On July 8, the Philippine Department of Justice (DOJ) made a commitment to the public that it will fairly evaluate illegal Philippine online gaming operators (POGOs) and will take action based on available evidence.
According to the Philippine News Agency, DOJ spokesman Assistant Secretary Mico Clavano said the department will immediately evaluate all cases, regardless of the involvement. What is the status of the personnel.
There were previous reports that a former cabinet official was suspected of lobbying for illegal POGOs.
Clavano emphasized that the DOJ's role is to act based on the evidence and ensure that any case is properly evaluated and supported by the evidence. Submit it to the court. The same principle applies to Alice Guo, mayor of Bamban, Tarlac City, who was recently charged in a human trafficking case related to a raid on a POGO center.
When it comes to alleged torture reports about POGO centers, Clavano said the DOJ will investigate any case as long as there is sufficient evidence to support it. Taking action on submitted charges reaffirms the Department's commitment to acting on evidence.
