On October 2, the Philippine Bureau of Immigration raided two locations in Sibuco, Zamboanga, suspected of illegal offshore gambling, detaining 244 foreign nationals, most of them Chinese. They will be deported for suspected violations of immigration laws and placed on a blacklist banning re-entry. About 3,000 mobile phones, 78 monitors and other devices were also seized at the scene. Their identities, nationalities and possible involvement in human trafficking are still under investigation.
