Alleged ******** spy Alice Guo arrested in Indonesia

A former Philippine mayor who was on the run for weeks after being accused of spying for China has been arrested in Indonesia.

Philippine authorities have been pursuing Alice Guo across four countries even since she disappeared in July following an investigation into her alleged ********* activities.

She has been accused of protecting online casinos, which were a front for scam centres and human trafficking syndicates in her sleepy pig farming town, Bamban.

Ms Guo denies the allegations. Philippine officials said they were co-ordinating with their Indonesian counterparts for her return to the Philippines “at the soonest possible time”.

The former mayor said she grew up on the family farm with her ******** father and ********* mother, but MPs who investigated the scam centre operations accused her of being a ******** national named Guo Hua Ping, and a spy who provided cover for ********* gangs.

The dramatic nature of her case, which has since seen her sister arrested and questioned before by the Philippine Senate, sparked fury in the country and drew international attention.

Authorities believe that Guo slipped past border checks in July and took several boats, crossing neighbouring Malaysia and Singapore, on her way to Indonesia, where she was arrested on Tuesday on the western border of the capital Jakarta.

While online casinos or Philippine Online Gaming Operations are not ********, they are increasingly being exposed as cover for other *******.

The firms, which mostly cater to mainland ******** clients, flourished under former president Rodrigo Duterte, who sought close economic and political ties with Beijing.

But Mr Duterte’s successor, Ferdinand Marcos Jr, reversed the country’s foreign policy direction and has cracked down on Pogo-linked ******* since assuming office in 2022.
