A Japanese fugitive wanted for trafficking and recruiting Filipino women to work as nightclub workers in his country was expelled and banned from returning to the Philippines.

Teruaki Nasu, 61, was deported to Tokyo aboard a Japan Airlines flight from the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Immigration Commissioner Ricardo David Jr. said.

Nasu was expelled pursuant to a summary deportation order issued against him by the Bureau of Immigration board of commissioners last April 20.

Nasu was deported at the request of the Japanese Embassy in Manila which alleged that he facilitated the travel of several Filipinas to Japan without the required working visas.

The embassy said Nasu was charged with falsifying public documents and violating Japan’s immigration and refugee recognition law.

He is also the subject of an arrest warrant by the Omiya summary court in Saitama prefecture.

David said the Japanese was placed on the immigration blacklist to prevent him from re-entering the country.

Lawyer Arvin Santos, BI law and investigation chief, said Nasu was accused of using a non-profit organization called “Apple Tree” as a front for recruiting Filipinas that he hired to work as guest relations officers at a nightclub in Gyoda, Japan.

Nasu’s organization advertises itself as a human rights organization that helps former “Japayukis” who have sired children by Japanese men to travel to Japan and demand justice for their plight by filing lawsuits against their ex-lovers.

But Nasu allegedly used the organization to recruit Japayukis, thus enabling the latter to enter Japan as tourists.

“Thus, Nasu succeeded in obtaining Japanese visas for his recruits who were able to leave by falsifying the purpose of their visit to Japan,” Santos said.
