00:00First of all, we are confirming that we have already arrested Pastor Kibuloy, Jacqueline Roy, Ingrid Canada, Crescente Canada, and Silva Semanes.
00:15We were able to get their custody around 5.30 this afternoon.
00:20And around 6.30, we were able to transfer them from Davao to Villamore.
00:28They boarded the C-130, the so-called individual.
00:33They arrived here in Villamore around 8.30 at night.
00:38And we arrived here at the custodial facility around 9.10 at night.
00:44Now, they are undergoing a booking process, including fingerprint and mug shot.
00:52The physical and medical examination has also been completed.
00:56And this is already happening because earlier this afternoon,
01:04there was a negotiation to allow them to surrender because we gave them an ultimatum
01:15that within 24 hours, they need to surrender and there was a negotiation.
01:20So, these are joint efforts of PNP and AFP.
01:25Ma'am, did they surrender inside the Kingdom of Jesus Christ?
01:32Yes, they surrendered inside the KOJC compound.
01:38Ma'am, here inside the PNP custodial center, will they be together in a room?
01:42How will this happen?
01:43We don't have any details yet. Thank you very much.
01:46Ma'am, what will happen next?
01:48The processing is ongoing now because there are five people who were booked at the same time.
01:54They were also inspected and they are in good condition.
01:58Although some of them, based on the medical examination, have a high BP.
02:04But other than that, they are okay.
02:06The processing is ongoing now.
02:09Ma'am, which case were they booked earlier?
02:12All of the cases.
02:13When they arrived here at the custodial center, they were served the same warrant.
02:20If you can remember, these are three cases.
02:22They were charged with child abuse, sexual abuse, and qualified trafficking.
02:30They were charged based on their cases and their lawyers.
02:34After that, they were charged based on their Miranda rights and rights.
02:40After that, the processing is ongoing.
02:46Ma'am, what about the 24-hour ultimatum that you mentioned earlier?
02:50The PNP gave us the ultimatum to surrender.
02:54Otherwise, we will enter a particular building that does not allow us to enter.
03:00So, there was a negotiation.
03:02The PNP was led by an intelligence group.
03:07One of them helped us.
03:09That led to the peaceful surrender of Napastoky Buloy and four others.
03:13We are thankful for this peaceful process.
03:21Ma'am, where did they hide?
03:23I don't have the liberty to reveal that.
03:26The important thing for now is that the PNP is in custody.
03:30Tomorrow, we expect that the warrants of arrest will be returned to the issuing courts.
03:37Particularly, to Quezon City where the other cases were transferred to Davao and RTC 159.
03:45Ma'am, where is the underground?
03:48I don't have any information on that.
03:51The important thing is that we are the ones who are looking for them.
03:55Ma'am, is the room safe? Can you give us if there is an air-con?
04:00I haven't seen them yet.
04:02I don't know where they will be kept.
04:05We already have a plan.
04:07Earlier, while the negotiation was ongoing, we already planned where their cells will go.
04:14We will give additional details as we go.
04:18Definitely, they will be separated.
04:21What is the plan, ma'am?
04:23Well, as to the operational details and planning, we will just wait and finish the process.
04:31What's important is that we just would like to confirm that the PNP is in custody.
04:36Thank you very much.
