THE BUREAU of Immigration (BI) arrested five illegally staying Vietnamese and Chinese citizens allegedly involved in abortion and cosmetic enhancements.
In a statement released on Wednesday, Immigration Commissioner Norman G. Tansingco said one of the suspects, a 29-year-old Vietnamese man misrepresenting himself as a doctor, was performing abortion and cosmetic procedures unsanctioned by the Department of Health.
The suspect was joined by two more Vietnamese and two Chinese nationals at a wellness clinic located on Macapagal Boulevard, Pasay City.
“Their activities are dangerous and pose a threat to public safety,” said Mr. Tansingco, adding that they are being processed for deportation. — Chloe Mari A. Hufana
