Woman Arrested For Illegal Recruitment In Gen.Trias Cavite

A woman was arrested by the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) for Illegal Recruitment in Gen.Trias Cavite.

  • Illegal recruitment is committed when two elements concur, namely:
    1. The offender has no valid license or authority required by law
    to enable one to lawfully engage in the recruitment and placement
    of workers; and
    2. He undertakes either any activity within the meaning of
    “recruitment and placement” defined under Art. 13 (b), or any
    of the prohibited practices enumerated under Art. 34 of the Labor
    Code.
  • The penalty of life imprisonment and a fine of One Hundred thousand
    Pesos (P100,000) shall be imposed if illegal recruitment constitutes
    economic sabotage.
  • Illegal recruitment when committed by a syndicate or in large scale
    shall be considered an offense involving economic sabotage. Illegal
    recruitment is deemed committed by a SYNDICATE if carried out by
    a group of three (3) or more persons conspiring or confederating
    with one another. It is deemed committed in large scale if committed
    against three (3) or more persons individually or as a group.

The arrest was made after more than one month of surveillance against the arrested suspect.

She is allegedly conducting an illegal recruitment seminar when arrested.

The CIDG which is accompanied by the POEA entered the house where the illegal recruitment seminar was being held.

Inside the house was more or less 100 overseas employment worker applicants.

The alleged illegal recruitment offender was identified as Joy Callo.

The Illegal Recruitment violator allegedly misled the applicants to believe that they will work in Milan, Italy with an hourly pay of 10 euro. She further promised that within 3 months, the applicant may immediately leave for Italy.

The arrested suspect for Illegal recruitment further demanded that the applicant pay P3,500 for the medical checkup. She required the applicant to pay P150,000 as a placement fee which will be deducted from their salary for 3 years.

The POEA said that the accused is not licensed to operate as a recruitment agency.

    • ededetain sya ng pulis, isasampa ng pulis yung kaso sa prosecutor’s office, eevaluate ng prosecutor’s office ang evidensya isusumite ng pulis at pag kumbinsido sila na may sapat na katibayan upang kasuhan si Joy ay isasampa ng prosecutor ang demanda sa korte at magkakaruon ng trial. Pag napatunayan sa korte na may sala nga si Joy, sya ay makukulong at pag d napatunayan na may kasalanan sya, pawawalan sya ng korte at magiging malaya na uli sya.

      Mukhang di rin maaring makapagpyansa si Joy kasi mukhang kakasuhan sya ng mataas na uri ng illegal recruitment at ang ebidensya laban sa kanya ay mukha rin malakas.

    • kung totoong may kasama pa sya, magiging liable din yung dalawa pang kasama kung pareho nila pinagplanuhan yung panloloko, conspiracy yun at sa mata ng batas, ang kasalanan ng isa ay kasalanan ng lahat.

  1. Dapat kasuhan din yung clinic yung St rita clinic na yan sa buendia,tino tolerate nila yung mga panloloko sa tao.

    • pag lalabas sa imbestigasyon ng pulis na may alam yung clinic at walang ginawa para matigil yung panloloko ni joy, magiging accessory or accomplice yung clinic depende sa evaluation na prosecutor’s office halimbawang isama yung clinic sa asunto ng mga pulis.

  2. Masyadong maliit yung 100,000 na penalty sa laki ng nakuha na pera ng Joy na yan,first batch 750 ang slot daw x 3,590,at 1800 yata ang slot ng 2nd batch. malamang hati sila ng Saint Rita diagnostic clinic sa buendia,

    • Maliit nga kumpara sa nakuha nya pero yun kasi sabi ng batas, ang mahalaga nahuli na sya at pananagutan nya sa batas ang ginawa nyang krimen.

    • paano makakalabas? sa pagkakaalam ko sa kasong illegal recruitment na may involved na 3 or more victims, di pwedeng mag post ng bail o pyansa.

  3. pag nag pamedical ba is libre walang bayad? kung mag abroad ka?
    un kasi ung sabi dito mapupunta kay joy at sa st. rita? so ibigsabihin ba nun mag kasabwat sila? ganun ba un? @Delfin J Ulitan diba hindi pa naman tapos imbestigasyon… baka namn maling impormasyon lang… or huli naba ako sa balita? tnx

    • usually airplane ticket at placement fee sinasagot ng employer. Ang medical checkup sagot ng applicant unless tahasang sasaguting ng employer. Pag d pa naefile sa fiscal yung complaint, ibig sabihin iniimbistigahan pa ng pulis at kumukuha ng karagdagang ebidensya, pag walang knowledge yung st,rita sa activities ni joy, d eto isasali sa asunto.
