NBI Assistant Director Glenn Ricarte has confirmed that popular TV personality Jay Sonza was handed over to the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) following his temporary detention by the Bureau of Immigration (BI) two weeks ago.
Sonza was reportedly en route to Hong Kong when immigration officials interviewed him. During this check, officials discovered a pending estafa case against Sonza, leading to him being prevented from leaving the country.
Further details about the estafa case have not been disclosed, and it remains unclear how this development will affect Sonza’s future travels and professional commitments.
