ZAMBOANGA CITY (Mindanao Examiner / Dec. 14, 2011) – Philippine soldiers rescued 7 people who were allegedly recruited and forced into hard labor in the southern province of Tawi-Tawi, officials said Wednesday. | |||
Officials said the victims were rescued in the village of Tinggusung in Sitangkai town, but details of the operations that led to the recovery of the 7 men were not made public neither their recruiter. | |||
“Accordingly, the victims were subjected to forced labor,” Lieutenant Colonel Randolph Cabangbang, a spokesman for the Western Mindanao Command, told the Mindanao Examiner. | |||
He identified the victims as Raymon Dequin, Renan Manluluyo, Ariel Fernando, Jerubin Daquel, Romnick Bederol and Randy Sumilang. | |||
It was unknown where the victims were recruited or if they paid money in exchange for a job in Tawi-Tawi. “The victims were brought to the Department of Justice for processing, helping them pursue a case against their recruiter,” Cabangbang said. | |||
Tawi-Tawi is a notorious haven for human traffickers who use the province as a jumping board to nearby Sabah, an oil-rich Malaysian state off the southern Filipino border. (Mindanao Examiner) | |||
