00:00The storm that was left behind by the typhoon to some residents of Pililya, Rizal has returned
00:05because of the rapid rise of the floodwaters.
00:08The residents were quickly evacuated.
00:10Maris Umal was live on the scene.
00:12Maris!
00:16Emil, because of the heavy rain, the Pililya River reached a critical level earlier.
00:22That's why some residents here on the side of the river decided to evacuate to the evacuation center.
00:31This is what the residents of Hulo, Pililya, Rizal experienced when the typhoon entered.
00:39The floodwaters reached the roof so it was difficult for them to evacuate.
00:48Earlier, the water levels in Sitio Tabaco, Lipat-Lipat River became high because of the heavy rain.
00:57The water in the Pililya River reached a critical level of almost 15 meters.
01:05That's why the residents of the barangay decided to go to different places on the side of the river
01:10to encourage the residents to evacuate.
01:13It will be very difficult if the typhoon or the typhoon reaches us at night.
01:20Then we will have to evacuate.
01:23Some residents of M.L. Quezon, Barangay Hulo decided to evacuate early because of the heavy rain.
01:29They experienced extreme fear when the floodwaters reached their area.
01:35I don't want the typhoon to happen again.
01:39I was trapped here.
01:41They rescued us until the water level reached the roof.
01:46I was trapped here.
01:48I fell from the roof.
01:50When I came out, I was dead.
01:53Even the senior citizen, Nanay Raquel, decided to evacuate even if she's alone.
01:58I was nervous when I was walking.
02:02I couldn't sleep at night.
02:04The rain was heavy.
02:06I had a phobia that it will be difficult for us to evacuate again.
02:13But because of the heavy rain yesterday and there was no flood yet,
02:16many residents were left in their homes.
02:19The barangay prepared a clean truck full of trash, boats and tricycles
02:24to be used in case the residents need to be rescued.
02:27It's been less than 20 minutes and it's already big.
02:30When we monitored, it was only 6 meters.
02:34When the rain started, it became 10 meters.
02:37We asked them to go to the barangay for evacuation as early as possible.
02:44With the number of people we're rescuing, we don't know where to start.
02:54Emil, because the storm is expected to landfall tonight,
02:57the authorities are more vigilant in monitoring the water level in the river.
03:06The authorities are sure that there's enough food, blankets and blankets
03:11in the evacuation centers for those who want to evacuate.
03:15Here's the latest news from Pililya, Rizal.
03:17Back to you, Emil.
03:19Thank you very much, Maryse Umali.

03:59There are houses that are almost completely destroyed.
04:03Rescue operations are also difficult in some places.

04:57The families of four people who were affected by the landslide in Karamoran, Catanduanes,
05:02are now in peace.
05:04In the midst of Hurricane Christine,
05:06among the three minor victims,
05:08Rafi Tima was the one who was affected.
05:14There's nothing he can do but cry.
05:16He left Dasilio after learning about what happened to his family in Karamoran, Catanduanes.
05:21From his workplace in Quezon City.
05:24Early in the morning, the landslide hit their house.
05:28It rained non-stop after Hurricane Christine.
05:31His 7-year-old daughter was killed.
05:34His two younger siblings were also killed.
05:37I was just talking to him yesterday.
05:41In a video call?
05:42Yes, in a video call.
05:43That morning, he called me and said,
05:48He called me and said,
05:49Luian is dead.
05:50Even my brother is dead.
05:52He was rescued,
05:54but Liza doesn't know the condition of his father,
05:56another brother,
05:58and two nephews who were rushed to the hospital.
06:00There are landslides happening in their area,
06:03but this is the first time Liza knows that someone is injured.
06:07This was also the first time for his family.
06:09He wanted to go home immediately,
06:11but he couldn't.
06:13The ship is sailing.
06:16But if you're traveling, go home immediately.
06:18I'm going home because my family went there.
06:21I love them.
06:24His daughter, siblings, and nephews are now in a church
06:28near their house that was destroyed.
06:30For GMA Integrated News,
06:32Rafi Tima was there for 24 hours.
06:36There are children and babies who were rescued
06:39by the rescue operation in Lopez, Quezon.
06:43Jun Veneracion was there live.
06:46Jun?
06:50Mel, here in Barangay Gomez,
06:53in the town of Lopez, Quezon,
06:55the rescuers did not stop the rescue
06:58of the affected residents
07:00even though it was still early in the morning.
07:02However, the brownout continued,
07:05which made the rescue operation more difficult.
07:10We need to rescue them
07:14because the water level here is very high.
07:19There's the mother.
