Mongolia will bring home  92 officials this year in a campaign dubbed “Bird”, pursuing them abroad as part of a wider crackdown on deep-rooted graft. Therefore, Mongolian law enforcements extradited T.Badamjunai, 67, in cooperation with the Bureau of Immigration (BI) of Philippines on Wednesday.

BI officials on Tuesday arrested T.Badamjunai after receiving information from the Mongolian Police that the official is staying in Cebu. Mongolian government “also canceled his passport, rendering him undocumented.”

Consequently, T.Badamjunai was deported on Tuesday night via a Korean Airlines flight from Mactan, Cebu, upon the request of Mongolian authorities.

T.Badamjunai served as the former Minister of Food, Agriculture and Light Industry in Mongolia.
