The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) is verifying reports concerning former Palace spokesperson Harry Roque in the Netherlands.

Roque, seeking political asylum, was offloaded from a flight to Vienna, Austria, and is currently in The Hague.

The Netherlands has referred his asylum application to Austria, and he stated he cannot travel until January.

Roque's passport was cancelled by a Pasig Regional Trial Court on November 24 and subsequently by the DFA due to alleged human trafficking charges.

An outstanding Philippine warrant from Angeles, Pampanga, exists for Roque related to his role in a scam hub in Porac, Pampanga.

Interior Secretary Jonvic Remulla confirmed that an Interpol red notice is still in the application process, with no approval or dissemination yet.