07:20Because of the strong rainfall caused by Hurricane Christine
07:23and the rapid flood,
07:25the rescuers helped rescue the residents
07:29of Barangay Gomez, Lopez, Quezon
07:31from last night until this early morning.
07:34There's another one.
07:35Okay, I'll take care of it.
07:38Okay.
07:40Another one?
07:42Okay, there's another one here.
07:45In this situation,
07:47we need to act quickly because it's hard to fight the dark.
07:50A lot can happen.
07:52The pre-emptive evacuation was done early in the morning
07:56but there were still people left in their homes.
07:59The rescuers were able to breathe easily
08:02when the light came on
08:03and the people needed to be rescued were rescued.
08:06In case the flood gets worse,
08:08we will put a roof.
08:10Fortunately, we don't have any reported casualties.
08:15In the whole town of Lopez,
08:16there were 400 evacuees.
08:19I'm afraid of the water because the water level is high.
08:23That's why I'm nervous.
08:25Earlier this morning,
08:26they were coming back to their homes.
08:31Because of the flood,
08:3212 barangays were flooded.
08:34But now, only 7 are affected.
08:37The water level is up to here.
08:40That's last night?
08:41Yes, last night.
08:42Just now, just before the water level went down,
08:44it was up to here.
08:45But even if the flood comes,
08:48the residents are still not able to leave their homes.
08:50Maybe later, there will be water again.
08:53I'm afraid that we won't be able to leave for a while.
08:58Mayor, for now,
08:59only the lower barangays are affected by the flood.
09:02So, if it doesn't follow,
09:04the strong rain yesterday,
09:07tomorrow,
09:08there will be no flood in the affected areas.
09:11Mayor.
09:12I hope so.
09:13And thank you very much, June Veneration.
09:16In the face of abuse and poverty,
09:19Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy,
09:21of the former members of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ,
09:24was finally arrested.
09:26He was a victim,
09:27or what?
09:28In the midst of their opposition to the Senate hearing,
09:30Baki Pulido was arrested.
09:35Finally, Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy was arrested
09:37in the Senate Committee on Women, Children,
09:39Family Relations, and Gender Equality.
09:42Here, he was confronted by some former members of the KOJC
09:45who accused him of abuse.
09:48Among them, the Ukrainian, Yulia Voronina.
09:51This is Alia Sofia,
09:53who is now showing her face
09:55in the re-enactment of the sexual abuse she experienced.
09:58He had the key of each room,
10:01and just in the middle of the night,
10:03he come to my room
10:05and have sex with me.
10:08Then,
10:09and you cannot run away.
10:14Did you sexually abuse women and minors?
10:18Did you use religion to sexually abuse them?
10:22There is no truth to what they said.
10:25If they have criminal charges against me,
10:30they are free to file a case
10:33and I will face it.
10:35Q. Buloy was also confronted
10:37by one of the original members of the KOJC,
10:39Teresita Valdehueza,
10:41who said she experienced several sexual abuses
10:44in the 1990s.
10:47It was always out of fear that I obeyed,
10:51a fear mixed with anxiety.
10:53It was only when I left the group
10:56that I finally clearly understood
11:00that the man I had believed to be God's chosen and holy
11:05was an imposter,
11:07oppressor,
11:09and deceiver.
11:11He manipulated me
11:13using his authority and power
11:15as God's unwanted.
11:17She also set up a quota system for workers
11:19to fundraise.
11:21Some KOJC workers have a quota of P500 to P1,000 a day
11:25in selling rice.
11:27Valdehueza, on the other hand,
11:29has a quota of P10 to P15 million
11:31from Karuling.
11:33Many members of the KOJC
11:35struggled to find money,
11:37but she saw how it got lost
11:39when it was sent to America
11:41by some of the KOJC officials.
12:05Valdehueza also experienced severe punishment
12:07within seven months
12:09as a result of false accusations
12:11including the theft of P3 million
12:13from the KOJC
12:15and collusion with other ministers.
12:17In addition to the punishment,
12:19they call it dry fasting
12:21or not being able to eat or drink
12:23for seven to ten days.
12:25Did you allow the abuse and torture
12:27to your members,
12:29such as the dry fasting punishment?
12:31No.
12:33The Kingdom's policy
12:35is not
12:37to allow people
12:39to fast
12:41in order to die.
12:43According to PNP,
12:45their investigation shows
12:47that Kibuloy raped
12:49more than 200 women.
12:51This room is the bedroom
12:53of Mr. Kibuloy
12:55in the Bible school.
12:57There is a bedroom,
12:59something like that.
13:01The lower right corner
13:03is the twin tub jacuzzi.
13:05This is where the sexual exploitation
13:07oftentimes
13:09is being perpetrated.
