MANILA, Philippines – Hinimok ni Cagayan de Oro Rep Rufus Rodriguez ang Department of Justice (DoJ) na sampahan ng kasong treason ang Infinitus Marketing Solutions, ang Makati-based firm na kinontak ng Chinese Embassy para maging troll farms para sa mga propaganda ng Chinese government.
Ayon kay Rodriguez, dapat na kasuhan ang mga opisyal at board of directors ng kumpanya dahil sa ginagawa nitong pakikipagsabwatan sa China.
“The DOJ and the National Bureau of Investigation should file charges for treason and other violations of the Revised Penal Code and the National Security Act against officers and directors of Infinitus Marketing Solutions,” paliwanag ni Rodriguez.
“In general, these laws punish any Filipino who betrays or is disloyal to his country and who works against its national interest, sovereignty and territorial integrity,” giit pa nito.
Maging ang mga Chinese embassy offficials na kumontak sa Infinitus ay dapat din umanong kasuhan bilang “principals by direct participation.”
“These Chinese diplomats and embassy staff should likewise be immediately sanctioned by the Department of Foreign Affairs,” giit ni Rodriguez na dating law dean.
Batay sa nakalap na impormasyon ang Infinitus ay itinayo ng isang Paul Li habang isang Myka Basco-Poynton ang co-founder samantala isang Nestor Arciaga ang tumatayong marketing officer at social media manager.
“I am interested in knowing the social media personalities they have engaged and paid to work against our national interest and promote China’s false narratives on the West Philippine Sea,” dagdag pa ni Rodriguez.
Ang pagiging troll farms ng Infinitus ng Chinese government at nadiskubre sa isinagawang Senate hearing sa pangunguna ni Senate Majority Leader Francis Tolentino. Gail Mendoza
