All personnel from the 7th floor have reportedly been fully released after their employer stepped in. However, the situation on the 17th floor is vastly different—over 100 workers were apprehended and are currently detained at the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) detention facility. The 17th-floor company had reportedly been flagged and exposed as an illegal operation last month.
The incident has not yet reached local media headlines. Sources claim NBI agents carried out the raid without arrest warrants, allegedly aiming to secure payouts before retroactively processing paperwork with the courts. Given that over 100 people were taken into custody, the case is widely expected to surface in local news soon.
