Three Filipinos and a Malaysian were arrested in Jakarta, Indonesia by the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) for defrauding their clients in the Philippines, ABS-CBN News learned yesterday.

ABS-CBN correspondent Maan Macapagal said the Filipinos, identified as Tagumpay Pablo Perez Kintanar, Joseph Luis Tomacruz Bismark, Donna Marie Glenn Imson, and their alleged leader, Malaysian Vijayeswaran Vijayaratnam, are facing a multi-million dollar fraud case in the Philippines.

A warrant for their arrest has been issued after two Filipino victims filed a complaint against them. One of the complainants lost $625,000 to the suspects.

The suspects went into hiding after a manhunt was launched against them. Interpol also placed them in its wanted list.

Lawyer Ric Diaz, the National Bureau of Investigation's regional director for criminal intelligence, said the suspects' company, Gold Quest International, were able to victimize people across Asia. Diaz added that the suspects had offices in the region's financial districts.
