NewsTranscript
00:00Vice President Sara Duterte wasted an opportunity to give her statement on the investigation of the NBI according to the Justice Department.
00:10Witness, Salimere Fran.
00:14The Department of Justice is ashamed because Vice President Sara Duterte chose not to give a statement on the ongoing investigation of the NBI.
00:24For Justice Undersecretary Jesse Andres, Vice President Sara Duterte wasted this opportunity.
00:29It is unfortunate, I should say, that the Vice President did not avail of that opportunity to present her side because due process is being afforded her.
00:38I do not understand why she does not want to be part of the process which could possibly exculpate her or get her out of criminal liability.
00:48VP Sara did not give up even though the NBI ordered her to do so in the belief that she will not get a fair investigation.
00:57Vice President Duterte is being investigated for grave threat and possible violation of the Anti-Terror Law.
01:03The vice president said yesterday that she did not regret that she said that she talked to the president, first lady and house speaker, even though someone killed her.
01:15Ma'am do you regret making such threat to the president and the first lady and the house speaker?
01:23No ma'am. It's good that they know that if I die, I will not die in vain.
01:31This statement came to the DOJ.
01:34What we heard from her statement is that she did not regret her words.
01:43To us, what we understand is that she seems to be serious in the words she left and she did not take it back.
01:52For now, their investigation of the evidence against Vice President Duterte is ongoing.
01:57We will file a complaint with the witnesses to establish the crimes that are included in the NBI's complaint.
02:06We are asking the vice president and all the citizens that the Department of Justice will be fair and just in their evaluation if they need to file a case or not.
02:21Yesterday, the vice president said that he is looking at the possibility of getting private security if the members of the Vice Presidential Security and Protection Group or VPSG will be replaced.
02:33The AFP said that they will still uphold their duties.
02:38The AFP will provide security accordingly. We will make sure sir that the security of the vice president will not be compromised.
02:46The PNP will respect the decision of VP Duterte in favor of his security.
02:52That's sad to hear that we were not trusted, but we want to assure our vice president that we will make sure that the security forces will do their job to protect their principles.
03:04For GMA Integrated News, I'm Sanima Refran. Your Sexy.
03:10Mga Kapusol, it's been only 13 days and it's already Christmas.
03:14And the home sweet home in Pulilan, Bulacan was made into a Christmas sparkling home by its owner.
03:20And the witness live is Jamie Santos.
03:24Jamie, are you looking forward to it? Wow!
03:30Fia, you can see behind me how much this Christmas house in Pulilan, Bulacan is looking forward to it.
03:36A family opened their house to the public so that the public can enjoy their Christmas decors.
03:49This house in the length of Barangay Lumbak in Pulilan, Bulacan is very eye-catching.
03:54It is full of colorful and sparkling lights.
03:59From the balcony to the walkway, there are Christmas decors.
04:04Snowman is a favorite of children and families visiting the Pulilan Christmas House.
04:10Another fave spot is the Santa figure with its sleigh and reindeers.
04:15There is also a toy soldier and a Christmas tree with a high fortified roof.
04:20It was reduced by 10 feet because of the storm.
04:26According to the owner of the house, everything started because of a Christmas light.
04:33I started by picking up a junk shop.
04:36I picked up a Christmas light.
04:39It has a white color.
04:43So I said, can I ask for this?
04:46They gave it to me.
04:48Then I will teach you which one it is.
04:50All the white ones on top.
04:52He is fond of LED lights.
04:54He studied these.
04:56Gradually, they designed the house of the Christmas lights.
05:01This was noticed by those who pass by their place.
05:05I opened the gate since 2015.
05:10Because it is in the balcony.
05:13It looks like you have a lot of stuff.
05:16So I said, I want a gate.
05:18So that they can park.
05:21That's what they want.
05:23To take pictures.
05:25You should not do that.
05:28The smiles of those who entered their house
05:31are also happy for their family.
05:34When they are happy, it is good.
05:37Of course, it makes us happy.
05:39We watched them happily tonight.
05:42It is good.
05:43It is good for the children.
05:45How about you?
05:46You feel it.
05:47Yes.
05:48It relieves tiredness and stress.
05:51Because the lights are beautiful.
05:54My son enjoyed it.
05:55Snowman is my favorite.
05:57What is your favorite?
05:59Santa Claus.
06:01The lights are fun.
06:04Even the children are happy.
06:12At 5.30 p.m., the lights of Pulilan Christmas House will start to light up.
06:17It is good for those who can walk and take pictures.
06:22It lasts until 10 p.m.
06:25And live from Pulilan, Bulacan, for GMA Integrated News,
06:29I am Jaime Santos, your witness.
06:33An official of PNP and a former chief of PDEA
06:36was contempted by the House Quad Committee
06:39who sealed the arrest order in the hospital
06:41for Police Colonel Hector Grijaldo,
06:44the former chief of the Mandaluyong Police.
06:46He admitted several times that he did not obey the committee's orders.
06:50Grijaldo is also among those who are being investigated
06:53for the murder of the former PCSO board secretary, Wesley Barayuga.
06:58Wilkins Villanueva, the former director general of PDEA,
07:01was also contempted by the committee.
07:04This is because of their repeated lies
07:07and their denial that he has something to do
07:10with the warrantless arrest of Jed Seath,
07:13the husband of the drug suspect, Alan Seath,
07:16two decades ago.
07:18According to the Quad Committee,
07:19on January 13, the contempt and detention order
07:22against Villanueva will be effective,
07:25especially for Christmas.
