WATCH: Immigration agent hits Chinese woman | ABS-CBN News

MANILA - The Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) is investigating an immigration agent who was caught on video hitting a female Chinese national at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 last Sunday.

MIAA officer-in-charge Vicente Guerzon, Jr. directed NAIA 3 manager Octavio Lina to investigate the incident wherein a man in civilian clothes was seen on a cellphone video manhandling a female Chinese national. Two uniformed security personnel, reportedly from Cebu Pacific, were also captured in the video.

In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Lina said the man in civilian clothes exchanging blows with the female Chinese passenger is Immigration intelligence agent Benjie Magallon.

The passenger was identified as Jiang Huixing, a Cebu Pacific passenger who had just arrived from Beijing.

Lina said Jiang was the subject of an "airport to airport proceeding'' for violating an immigration policy prohibiting foreigners from illegally working in the country.

Jiang 's travel records indicate that she is a frequent traveler to the Philippines.

Authorities said Jiang would use up all the time she is allowed to stay in the Philippines, return to China and then go back to Manila to resume her work as a teacher in an exclusive Chinese school.

Lina said immigration officials ordered Jiang's deportation but the latter resisted uniformed personnel from Cebu Pacific.

The airline personnel then asked Magallon to help.

Lina said MIAA has coordinated with Cebu Pacific to identify the two uniformed security guards. MIAA also asked the Bureau of Immigration to require their agents to submit incident reports.

"The airport authority is seriously investigating this incident to determine what caused the incident," Lina said. – By Raoul Esperas

Dapat sa 3 un (immigration at 2 guard) i-terminate.

pag naka duty ka kailangan maximum tolerance, kung nagwawala ung suspect i-restrain mo, at hindi para upakan.

hindi lahat ng witness ay inosente, meron din accessory to the crime dahil pinayagan ng guard na umabuso ung immigration officer.

It's hard to trust Immigration Officers because they engage in profiling, even for Pinoys who are 1st time travelers. This woman was a frequent traveler to the PH. Kung meron violation ng working without a permit, eh di kasuhan. The situation got out of control, no thanks to airport officers who couldn't restrain one traveler. Sheesh.

This will only help deteriorate our relationship with China. I agree that those immigration agents are highly abusive.

Dapat babae din na immigration officer ang na assign sa mainlander na iyan...

One dumb immigration intelligence officer, good thing intelligent was not the term used. Combined with 2 security guards who got afraid of the officer. Everything equate with CHAOS.

Ang problema sa ating systema, the guard is always at the bottom. If guard see's a police or person of authority is already at the helm, they tend to get out of arms way kahit they are responsible on the area. Seem's like the orientation they get from their training & PNP is in such direction.

Tsaka aside from being a female, sana meron din sila training for these kind of situation para hindi lumala.
