Police officers inspect an abandoned property in Barangay Senyora, Porac, Pampanga, on July 9, 2024. The property with resort-like amenities is believed to be part of an illegal Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator (POGO), the Grand Palazzo Royale of the Lucky South 99, and used by its incorporators and Chinese big bosses for illegal activities, including scam modus, kidnapping, illegal detention, and human and sex trafficking activities.

MANILA — The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC) on Wednesday said it hoped to secure a search warrant to check reports that several people were allegedly buried inside an illegal gambling hub in Pampanga.

The PAOCC has at least 10 Chinese witnesses who testified that they were brought to the Lucky South 99 compound in Porac, Pampanga to work on “scamming activities,” said PAOCC spokesperson Winston Casio.

“Mayroong mga witnesses na lumapit at nagsabi na may mga inilibing na katawan sa Porac sa Lucky South 99,” he said.

“Kami ay nag-aapply ng search warrant nang sa gayon ay legal naming matingnan, mahukay yung mga lokasyon na itinuro ng mga witnesses na di umano ay pinaglibingan ng mga warrant,” he said.

“Hopefully within the week makakuha tayo ng warrant,” he added.

The PAOCC also secured 4 Filipino nationals who have direct knowledge about the alleged “physical abuse, kidnapping and forceful abduction” that happened in the Lucky South 99 compound, he said.

The PAOCC earlier filed human trafficking cases against Lucky South 99 official representative Cassandra Li Ong and several others connected to the illegal gambling hub in Pampanga.
