The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission on Thursday confirmed that the Chinese military uniforms found in the raided Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator compound in Porac, Pampanga are authentic but already old.PAOCC spokesperson Winston John Casio said this translates to two possibilities: either veteran Chinese military personnel are working or are owners of the POGO hub, or the uniforms were part of someone’s militaria collection.
Casio said that if the badge is proven authentic, it might mean that a veteran Chinese police or soldier was employed, or involved with the POGO firm.“‘Yung pinaka-malala ay baka naman talagang merong military spies na embedded sa mga illegal na mga online gaming farms na ito. Bear in mind, these are scam farms, these are what I dub as ‘conduits of money laundering,’” he said.
