Immigration authorities arrested five foreign nationals in a series of operations across Northern Luzon for alleged overstaying and illegal employment, the Bureau of Immigration (BI) said.
Operatives conducted the crackdown from 30 to 31 July across Nueva Ecija, Bulacan, Zambales and Pampanga.
In Cabanatuan City, Nueva Ecija, immigration agents arrested 23-year-old Indian national Sahil Kumar after confirming he was overstaying and unable to present valid travel documents.
Local residents also reported that Kumar was operating an illegal money-lending scheme.
In Balagtas, Bulacan, agents took 29-year-old Indian national Sharendran Doss Devadoss into custody for lacking immigration documents and overstaying his authorized stay.
A third overstaying operation in Subic, Zambales, resulted in the arrest of 39-year-old Chinese national Huang Pengpeng.
In Angeles City, Pampanga, BI officers arrested two South Korean nationals, Jin Su Deok, 51, and Oh Eiseok, 49, after catching them managing a restaurant without required work visas or valid immigration papers.
All five individuals were transferred to the bureau’s headquarters in Manila for booking and the initiation of deportation proceedings.
