2 foreigners nabbed for cheating in casino
MANILA, Philippines - Parañaque City police have arrested and detained two foreign nationals who were caught cheating on slot machines in a government-operated casino.
Immigration Commissioner Marcelino Libanan identified the two as Japanase Kasuhiro Watabe and Korean Kang Dong Mook.
Libanan said the two have been detained at the BI Detention Center in Bicutan, Taguig City since they were picked up by police last May 7.
Probers said the two earned as much as P400,000 from their illegal activities inside a casino of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. (Pagcor) in Barangay Sto. Niño, Parañaque.
Libanan issued a mission order for the duo’s arrest after receiving information that they were about to post bail for the estafa complaints filed by the police before the Parañaque City Prosecutor’s Office.
“They will undergo deportation proceedings for being undesirable aliens aside from facing the criminal charges that were lodged against them with the court," Libanan said.
PAGCOR officials had requested the BI to place the two in the immigration watchlist. - GMANews.TV
