MANILA, Philippines -- The National Bureau of Investigation has filed charges against six persons, including four Koreans, for allegedly exploiting young Filipino women through their mail-order bride business.
While the six were charged with violation of Republic Act 9208 (Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act of 2003), only four of them were arrested in an entrapment operation last Thursday.
They were identified as Park Song Ju, Lim Hui Kwon, and Park Dae Wong, all Korean nationals and temporarily residing at Washington Tower, Asiaworld City, Paranaque City; and Jenny Bon Ao, who had a pending case for violation of the Mail Order Bride Law, or Republic Act 6955.
Bon Ao faces additional charges of estafa and violation of RA 8042 (Migrant Workers and Overseas Filipinos Act of 1995), the NBI said.
Bureau agents are on the hunt for the two other suspects identified as Jung Ji Won, the alleged husband of Bon Ao; and Tele Cabagong, of Carmona, Cavite.
Investigation showed that before the suspects’ arrests, authorities were informed that Bon Ao was recruiting minors as workers in Korea. She was allegedly enticing victims to marry visiting Koreans so they could easily migrate to Korea.
