NewsTranscript
00:00After more than two years since the discovery of a body in Caloocan,
00:07the victim was already known to her relatives.
00:11The first thing she saw on March 22,
00:15was a face with duct tape and a lot of wounds.
00:18The alleged suspect who was arrested recently
00:21because of the missing case of Kidnapper Ransom
00:23and joined the police in pointing out where the body was thrown.
00:28Here is my report.
00:33The face was covered with duct tape.
00:36The arms and hands were covered with duct tape.
00:38There was also a bruise that looked like it was stabbed in the neck.
00:41And the different parts of the body were covered with wounds.
00:45This is the appearance of the body found in a place in Caloocan on March 22.
00:51And more than two years ago,
00:54this case became clear.
00:57Along with the Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit of the QCPD.
01:01The body was taken to the Police Funerary earlier.
01:04Along with her relative.
01:06That's her t-shirt.
01:08That's her t-shirt.
01:09Can you confirm, sir?
01:11Is that her?
01:12Yes, that's her.
01:13That's what she was wearing when she went missing.
01:15This is her, right?
01:17Yes, that's her.
01:18Thank you, sir.
01:19The victim was recognized by her parents, Noel Gonzaga, 29 years old.
01:24And their suspect, Alias Noli,
01:28who they saw on TV a few times, was arrested.
01:31Because of the separate case of Kidnapped for Ransom.
01:35He confessed voluntarily that he killed my son.
01:40Along with the suspect, he was taken to the QCPD
01:43where the victim's body was dumped in Caloocan.
01:47You killed my brother.
01:50Answer me!
01:51Here in Kalamanan, in front of a house.
01:55I just saw the foot.
01:56When I saw the foot, I ran because I was really scared.
02:01In the investigation of the QCPD.
02:03This victim is asking for money, worth 200,000.
02:09Because the suspect found out that his friend, his schoolmate,
02:14that he can do this.
02:16He contacted his mother to ask for 200,000.
02:20The victim's parents believe that the suspect has a connection.
02:24It's scary.
02:25Yes.
02:26It's really scary for these people.
02:28Kidnapped and Ransom.
02:31And that's it.
02:32Your son is one of the victims.
02:34Yes.
02:35They targeted him.
02:36Yes.
02:37According to the QCPD,
02:38Alias Noli, who is the suspect in this case,
02:41was with a group of the first arrested suspect
02:44in the kidnapping and killing of a businessman.
02:48They were also involved in the killing of the businessman.
02:53The name of the suspect is different,
02:55but the former actress, Rochelle Barameda, believes that
02:59this is the person who was involved in the killing of her brother,
03:04Ruby Rose Barameda.
03:06Many prove that she is the mastermind of the killing of the businessman.
03:14To the NBI, CIDG, and PSA,
03:18so that we can know their identity.
03:20If we can prove that we are a supplement to the fiscal,
03:22we can also charge her with hiding her name.
03:27For GMA Integrated News,
03:29Emilio Sumangil,
03:30Nakatutok,
03:3124 Hours.
03:33The Philippines has called on China
03:36to remove its monster ship
03:39from the exclusive economic zone of the country.
03:42Two Philippine Coast Guard ships are sailing here.
03:46Chino Gaston,
03:47Nakatutok.
03:51As of this time,
03:52we have two Coast Guard vessels
03:55pushing the China Coast Guard 5901
03:59to move further away from the coast of Zambales.
04:03BRP Teresa Magbanua,
04:05from Japan,
04:06and BRP Gabriela Silang,
04:08from France,
04:10to sail the CCG 5901,
04:12or the monster ship of the China Coast Guard.
04:15This is the third deployment of the monster ship
04:17in the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
04:19And last but not least,
04:20there are 77 nautical miles from Capones Island in Zambales.
04:25The National Maritime Council already called for the withdrawal
04:30of this monster ship from Philippine waters.
04:33The National Security Council believes
04:36that the mission of the monster ship is a threat.
04:38If the objective is to intimidate our fishermen,
04:41then this increases the result of the Philippine government
04:44to continue supporting our fishermen.
04:46The Foreign Ministry of China said
04:48that the Philippines should stop the so-called malicious accusation
04:52because their claims are anchored in the history of science and law.
04:57Even the Arbitral Tribunal of 2016 said
05:00that China's claim to almost the entire South China Sea is baseless.
05:05The Philippine Navy is ready
05:07in case China makes a move to return to the war zone.
05:12Among those,
05:13or the so-called red line,
05:15is the claim of Baho de Masinloc
05:18for the forced withdrawal of the BRP Sierra Madre
05:21in Iungin Shoal,
05:22the extraction of oil from the EEZ,
05:24which the Philippines has not yet approved,
05:26and the suspension of resupply missions
05:28to military outposts in the West Philippine Sea.
05:31Meanwhile,
05:32the capabilities of some of the five underwater drones
05:36obtained from the EEZ of the country,
05:38particularly from Ilocos Region,
05:39Kalayaan Island Group,
05:41Misamis Oriental,
05:42and Maymas Bate,
05:43were already examined.
