MANILA, Philippines—A South Korean national earlier convicted of illegal recruitment and estafa but later given conditional pardon by Malacañang during the Arroyo administration has been deported, the Bureau of Immigration said Friday.

Immigration Commissioner Ricardo David Jr. identified the Korean as Lee Byong-woon, 47.  He was flown to Incheon, South Korea, on a Cebu Pacific Airways flight.

Lee was deported 18 months after he was granted conditional pardon by former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, who had also ordered his deportation upon his release from prison.
