Burial site of POGO workers in Porac? PAOCC checking

PAOCC spokesman Winston John Casio said witnesses tipped them off about a supposed burial ground near the Lucky South 99 compound.

“There are certain areas where the dead foreign nationals are allegedly buried,” Casio said in an interview over dzBB.

The reports of killings of foreigners at Lucky South 99 are proof of the violence inflicted on the workers in the POGO hub ranging from torture to killing, he added.
