00:00 A recruitment agency in Las Piñas is complaining that our female colleagues are trying to go abroad.
00:07 Witness, John Consulta.
00:09 The NBI Cybercrime Division entered the four-story house in Las Piñas City.
00:18 It was after someone approached the NBI to ask for help for some applicants who will go abroad.
00:24 The first thing that happened was a complaint from a recruitment agency.
00:29 He has a relative who is currently detained here in the travel agency
00:33 and he is not allowed to go abroad unless he pays the required amount of the recruitment agency.
00:40 In exchange for the amount, he will release his travel documents, which was in this case his passport.
00:48 Nene's complaint, he did not mention his dream of working in Saudi Arabia
00:53 to pay for his family's hard work, suddenly became a complaint
00:57 after he said he will be released.
00:59 Despite his complaint, he refused to return his travel documents and passport.
01:04 We are being detained. We are not allowed to go out without our backpacks.
01:08 We feel like we are prisoners.
01:10 They will tell us where we are going, they will bring us a bag.
01:15 They might say we will run away. That's what they are telling us.
01:20 They applied for work to go abroad, but instead they were released.
01:25 They were held there and they were asked to do activities that an applicant should not usually do.
01:34 The eight officials of the recruitment agency refused to give an explanation in front of the camera
01:39 in the face of numerous complaints.
01:41 But they admitted that they are registered with the DMW and that they will stop their operation.
01:46 The GMA Integrated News is trying to get the DMW's attention on this matter.