07:29Those living in the 6-kilometer danger zone of the Canlaon Volcano
07:33are still being evacuated,
07:34even though there are fewer smogs in the volcano.
07:38And of the more than 80,000 target evacuees,
07:41less than half have been evacuated.
07:43Witness, Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV.
07:49Thin volcanic smog was seen this morning
07:53when aerial surveys were conducted around the volcano
07:56by some officials of the Office of Civil Defense at PHVOCS.
07:59According to OCD Region 6,
08:01even though there is less smoke,
08:04the sulfur dioxide still smells
08:06when it enters their helicopter.
08:09The task force of Canlaon said
08:11that all ash emissions and eruptive activity of the volcano
08:14are only in the summit crater.
08:16Around the volcano,
08:17there is still a problem for those who are left behind.
08:19Like the resort in La Carlota City, Negros Occidental,
08:22where the swimming pool is full of ash.
08:25Even the important animals are affected.
08:28Goat, cow, chicken.
08:32Goat doesn't eat.
08:35It's bitter.
08:37Ash.
08:38If you touch it, it will kill you.
08:41That's why the GMA Kapuso Foundation
08:43has sent help to the residents of La Carlota City.
08:47Thank you to everyone who helped us.
08:50Thank you to the Kapuso Foundation.
08:55Thank you to the PHVOCS.
08:59Thank you to everyone.
09:01Thank you to GMA Kapuso.
09:03Thank you to everyone who helped us.
09:08According to the latest OCD report,
09:10almost 10,000 families or 9,942
09:14evacuated following the eruption of the volcano.
09:17But that's less than half of their target evacuees
09:20from the 6-kilometer danger zone.
09:22According to the OCD,
09:23they are still trying to evacuate people
09:26despite the smaller amount of smog from the volcano.
09:30What we are worried about is what can happen.
09:33Because of the indicators,
09:37it will erupt again.
09:40And it will probably erupt even more.
09:43According to the Regional Disaster Risk Reduction
09:45and Management Council 6,
09:47the alert level of the volcano can be raised
09:49based on the monitoring of PHVOCS.
09:51There's really a chance.
09:53It's basically elevated to alert level 4.
09:55That's why to avoid double handling,
09:57we are already planning for level 4.
09:59In one resolution,
10:01the Negros Occidental Provincial DRRMC recommended
10:04that the state of calamity should be under control.
10:07It is expected to discuss this
10:09in the session of the Panlalawigan Bukas.
10:11For JEMAI Integrated News,
10:13I'm Aileen Pedrezo of JEMAI Regional TV,
10:16your witness.
10:19Marikina Mayor Marci Fiodoro appealed
10:21the decision of the Kamalek 1st Division
10:23to cancel her Certificate of Candidacy
10:26for the inauguration of the 1st District of Marikina.
10:29As of now,
10:30the Supreme Court has not yet reached a decision.
10:33Your witness, Joseph Moro.
10:39The 1st Division of Kamalek cancelled
10:41the Certificate of Candidacy of Marikina Mayor Marci Fiodoro
10:44to run as a congresswoman in the 1st District of Marikina.
10:47The reason is that there is material misrepresentation
10:50or wrong information from Fiodoro to her COC
10:53regarding the residency or where she lives.
10:56Mayor Marci came from the 1st District.
10:59If I'm not mistaken,
11:01she moved to the 2nd District.
11:03If I'm not mistaken,
11:05she moved to the 1st District again in August.
11:08The assessment of the 1st Division
11:13is that she will be gone for one year
11:15before the next election of May.
11:17According to our law,
11:19you need to have a residence,
11:21the word used is residence of one year,
11:25in the same place where you will run.
11:29She will be gone for one year
11:31before or immediately preceding the day of the election.
11:35In Fiodoro's COC,
11:37she stated that she is from Barangay San Roque
11:39in the 1st District of Marikina
11:41based on the Transfer of Registration
11:43approved by the Election Registration Board of Kamalek
11:45in October this year.
11:47But this was countered by two petitioners,
11:49including Senator Coco Pimentel,
11:51who is her main opponent in the 1st District.
11:54Fiodoro moved to the 2nd District
11:56because she plans to run there
11:58as part of her alliance with Pimentel.
12:01But suddenly, Fiodoro's decision changed
12:03and she will only run in District 1.
12:06That's why in September 2024,
12:08she moved to the 1st District
12:10approved by the local Kamalek.
12:12But this was not approved by the Kamalek 1st Division.
12:15This became an issue.
12:16Did I transfer?
12:18Did I complete the residency requirement?
12:20If it was not established,
12:22where is she a resident?
12:25Fiodoro said that she presented strong evidence
12:28that her residence is in District 1.
12:30She said that when she met the mayor,
12:32that was the address that she used.
12:34She thinks that the Kamalek 1st Division made a mistake
12:37that's why she will appeal the decision.
12:39Pimentel said that no one can blame Fiodoro
12:42but herself.
12:54According to Kamalek, this is only in the 1st Division
13:02and Fiodoro has five days to get a decision
13:05to appeal to Kamalek and Bank.
13:07The issue could even reach the Supreme Court.
13:10The filing of COC is already done,
13:12the period of registration is also done
13:14and that includes the transfer of registration.
13:18That's why there's no transfer.
13:20Kamalek Chairman George Garcia inhibited the case
13:23because he and Pimentel were both clients of Fiodoro
13:26when he was still an election lawyer.
13:28For GMA Integrated News, I'm Joseph Morong.
