00:00Meanwhile, the House Quad Committee continues its hearing on the war on drugs, extrajudicial killings, and illegal smugglers.

00:07Tina Panganiban-Perez has an update on the spot.

00:20Raffi, the testimony of former President Rodrigo Duterte to the committee was returned by the House Quad Committee lead chair, Robert Ace Barbers,

00:30who ordered the police to kill drug addicts or to force them to fight.

00:37Barbers also mentioned that the committee proved that there is a reward system for drug addicts.

00:44One of the results of the Quad Committee's hearings is that the committee approved a bill

00:50considering EJK as a heinous crime and charged it with a heavier sentence.

00:57The Quad Committee also approved a bill for the removal of visas for birth certificates illegally obtained by foreigners

01:05after many Chinese nationals claimed to be Filipinos and were involved in drug trafficking and POGO.

01:13The Quad Committee also approved a bill banning POGO.

01:18Barbers and Quad Committee co-chair, Bienvenido Abante,

01:24and other vloggers who spread misinformation about the Quad Committee.

01:28Abante said that the Quad Committee was formed because the country is angry with illegal drugs, POGO, extrajudicial killings,

01:36and illegal purchases of land by foreigners in the country.

01:40The hearing was supposed to start at 9.30 this morning, but it was delayed by an hour.

01:48Thank you very much, Tina Panganiban-Perez.

01:51Vice President Sara Duterte was no-show again in the investigation of the National Bureau of Investigation.

01:56Only the legal counsel of the B.C. came.

01:58He will not come.

02:00That's all. That's all I know.

02:02In the future, is it possible for him to come?

02:04I can't say. I can't say that.

02:07The second president chose to face the media more.

02:10Ania, he said that he doesn't expect a fair investigation.

02:15Because if you saw the message of the president, he said,

02:24these are the criminal acts that I will not let pass.

02:29So, we can see the pronouncements of the president.

02:36There is bias there.

02:40So, even if they say that there is an investigation,

02:44at the beginning, they already decided to file cases.

02:48Before this, the NBI assured that their investigation will be impartial.

02:53And they still haven't closed the door for the B.C.

02:57Our consensus remains clear that the investigation will be fair.

03:04We will not kill anyone.

03:05The investigation will be impartial.

03:09The NBI is the institution that will trust our countrymen.

03:14The investigation was based on the statements of Vice President Duterte

03:18against the president, first lady, and house speaker.

03:22On the other hand, the B.C. said,

03:24Ma'am, do you regret saying or making such threat to the president,

03:29and the first lady, and the house speaker?

03:32No, ma'am.

03:33It's a good thing that they know that if I die,

03:36I will not die in vain.

03:40Duterte denies that there is a threat to his life,

03:42and this is documented.

03:44But he doesn't want to give details to law enforcement agencies

03:48because he doesn't trust them.

03:50He wrote to AFP Chief of Staff General Romeo Bronner Jr.

03:54that if a member of the Vice Presidential Security and Protection Group is pulled out again,

04:00he will not be accepted as a replacement.

04:03We are exploring private security services.

04:06There are professional security services,

04:09so that's not considered as a private army.

04:13The second president has already accepted whatever will happen.

04:16He will also face the cases that will be filed in court,

04:19even if he reaches the point of imprisonment.

04:22I do not plan to leave the country,

04:25or I do not plan to hide if there will be a warrant of arrest,

04:29mainly because my children are here.

04:33Impeachment complaints against Duterte are ready to be filed

04:36regarding the use of confidential funds.

04:39Although Duterte denies that he has nothing to explain,

04:42he has nothing to do with the preparation of acknowledgment receipts

04:46that were released to the camera.

04:48It was questioned if there are real people who received money from confidential funds.

04:54It is wrong to say that I am evasive.

04:56I am definitely not answering questions about the use of the funds,

05:01about confidential funds because it pertains to national security

05:04and the lives of the people involved in intelligence operations.

05:10It is clear that the use of confidential funds is related to the 2028 elections.

05:17If you are in aid of legislation,

05:19and you want to legislate about confidential funds,

05:22you do not target one office.

05:25Why not call the office of the president

05:27who has billions and billions of confidential funds?

05:29The House Bills 11192 and 11193 were filed in the camera.

05:37It is far from having a clearer regulation

05:39on the use of confidential and intelligence funds,

05:42and to punish for misuse,

05:44and to force the special disbursing officers

05:48who hold confidential funds.

05:51Here, originally,

05:54if you are an SDO,

05:56for now, as long as you are appointed by the head of agency,

06:01you can be an SDO.

06:03So here, in our new law that was passed,

06:07there are qualifications that were added.

06:11Number one,

06:14of course, you need to be a permanent official

06:20or employee of the agency.

06:23And you need to have a salary grade 24.
