BI initiates deportation case against Chinese trader
The Bureau of Immigration (BI) is processing a deportation case against Joseph Sy, chairperson of Global Ferronickel Holdings, Inc., for allegedly falsifying his Filipino citizenship.
Sy, 60, was arrested on August 21 after his biometrics matched those of a Chinese citizen.
BI spokesperson Dana Sandoval stated that the deportation case is in its initial stages and that Sy claimed to be a natural-born Filipino when he is not even naturalized.
The BI is investigating if Sy has other pending cases and is also examining the nationality of his family members.
A previous deportation complaint against Sy in 2015 did not proceed due to insufficient evidence.
