Manila, Philippines – COMMON it was, a house in a quiet neighborhood facing the village’s lone covered basketball court. The wall in front was made of hollow blocks with steel bars pointed to the sky, while its roof was sloped and unremarkable.

An informant who knew what it was being used for as a den for women and minors recruited from the provinces for illegal deployment overseas gave the Blas F.

The information was correct, as a rescue mission jointly undertaken by the National Bureau of Investigation’s AntiHuman Trafficking Unit headed by Atty. Dante Bonoan affirmed.
