house to escape.
01:20 He first escaped from another Pogo in Pampanga.
01:24 But he was forced to get this Pogo in Pasay.
01:28 He jumped from the bus.
01:29 It seemed like the police saw him and brought him to Gala Station.
01:36 We were detained there for seven days.
01:41 They tortured us there.
01:42 They brought us here.
01:44 We were referred for investigation, most likely to the NBI,
01:47 to find out if the story is true and if the police in Quezon City have a responsibility.
01:53 We are trying to get the statement of the Quezon City Police District about this.
01:58 But they have no answer.
02:00 The reason is very scary.
02:02 That's why he tried to escape from Pogo in Pasay.
02:06 Who is he afraid of and what is he doing?
02:09 He might hit the boss.
02:14 He might hit him.
02:15 He hits him.
02:16 He just hits him.
02:18 He hits him.
02:19 He slaps him.
02:21 He hits him.
02:22 If they have a crime, he hits them.
02:25 Meanwhile, the police and the contraband were dispatched to the house.
02:30 Like alcohol, they were transferred to a bottle of mineral water.
02:34 And cigarettes were put in the cup noodles container.
02:39 It's not me. I don't know.
02:41 Twenty-seven police and the chief of police of Pasay were temporarily removed from their positions while being investigated.
02:49 For possible neglect of duty,
02:52 they were not able to detect the presence of illegal activities in the area.
02:57 The chief of police of Pasay previously said that the Pasay Police was the first to provide intelligence in the area.
03:04 Meanwhile, the forfeiture case for the house and properties of Pogo was being prepared.
03:10 A paper trail was also being investigated in obtaining the license of Pogo.
03:15 We wanted to talk to the LGU court to find out why this happened.
03:20 Recently, the registration of this establishment was cancelled.
03:27 After one month, the new registration was done.
03:29 We can see that this can't be done in one month.
03:31 For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nima Rafran.
03:34 Tuktok 24 Horas.
