MANILA, Philippines (UPDATED) – How did a South Korean ward escape from the Bureau of Immigration’s (BI) detention center? The BI is offering a reward for those with information that will lead to the capture of Cho Seongdae.
Immigration Commissioner Siegfred Mison has ordered an investigation into how Cho Seongdae was able to escape the facility in western Bicutan, Taguig City, on Tuesday, September 29.
“Seongdae Cho was found to be missing at around 9:30 am yesterday (Tuesday). The personnel who were tasked to secure custody were likewise directed to submit their explanation on the incident,” said BI spokesperson Elaine Tan said in a statement on Wednesday, September 30.
Cho was detained by the BI on September 11, “pursuant to a summary deportation order dated September 9, on a charge of undesirability for being a fugitive in Korea.” He is wanted for extorting $23,500 (P1.97 million) in South Korea and for robbery in Cavite.
“We are considering all angles to establish Cho’s whereabouts,” said Tan.
Justice Secretary Leila de Lima and the South Korean embassy have been informed of Cho’s escape. If you have information on the whereabouts of Cho, you can text these numbers:
