00:00A warning from the so-called Angels of Death.
00:04They threatened not to say anything to the five women who were forgotten
00:08who were victims of Pastor Apollo Quiboloy.
00:11The lawyer of Quiboloy is eager to release the evidence, the PNP.
00:15Witness, June Veneracion.
00:21Free education in exchange for recruitment.
00:24That's where the repeated abuse of Pastor Apollo Quiboloy began.
00:29To the five former members of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
00:33Based on the allegations of the women who were victims of the chief of Davao City Police,
00:38Police Colonel Hansel Marantan.
00:40At a young age, they were taken away.
00:43And most of them were from a broken family.
00:46Even their mothers, they brought their children to the foundation.
00:50At the age of 13, they were started to be raped.
00:54Pastor Quiboloy told them that you are offering yourself to the Almighty.
01:04He's a paedophile.
01:06As simple as that.
01:08Or you can find a simpler word than paedophile.
01:12How many years did the abuse last?
01:15And was there a schedule for what to do next?
01:18Like for instance, Monday.
01:19Victim 1, you are to be raped by Quiboloy on Monday.
01:24Victim 2, you are to be raped by Quiboloy on Tuesday.
01:27And so forth up to Sunday.
01:28They were shaved.
01:30They were brainwashed.
01:33Indoctrinated.
01:35Until such time that they were, you know, they accepted their fate.
01:40The abuse of children from the so-called angels of death is also very scary.
01:47For instance, if you say that you were sexually molested by Quiboloy,
01:56the angel of death will come in to get even with you.
01:59To get even means they will kill you and even your genes, your parents, your siblings.
02:10I did not deal with that quantity.
02:13I know that some of them were killed.
02:16Marantan has not yet confronted the victims in the media
02:19because they are yet to get a sworn statement.
02:22But there are more than 50 minors who have not yet been rescued from the KOJC.
02:27The PNP released a list of new sexual abuse charges against Quiboloy,
02:32called peke by one of his lawyers.
02:35I'm sure all of those were planned, manufactured.
02:40In getting to know Pastor Quiboloy,
02:43can you move, abuse, molest children?
02:48No. No.
02:49Never, not even 1% chance, can Pastor Quiboloy do that.
02:54While Quiboloy was in the PNP camp,
02:57the evidence was released and the case was filed.
02:59They followed the rules of court.
03:02They followed the rules of law.
03:04The accused is presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
03:09And second, allegation is not equivalent to guilt.
03:13He expects that we will not stop until these children get justice for them.
03:19Quiboloy's lawyer also appealed that the religious leader should not be judged immediately.
03:24He just said that it's just a fight.
03:26As long as the truth is in him.
03:28He is innocent.
03:30We know that this is not just about law.
03:33This is partly politics.
03:34Quiboloy and his accomplices were found guilty.
03:38In PASIG ROTC Branch 159,
03:40their case is for the arraignment of Qualified Human Trafficking
03:44that cannot be considered.
03:46Media coverage is prohibited,
03:48especially for minors, according to the PNP.
03:52Security has been distributed to the expected release of Quiboloy
03:55from the PNP Custodial Center to the court in PASIG.
03:58The arraignment of their case of child and sexual abuse
04:02in Quezon City ROTC Branch 106 is via videoconference.
04:05We don't want to give specifics as to the manner
04:10how he will be ushered out of the camp and enroute to PASIG
04:15because that is a security matter.
04:19But definitely, there will be convoys that will be escorted to PASIG.
04:27For GMA Integrated News,
04:29June veneration of your witness.
04:32The Department of Justice has recommended
04:34the arraignment of Qualified Trafficking of Persons
04:36and Kidnapping for Ransom
04:38to the two middle managers of the Pogo workers
04:41who were raided in Purak, Pampanga.
04:43Witness, Salima Refra.
04:48The complaint of the Pogo workers who were raided
04:51in Lucky South 99 in Purak, Pampanga
04:54will be heard by the Justice Department.
04:57The Department of Justice has recommended
05:00the arraignment of Qualified Trafficking of Persons
05:03and Kidnapping for Ransom
05:05to the two middle managers of the Pogo workers.
05:08According to the resolution,
05:10one of the victims was recruited for another job
05:13but he was forced to go to Purak, Pogo
05:16and was made a love scammer.
05:18When he refused, he was tortured using a baseball bat
05:22and he was locked in one of the rooms.
05:25Another victim was abducted in Manila and brought to Purak.
05:29His family was asked for a ransom of Php 300,000 in China.
05:34And when he could not pay,
05:36he was injured here and was put in a bed frame.
05:40Their organized crime moved here.
05:43They brought a bat.
05:45That's one of the reasons why the President of the Pogo
05:49doesn't want it anymore.
05:50Because of the social ills and the criminal aspect
05:55that is not acceptable to us.
05:58The two accused are now in Paok's custody.
06:01They need to finish their litigation
06:04and serve their sentence
06:06if they will be convicted
06:08before they face the many deportation cases against them.
06:12For the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission of Paok,
06:16it is a big deal to bring a case to the court
06:19for the recruitment of other victims or witnesses
06:22to be the big players of the illegal Pogos.
06:28If our witnesses and complainants are cooperative,
06:33it will be easier for us to bring our case to the big players
06:40like the former mayors, Alice Gu and Cassandra Ong.
