BI Commissioner Joel Anthony M. Viado said the three Filipinos -- two males and one female -- were intercepted by immigration officers at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 last July 20.

Viado said the three persons, whose identities were withheld in line with anti-trafficking laws, posed as tourists and were barred from boarding their flight to Da Nang, Vietnam.
