Brian Poe leads multi-agency illegal gaming raid
Seven individuals were arrested in Quezon City for allegedly operating illegal online and on-ground gambling activities.
The operation, which targeted five locations in Quezon City and two in Batasan Hills, was a joint effort by the CICC, DICT, PNP, PCSO, and Digital Pinoys.
Authorities confirmed the suspects were operating without licenses and violated the Revised Penal Code and the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012.
Representative Brian Poe participated in the raid, emphasizing the importance of inter-agency cooperation.
Poe also highlighted the need to increase funding for cybercrime enforcement, noting significant budget cuts to the DICT and CICC.
He stressed that increased funding would enable more operations against illegal gambling syndicates.
