MANILA — Incorporators and officers of KAPA Community International Ministry International Inc. and three officers of Alabel Maasim Credit Cooperative (Alamcco) have been placed on the immigration watchlist, an official of the Department of Justice (DOJ) said Friday.

In a statement, Justice Undersecretary and spokesperson Markk Perete said Secretary of Justice Menardo Guevarra has asked the Bureau of Immigration to place the officials under the Immigration Lookout Bulletin Order (ILBO).

“Immigration officers are directed to monitor within all ports of exit and entry the movement of those covered and verify if a legal basis exists to prevent them from leaving the Philippines,” Perete said.

In the list are KAPA incorporators and officers, Pastor Joel A. Apolinario, Nonita S. Urbano, Junnie G. Apolinario, Nelia V. Niño, Maria Pella B. Sevilla, Jouelyn A. del Castillo, Cristobal R. Barabad, Joji A. Jusay, Reyna L. Apolinario, Modie S. Dagala, Benigno D. Tipan Jr., Marilyn M. Maturan, Ricky A. Taer, and Margie A. Danao.

Also placed in the ILBO are Alamcco officers led by its chairman Jerson A. Cagang, corporate secretary Cynthia A. Gomeri and chief finance officer Ailene D. Mancoa.

The National Bureau of Investigation earlier said it is readying a formal complaint and other charges for violation of the Securities Regulation Code against Kapa for engaging in unauthorized undertakings.
