PAOCC to create safety nets after POGO raid escape

The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC) plans to establish 'safety nets' following the escape of alleged Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator (POGO) scam workers during a raid in Makati.

PAOCC executive director Gilbert Cruz acknowledged the possibility of leaks prior to raids, stating they will implement measures to prevent future occurrences.

Cruz mentioned that they are considering holding the building owner accountable and will discuss potential administrative or criminal sanctions with Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin.

These actions follow a raid on a building in Makati that was allegedly used for POGO scam activities, though no employees were found during the operation.

The Makati Business Permit and Licensing Office has already issued a closure order against the building.
