2 minors rescued, alleged pimp arrested in Bulacan

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Anti-Human Trafficking Division rescued five victims, including two minors, and arrested the  suspect who allegedly pimped them out, John Consulta reported Tuesday on “24 Oras.”

Suspect Mark Abungcay allegedly pimped out the victims using an "online menu" with their photographs.

“Kapag may nagustuhan ang customer parang nagkakaroon ng drive thru, ano. Dinadaanan ng mga customer ang mga victim sa isang lugar at dinadala ito sa hotel,” said NBI spokesperson Attorney Gisele Dumlao.

Authorities are also investigating other possible accomplices in the alleged sex trafficking operation in Bulacan.

GMA Integrated News is seeking comment from the suspect who will face charges for the online sexual abuse and exploitation of children, Expanded Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act of 2022, and Child Abuse Law. — Sherylin Untalan/DVM, GMA News
