Alice Guo could become stateless
By J.Lo
"No country will accept her…let us remember that China has no dual citizenship, and based on what was told by our Chinese counterparts, because she gave up her 'Chinese citizenship' and she obtained Philippine citizenship and passport, she has lost her right as Chinese citizen," Philippine Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC) spokesman Winston John Casio said suspended Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo could become stateless and lose all her properties in the Philippines after National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) exam showed her fingerprints are identical with those of Chinese national Guo Hua Ping.
Casio said NBI's findings have huge implications on Guo, as it has proved that she is not Filipino citizen.
He stressed that investigators believe that she has renounced her original status as natural born Chinese citizen.
"There's a possibility that Guo Hua Ping will be stateless, she won't belong in any country…how can we deport her if no one would accept her," he added.
Being foreigner, Casio said Guo could also lose all her properties in the Philippines, including 7.6-hectare Baofu compound where alleged illegal Philippine offshore gaming operator (POGO) hub of Zun Yuan Technology Inc. is located.
"She will lose rights to own it because it was found out that she is not Filipino," he said, noting that Guo could also face criminal cases for identity theft and even money laundering.
Department of Justice spokesman Mico Clavano said Mayor Guo may not be subjected to deportation because of pending criminal cases against her.
Various instruments of torture were recovered at villas at Fontana Leisure Park in Clark, Pampanga which law enforcement authorities raided on Thursday night, the PAOCC said.
Among items found inside five residential villas are baseball bats, tasers, retractable batons and bladed weapons.
Even with discovery of instruments, Casio said it is unlikely that people were tortured in villas as there are other residents in the leisure park.
Citing intelligence information they received, Casio said villas were used by alleged business associates of Mayor Guo.
He said people connected with other illegal POGO firms have also sought refuge in the five villas.
With villas closed, Casio said "bosses" of illegal POGOs hub in Pampanga have no other places to hide.
Nineteen foreigners and Filipino, former policeman who allegedly works as Guo's security officer, were rounded up during raid.
