The Philippines’ Department of Justice (DOJ) has alerted law enforcement agencies to be on the lookout for the possible arrival or departure of Japanese gambling mogul Kazuo Okada, who now faces a $10 million fraud and perjury cases in the country.
Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre issued a two-page, Immigration Lookout Bulletin Order (ILBO) against Okada upon the request of Tiger Resort Leisure and Entertainment Inc. (TRLEI), the company managing Okada Manila.
In issuing the ILBO, Aguirre pointed out that “there is a strong possibility that he [Okada] may attempt to place himself beyond the reach of the legal processes of the government by leaving the country.”
“We thus deem the issuance of an ILBO against the subject person [Okada] in order to at least monitor the itineraries of his flight, travel, and/or whereabouts,” the ILBO stated, a copy of which was obtained by CalvinAyre.com.
