MANILA, Philippines - A Canadian man was arrested for human trafficking after he was caught with a half-naked child on his bed in his condominium in Manila Thursday night.
Frank Orville Mader’s arrest stemmed from a tip the National Bureau of Investigation received on Oct. 9 that minors were being abused and drugs were sold in Mader’s unit, NBI deputy director Joel Tovera said.
NBI agents coordinated with the condominium’s security officers, who accompanied them to Mader’s unit.
Tovera said they have coordinated with the Department of Social Welfare and Development and the Canadian embassy.
