00:15Saksi!
00:16Almost 4 million pesos worth of vape that hasn't been registered
00:19has been sold by Bust in Quezon City.
00:22And some of these are being sold online.
00:24Saksi!
00:25Marisol Abdurrahman Exclusive!
00:31CIDG has registered hundreds of vapes in a Buy Bust in Quezon City.
00:36It was found in a warehouse
00:38through intelligence information
00:40about a group that sells unregistered vapes.
00:44All importation, sale, manufacturing, or even distribution
00:49should pass through here.
00:51In Buy Bust,
00:52a total of 210,000 pesos was ordered by the same buyer
00:56but more vapes were obtained
00:58worth almost 4 million pesos.
01:01They also sell online.
01:03There are physical stores
01:05and online stores that are their target market.
01:10According to CIDG,
01:11it is possible that the vapes registered from other countries
01:14that the distribution is not only here in Metro Manila
01:17but also in other places in the country.
01:21The markings and the description of these items
01:27are believed to be from other countries.
01:30What contributes to this fast transaction
01:34is through online selling.
01:37It can be sent through couriers.
01:39Four suspects have been arrested
01:41but only two of them are buyers.
01:45We didn't know who the supplier was.
01:50That's what happened to us.
01:53I was just an online seller.
01:54I was there to buy a product.
01:57They thought it was a woman.
01:59It was their transaction.
02:01They also thought that I was the owner.
02:03The other two were said to be just workers.
02:07Where is the owner?
02:09She suddenly disappeared.
02:10We were also left in the middle.
02:11We didn't know who the owner was.
02:15Suspects who were arrested by CIDG
02:17have already filed a complaint.
02:21For GMA Integrated News,
02:23Marisol Abduraman is your reporter.
02:28The three Filipinos who were employed by UMANO
02:32in a scam hub
02:33and were also tortured in Cambodia
02:35and not only were they hurt,
02:37but they were also cut by a whip
02:39and were also given cigarettes by Filipinos.
02:42Witnesses are John Consuta.
02:48The three Filipinos were hit by a big whip
02:50and were injured in various parts of the body
02:53in Cambodia.
02:54Their complaint that they were tortured
02:57in a scam hub was already there.
02:59They sent a video to GMA Integrated News
03:02asking for their grandfather.
03:04They also told that they were cut by a whip
03:07and were given cigarettes and were tortured.
03:10I hope we can go home safely
03:13to our family in the Philippines.
03:16We are still here.
03:18We don't know what can happen.
03:22Yesterday, they were safe and returned to the Philippines.
03:27These are the people behind me.
03:30These are our countrymen
03:32who were assisted by the National Bureau of Investigation
03:38to leave Cambodia
03:42and return to the Philippines.
03:44They went out to issue information
03:47that they were slaughtered in the back door of our country.
03:52The injuries and cuts are still visible in their bodies.
03:55Thank God for the second life for the three of us.
04:01The victim, Alice, was hit by a whip.
04:05She was hit by a cigarette and a hot steel
04:08to wake up.
04:09When they hit me, I didn't wake up.
04:11They thought I was dead.
04:13I woke up after the second hit of the steel
04:17because it was too hot.
04:19When I woke up, the Chinese laughed at me.
04:22They laughed at you?
04:24Yes, they laughed at me and I was hit by a cigarette.
04:27To save the three Filipinos,
04:29the NBI contacted INTERPOL
04:32and the Interagency Council Against Trafficking or IACAT.
04:35Four NBI agents went to Cambodia.
04:38They followed the three to a safe house
04:41where they were being treated by an employer
04:43who gave them a reward for teaching them.
04:47To get out of the Philippines,
04:49the three went to Tawi-Tawi on a small boat.
04:53In the middle of the sea,
04:54they were transferred to a bigger boat
04:56that they were brought to Sabah, Malaysia.
04:59There, a faking departure stamp was placed
05:02on their passport.
05:04It was done in Malaysia.
05:07Whoever the recruiter contacted,
05:13they were surprised that as if they went out to the Philippines.
05:18According to the NBI,
05:19they were recruited online as a customer service representative
05:23with a monthly salary of US$1,000.
05:26However, they were scammed.
05:28What happened to them was not different
05:31from the experience of other Filipinos
05:33who were also victims of human trafficking.
05:35Twelve Filipinos were sent back to the Philippines
05:38from a crypto farm in Myanmar last month.
05:42Some of them were also full of pain
05:44from the pain of a Chinese employer.
05:47According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime,
05:51more than 2,000 Filipinos were victims of human trafficking
05:55from 2019 to 2023.
05:58Don't be fooled by the offer of a high salary.
06:01They are paid US$1,000 a month.
06:04Just believe in accredited recruitment agencies.
06:11Don't be fooled by them.
06:15You will only be in danger in other countries.
06:18For GMA In the Hidden News,
06:20I am John Consulta, your witness.
06:25Two persons of interest in the murder of a tourist from Slovakia,
06:31Mikaela Mikova, are now in the custody of the police.
06:34She is the witness of the leak of information about the POIs.
06:39The two persons who were previously involved in drug trafficking
06:42were arrested by the police.
06:44The first information that came out was that Mikova was stabbed.
06:48She was admitted to a medical exam and was shot in the head.
06:52There is also an indication of sexual abuse.
06:55Another person of interest is being investigated by the police,
06:58Regional Office 6.
07:01Parents of pre-kindergarten students who were screamed at
07:06and hurt by a teacher have decided to complain.
07:08The children's complaint to their parents
07:11is that they were helped in the CR.
07:13Mark Salazar, exclusive.
07:16Exclusive.
07:27It's getting annoying.
07:36A teacher who was caught by the CCTV on February 24,
07:42in a school, while teaching her pre-kindergarten student.
07:47The mother of the child told that her child has autism.
08:05But it's not just the child that was screamed at by the teacher.
08:08This girl is having a hard time with the addition.
08:29The child couldn't stop crying.
08:39That's when we got angry as a mother.
08:41I was crying because of what I did to my child.
08:43The first thing we saw was that she was slapped on the hand.
08:46We said, why did you do that?
08:49And when the teacher shouted at my child,
08:54she said, she almost broke the small fingers of my child.
08:59In teaching such young children,
09:04which is small, you should not be like that.
09:07According to the parents, the children are locked up in the bathroom if they are naughty.
09:12They were called to the darkroom.
09:14The darkroom is where the CR is located.
09:16The teachers apologized to the parents.
09:19At first, the teacher immediately apologized to me.
09:25I said, teacher, what happened?
09:28She said, mommy, I just slapped her on the hand.
09:31I said, but what you did was wrong, teacher.
09:34Why did you slap her?
09:36She said, that's right, mommy.
09:38That's why I'm apologizing for what I did.
09:42But the parents of the children continued to slap her.
09:47We talked on the phone with the owner of the school
09:51and he asked for a time to investigate the incident before giving a statement.
09:56DepEd has no statement about this.
09:59For GMA Integrated News, Mark Salazar, your witness.
