After slain transgender Jennifer Laude’s German fiance Marc Sueselbeck scaled the fence of the Joint US Military Assistance Group (JUSMAG) compound at Camp Aguinaldo last week, his name was placed on the Bureau of Immigraction watch list for charges of “undesirability.”
“On Sunday afternoon, October 26, Sueselbeck arrived at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1 only to be stopped at the immigration counter,” reports ABS-CBNnews.com.
The report noted: “Sueselbeck arrived in the Philippines last Monday, October 20, to attend Laude’s wake and funeral. On October 22, he attended the hearing at the Senate where they gathered information that the suspect, Private First Class Joseph Scott Pemberton, was transferred to Camp Aguinaldo.”
When asked to comment on his predicament, Sueselbeck said: “I don’t even know what’s happening, no authority contacted me. There are a lot of possibilities to contact me.”
He added, “This will destroy my life completely. I lost my wife, I lost my job.”
BI Commissioner Siegfred Mison explained, “Sueselbeck will not be arrested, but he will be given copy of the charge sheet and will be prevented from leaving on account of such charge.”
The charge against Sueselbeck is backed by Presidential Decree 1227, which says that a person “who, without express or implied permission or authority of the base commander or his duly authorized representatives, shall re-enter or is found within any military base after having been removed there from and ordered not to re-enter by the base commander or his duly authorized representative.”
The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) accepted Sueselbeck’s apology but they proceeded to file a complaint against him for being an “undesirable alien.”
Sueselbeck is set to face the BI legal department in order to seek clearance to leave the country.
