Harry Roque living with fellow Filipinos in Netherlands, hopes to teach soon
Atty. Harry Roque claims that Dutch authorities booked him a flight to Vienna, Austria, but he was disembarked due to his passport cancellation amid qualified human trafficking charges.
Despite Dutch doctors clearing him for travel, Roque's surgeons deemed him unfit to fly.
Roque stated that the Netherlands informed him that Austria should handle his asylum request as they issued his visa.
He expressed confidence in seeking asylum in any European country, even if he had to present his case to Austria.
Currently, Roque is residing with fellow Filipinos in the Netherlands until December 6, as his temporary accommodation is tied to their rent period.
He hopes to teach soon, but wishes to follow his doctor's advice to avoid travel until January 8.
