Four Chinese nationals were arrested by National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) agents for allegedly abducting their three compatriots to force them to pay their gambling debts.
NBI Director Dante Gierran identified the arrested Chinese as Chen Zhimin, Lou Canfeng, Li Jai Huang, and Wang Yiping.
Gierran said the suspects were arrested during a rescue operation conducted by the NBI’s Environmental Crime Division (NBI-EnCD) at a hotel in Manila last Wednesday.
During the operation, NBI agents were able to rescue three Chinese captives who were identified as Han Yang Liu, Xiaofeng Li, and Shi Tuan Li.
On the same day, the NBI presented the four suspects for inquest before the Manila Prosecutor’s Office for kidnapping and serious illegal detention.
