July 02, 2025

Twenty-one Filipino victims of human trafficking have returned home after enduring months of forced labor in Myanmar, where they were made to carry out online scams under brutal and inhuman conditions.

- By JEFFREY DAMICOG

The Bureau of Immigration (BI) said on Monday, June 30, the victims arrived at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 on June 25.

BI Commissioner Joel Anthony M. Viado said the repatriated Filipinos were lured by false promises, stripped of their dignity, and forced to work under inhumane conditions.
