BI ARRESTS FEMALE CHINESE PRETENDING TO BE FILIPINO AT NAIA

AGENTS of the Bureau of Immigration (BI) on Sunday arrested a Chinese woman at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) for allegedly misrepresenting herself as a Filipino. 

Nabbed at the NAIA Terminal 3 was Wang Xiujun, 43, who is said to have been using the alias Cassia Palma Poliquit.

The suspect was arrested after arriving in the country from Malaysia.

Xiujun reportedly plans to reside in the Philippines and to sell and distribute electric vehicles in Metro Manila.

The BI said the Chinese  woman was placed under their monitoring after the bureau received information from the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) regarding her suspicious identity.

NBI dactyloscopy cross-examination of records revealed that Poliquit had the same fingerprint records as Wang, confirming that they are indeed the same person.

She arrived on board an Air Asia flight to Manila from Kuala Lumpur, and was immediately arrested by BI border control and intelligence unit (BCIU) officers.

The foreigner was immediately booked and placed in the BI warden’s facility, pending deportation proceedings.
