Matagumpay na natulungan ng Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) ang tatlong Pilipino na naging biktima ng human trafficking sa Syria.
Sinalubong ang mga ito ng mga kinatawan mula DFA sa Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) sa pangunguna ng Department of Foreign Affairs’ Office of the Undersecretary for Migrant Workers’ Affairs (DFA-OUMWA).
Tutulong naman ang iba pang ahensya ng gobyerno sa bagong panimula na haharapin ng mga repatriates.
Nagtungo rin sa NAIA ang mga kinatawan mula Overseas Workers Welfare Administration, Department of Social Welfare and Development, Inter-Agency Council Against Trafficking, Bureau of Immigration at Philippine Coast Guard.
Gagabayan naman ang mga ito sa paghahain ng criminal complaints para sa paglabag sa Republic Act (RA) 9208, o Anti-Human Trafficking in Persons Act, at RA 8042 (Migrant Workers Act).
Representatives from the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration, Department of Social Welfare and Development, Inter-Agency Council Against Trafficking, Bureau of Immigration and Philippine Coast Guard also welcomed the trio.
