OPERATIVES of the Bureau of Immigration’s Fugitive Search Unit (FSU), led by Chief Rendel Ryan Sy, arrested two Chinese nationals during a law enforcement operation along Asean Avenue, Entertainment City, Barangay Tambo, Parañaque City on the evening of September 29.
The operation resulted in the arrest of Kong Xiangyu, 36, who was found to be an overstaying and undesirable alien.
Kong is wanted by the Jiutai District Court in Chang Chun City, Jilin Province, China, for Illegal Absorption of Public Deposits after allegedly conspiring with other Chinese nationals to collect around 6.54 million RMB from 42 investors between 2016 and 2019 through fraudulent investment schemes.
During the same operation, agents also encountered Yang Bing, 53, who was found to have active derogatory records and is subject to a hold departure order issued by a Parañaque court.
Both individuals were taken into custody following booking and documentation procedures and will be turned over to the Bureau of Immigration Warden’s Facility.
BI Commissioner Joel Anthony Viado lauded the operation, saying: “This successful arrest demonstrates our firm commitment to President Marcos’ directive to strengthen law enforcement and protect our country from foreign fugitives and undesirable aliens. The Bureau will not allow the Philippines to be a haven for those fleeing justice.”
