The complaint, filed before the Department of Justice (DOJ) yesterday, accused Ong, the authorized representative of the POGO hub, and the others of violating Republic Act (RA) 9208 or the Anti-Trafficking In Persons Act.

Other respondents included Ronelyn Baterna, the corporate secretary of Lucky South 99; former president Stephanie Mascareñas; Duanren Wu, Whirlwind Corporation executive who is Ong’s boss and godfather; former Technology and Livelihood Resource Center deputy director general Dennis Cunanan and other incorporators.

Also included was Singaporean Zhang Jie, the former president of Lucky South 99 Outsourcing who allegedly booked four rooms at the Harris Hotel Batam Center for dismissed Bamban mayor Alice Guo and her siblings when they left the country.

DOJ Undersecretary Nicholas Felix Ty said Ong was named as the respondent as she is one of the incorporators and owners of Whirlwind Corp. and there is evidence that she operated Lucky South 99.
