00:00Dismissed Bamban Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo will also face a tax evasion complaint.
00:05And after being dismissed by the Ombudsman,
00:08Guo's lawyer will appeal the decision.
00:11Watch Salima Refran.
00:17One day after the dismissal of Ombudsman Alice Guo as Mayor of Bamban Tarlac,
00:22tax evasion was added to the complaints she is facing
00:26based on her role in Pugo in Baufu Compound in Bamban Tarlac.
00:30In the complaint filed by the BIR to the Department of Justice,
00:33the person who paid the Capital Gains Tax and Documentary Stamp Tax to Guo
00:38was the one who sold the shares in Baufu Land Development when the Mayor of Bamban ran away.
00:43It is very clear that there is a tax evasion case in this transaction.
00:47The value of the shares that she sold is very low.
00:52That's why the amount is P500,000.
00:56According to the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission of PAOC,
00:59Guo sold 2.5 million shares in 2021 for P1 per share.
01:06The shares sold by Guo and the Corporate Secretary of Baufu Land are also included in the complaint.
01:12The cases are multidimensional,
01:15but definitely there is a narrative there
01:18that will have to come out in the end.
01:20So that's the job now of the Law Enforcement Agencies to help us
01:24with the connections within so that the narrative can be completed.
01:30According to Guo's lawyer,
01:31they will be held accountable for each and every complaint filed by the BIR.
01:36According to the dismissal of the Ombudsman to Guo,
01:39his lawyer was saddened that the Ombudsman did not support their argument.
01:44But they are already preparing a motion for reconsideration
01:47that they will have to appeal in the Court of Appeals.
01:51This is the second criminal complaint against Guo.
01:54He is also facing a Qualified Human Trafficking Complaint here in the Department of Justice
01:59in connection with the raid on Zuniwan Technology in March this year.
02:03Aside from the Co-Warranto case and the cancellation of the birth certificate
02:07filed by the Office of the Solicitor General
02:10and the Material Misrepresentation case in Comelec.
02:14According to Comelec Chairman George Garcia,
02:16the Ombudsman's order is immediately executory
02:19except if he can get a temporary restraining order from the Court of Appeals.
02:24So even if he can file a Certificate of Candidacy for the next election,
02:28Comelec will cancel it.
02:30The dismissal of the Ombudsman to Guo is close to the 3-month suspension
02:34of 12 officials of BAMBAT, including the Vice Mayor.
02:38The member of the Sangguniang Baya is also in the same situation.
02:41So the one who will run the municipality first is Counselor Eranio Timbang.
02:45He is a Counselor in Sangguniang Bayan.
02:49But I think he opposed the removal of the permit.
02:54And because of this, since he opposed,
02:56yes, he was absolved or acquitted by the Ombudsman.
03:02It is sad that we have to go through this.
03:07But as they say, everything has a plan.
