(UPDATE) AUTHORITIES arrested a Chinese with links to the Peoples Liberation Army (PLA) and his two Filipino accomplices suspected to be behind an espionage operation involving equipment used to map critical infrastructure across the country.
In a press briefing on Monday, Jeremy Lontoc, National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Cybercrime Division chief, said the intelligence operation began when authorities tracked the movements of the group through a covert GPS device installed on their vehicle.
