These cases have become rampant on Aurora Boulevard, Superintendent Limuel Obon, chief of the Quezon City Police District-Kamuning  Station, told the Philippine Daily Inquirer in a recent interview.

But the complainants, usually married men, were not inclined to pursue charges, afraid that their rendezvous would be known through the media, Obon said.

Police officers at the Kamuning Station, who grinned knowingly when asked about it, could not say how the term “Jocard” came to be.

“It’s just a code we use,” a police investigator said.

But the police could no longer do that since vagrancy has been decriminalized.

Women’s groups would also come to their rescue, maintaining that the women were victims, Obon said.

Police have tried to ask barangay (village) officials to revoke the business permits of the apartelles to no avail.

To help complainants identify those who took their wallets, the police would show a gallery of previously arrested women who never give their real names to the police.