06:47They are the big names that are mentioned here.
06:51In response to the complaints of Alice Gu,
06:54Comileg accepted Gu's counter-affidavit
06:57in the complaint of material misrepresentation against her.
07:01The complaint was based on Gu's false accusation
07:04in his Certificate of Candidacy for the 2022 elections.
07:08Because of that, the preliminary investigation can be stopped
07:12and the resolution of the controversy can continue.
07:16I want to prove that we are not just single out Mayor Alice Gu
07:20because we regularly have misrepresentation cases.
07:24Meanwhile, Senator Sherwin Gatchalian has information
07:28that three personalities with high positions in Pogo,
07:32in Bambantarlak and Purak Pampanga
07:35helped Gu's group to leave the country.
07:39They are Aduan Renmu, Wang Ji Yang, and Zhang Jie.
07:43The network also helped Gu to move to Malaysia, Singapore,
07:49and Indonesia where Gu was arrested.
07:52Aduan is one of the active personalities in their movement in Indonesia.
08:00Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore.
08:02Wang Ji Yang is one of them.
08:04Then there's Zhang Jie, the president of Lucky South.
08:07He booked hotels, facilitated travel.
08:11Gatchalian did not specify who among these people
08:14was written on Gu's papers in the last hearing.
08:17But he said that Wang Ji Yang, one of the bosses of Pogo,
08:21has a role in Gu's escape.
08:24He played a big role in their escape.
08:30Alice Gu and their group in Malaysia.
08:35Cassandra Lee was in their group in Malaysia.
08:39For GMA Integrated News, this is your reporter, Sunny Marafran.
08:45The former presidential spokesperson, Harry Roque,
08:47was again cited for contempt
08:49after not attending the hearing of the House Quad Committee earlier.
08:53Roque is now in the Supreme Court.
08:56Reporter, Chino Gaston.
09:01The former presidential spokesperson, Harry Roque,
09:03was again arrested by the House Sergeant-at-Arms
09:06after being cited for contempt in the second hearing.
09:09This is because he did not attend the hearing of the House Quad Committee earlier
09:13and repeatedly refused to submit documents
09:16that will explain his love for his property.
09:19In the first hearing,
09:21the committee cited the assets of the company
09:24Biancham Holdings and Trading of Roque.
09:26From only P125,000 in 2014,
09:31it became P67.7 million in 2018.
09:34Roque explained that they sold a lot in Paranaque
09:38that's why he was asked by the Evidence Chamber.
09:41He expressed his commitment to produce the documents,
09:45reason why we issued the subpoena.
09:47I move, Mr. Chair, that we hold Harry Roque in contempt,
09:51Attorney Harry Roque in contempt,
09:53for refusing to submit the documents.
09:55Remember, Roque was called to the hearing
09:58to ask about the allegations against him in Pogo sa Bansa.
10:02He was followed by Cassandra Lee Ong
10:05of Lucky South 99 in a meeting in Pagkor
10:08about the problem in the billing of Lucky South 99.
10:11The PAOCC also said that they saw a letter
10:15with Roque's name in a search in the Pogo Hub in Porac.
10:19Roque explained that he was never a lawyer
10:22of any illegal Pogo or Lucky South 99.
10:25He said that he accompanied Ong
10:27because he thought Lucky South was a victim of Estafa.
10:31He accompanied Ong because he wanted the whirlwinds
10:34connected to Lucky South to lead the energy projects
10:38that he was leading.
10:40Roque did not deny the new contempt against him.
10:44If they say, I received money from Pogo,
10:47they will present evidence.
10:49I will file the corresponding remedy before the Supreme Court.
10:53They arrested me, so I will show my freedom to our judiciary.
10:58While in the hearing of the Quadcoma,
11:00the former Davao Penal Colony Guardian,
11:03Corrections Senior Superintendent Gerardo Padilla,
11:06who he talked to, was arrested.
11:08Former President Rodrigo Duterte
11:10after other inmates killed the three Chinese drug lords.
11:14When we went to the investigation section,
11:17my cell phone rang and I answered it.
11:23According to the voices,
11:27it was the former President Rodrigo Duterte
11:32and he said, congrats Superintendent Padilla.
11:36Job well done, but you did a great job.
11:40Former PCSO General Manager Roina Garma
11:43was also called to the hearing.
11:45She is a member of the PNPC-IDG of Davao City.
11:48Padilla said in the previous hearing
11:51that Garma told her not to know about the operation
11:55against the three Chinese inmates.
11:57When I talked to her on the cell phone of the inmate Portalesa,
12:03Chief Garma told me,
12:07there are people working there.
12:10This is the one who cursed you, right?
12:13Yes, Your Honor.
12:14So, allow me to continue.
12:16Don't question anymore.
12:17Your family might be affected.
12:19So, you deny making this call?
12:21Yes, Your Honor.
12:22Garma also denied that she was close to the former President Rodrigo Duterte
12:27that's why she was appointed as the General Manager of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office.
12:32Garma was cried when she was cited in contempt
12:35for avoiding answering the questions of the committee.
12:38Meanwhile, she will be imprisoned in the House Detention Center
12:41until the hearing of the Quadcom is over
12:43or until she tells the truth
12:46that was blamed by the committee members.
