The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) arrested a woman identified as Azis in Batangas for allegedly engaging in sex trafficking.
Six individuals, including three minors, were rescued during an entrapment operation conducted by the NBI Batangas District Office (NBI-BatDO) on February 18.
The arrested woman reportedly offered both male and female victims, including minors, for sexual exploitation for fees ranging from P2,000 to P8,000.
Azis now faces charges for violating Republic Act 9208, the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act of 2003, as amended, before the Batangas City Prosecutor's Office.
The operation was initiated following information that the suspect was involved in human trafficking of minors in Lipa City, Batangas.
The NBI-BatDO coordinated with the Inter-Agency Council Against Trafficking (DOJ-IACAT), the Batangas Office of the City Social Welfare, and the NBI Human Trafficking Division (HTRAD) for the successful entrapment.
