The Bureau of Immigration (BI) reported yesterday the arrest of an American and a Chinese wanted by authorities in their country for serious offenses.

BI Commissioner Jaime Morente identified the American as Arthur Mark Curts, 61, and the Chinese national as Dong Jinxi, 66, who were arrested separately  in Cebu.

Operatives from the BI’s fugitive search unit (FSU) arrested Curts in the town of Liloan last Sept. 21 in coordination with the US Diplomatic Security Service-Overseas Criminal Investigations and the Liloan police.

On the other hand, Dong was apprehended by the FSU in coordination with the Chinese Ministry of Security and local policemen five days later inside a five-star hotel in Mandaue City.

“They will be deported for being undesirable aliens and for being undocumented as their passports were already cancelled by their respective governments,” Morente said.

According to the BI chief, Curts was issued an arrest warrant by a US district court in Florid
