XXX probes child prostitution

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - Pinky Webb takes on a different trip along Quezon Avenue in Quezon City as she investigates alleged massage parlors that exploit minors through prostitution on ABS-CBNís XXX tonight after Bandila.

With the help of some assets, Pinky was able to document the existence of an ìaquariumî or a showroom of young women who offer extra service along with their massage.

Anthony Taberna, on the other hand, probes on a case involving the Philippine National Police (PNP) where 387 passers werenít allowed to take their oath to service due to an alleged cheating in the entrance examination. The results were questioned after authorities noticed homogenous answers in the test.

Meanwhile, Julius Babao discovers a new modus among riders in tandem that targets dental clinics. The act was caught via CCTV camera when a man, who pretended as a patient, robbed the clinic while his accomplice served as a lookout outside the establishment.

XXX, which recently won Outstanding Crime/Investigative Program at the Golden Screen TV awards, has been breaking some of the country’s important stories to date. It caught on cam former Batangas Gov. Antonio Leviste going out of prison this year after months of surveillance. And its exposé on the maltreatment of a grandmother detained in a dog cage spurred public outrage on how the family treated its mother.  

Also watch XXX on DZMM TeleRadyo tonight at 9:15.