05:44However,
05:45it is not known to the public
05:46which country these drones came from.
05:48These are designed to gather mathematic data,
05:52specifically depth, salinity, oxygen level, temperature of the water.
05:59This information will have commercial value.
06:02It will have academic value.
06:05It could also have,
06:06with the criss-crossing of information right now,
06:09it could also have military purposes and applications.
06:12For GMA Integrated News,
06:13Chino Gaston,
06:1424 Hours.
06:17In addition to the problems of spaghetti wire,
06:22illegal connections or jumpers
06:24were targeted by the Meralco.
06:27Can Metro Manila also do
06:29what was done in some provinces
06:31to build cables under the ground?
06:34Mark Salazar found out.
06:39Usually, in Metro Manila,
06:41these kinds of posts
06:42are covered in mud
06:43and are full of cables.
06:46It is a threat to the safety of the community
06:49and sometimes to the motorists.
06:51If there is a vehicle passing by,
06:52like this one,
06:53there is a vehicle passing by,
06:54it is in the sand.
06:55Wi-Fi.
06:56They pull it
06:57because sometimes there is a spark.
06:59These are not just electricity cables.
07:01There are also internet cables
07:03and CCTVs
07:04in both posts.
07:06That is why this one
07:07almost gave up
07:08because of the weight it carries.
07:10In this place,
07:11this is what the posts look like
07:13in the nearby Metro
07:15where the orange cables are attached.
07:18They call this a spaghetti connection.
07:20Sometimes, there is a fire.
07:24We are afraid.
07:26In the past,
07:27when a fire broke out here,
07:30it was good that it was early.
07:32It was really scary.
07:33The residents themselves
07:34will say
07:35that sometimes,
07:36the cables thicken
07:37in the unguarded posts
07:39are illegal connections or jumpers.
07:42There are a lot of jumpers here.
07:43A lot.
07:44A lot.
07:45Why do you say that?
07:46Because the electricity is cut off.
07:48Is it easy to use jumpers?
07:49It's easy.
07:50The electricity is cut off.
07:52How do you know?
07:54Do you use jumpers?
07:55No.
07:56How do you know?
07:57I just heard it.
08:01It's dangerous.
08:02The electricity is cut off.
08:04The jumpers were targeted earlier
08:06by Meralco
08:07in their anti-illegal
08:08wire attachment operations
08:10in FC Tuazon, Pateros.
08:12More than losing their income,
08:14the fire is a threat to the communities
08:17if the jumpers are abandoned.
08:19It's not just an eyesore,
08:20but public safety is also a concern
08:24if we don't fix this.
08:27Can we just build all the cables
08:30like what was done
08:31in the streets of heritage houses
08:33in Iloilo City?
08:34That was also done
08:35in BGEC in Taguig,
08:37a place in Quezon City,
08:39and even in Davao City.
08:41Meralco said
08:42it's difficult
08:43in places like Metro Manila
08:45where there's no space
08:46underneath.
08:48It can do it if it can,
08:50but there are considerations involved
08:53such as proper education,
08:56where it can be placed,
09:00urban planning,
09:01close coordination
09:03with the local government unit
09:05on the area
09:07where it can be implemented.
09:09It's expensive,
09:10which is why
09:11big developers are leading.
09:13If Meralco is satisfied,
09:15will their customers agree
09:17to a higher per kilowatt hour rate?
09:19Of course, we don't want
09:21the cost of electricity to increase
09:23because at the end of the day,
09:25our mandate is
09:26the least cost principle.
09:28So all of these things
09:29you need to balance.
09:30For GMA Integrated News,
09:33Mark Salazar,
09:34for 24 Hours.
09:37Five were arrested
09:38on charges of
09:40NBI agents
09:41for running away.
09:42The 12 Pogo Boss
09:44arrested in Panayake City,
09:45was fined P300,000 each.
09:48John Consulta was arrested.
09:55As seen in the video,
09:56the Chinese Bosses
09:58who were held by the NBI
09:59were walking
10:00towards the three cars
10:01that were running towards them
10:03in exchange for the stolen money.
10:05When the money was confirmed,
10:07the NBI was immediately arrested.
10:15Get out!
10:18Don't look!
10:20Even a Chinese interpreter
10:22who served as a middleman
10:23was arrested.
10:26They were fined P900,000
10:29for running away
10:31for the first batch
10:32of three Chinese
10:33who wanted freedom.
10:35According to the NBI,
10:3612 Chinese were arrested
10:38from the Pogo Hub in Panayake
10:40and were fined.
10:41They also negotiated
10:43with the NBI agents
10:44of the NBI Cybercrime Division
10:45and STF
10:46who immediately took the money.
10:48They negotiated
10:50for P300,000
10:54per head.
10:56Our agents
10:58took the money
11:01for the 12 agents.
11:03They did it batch by batch.
11:06They sent P900,000
11:09for the first three.
11:13When asked where the money came from
11:15and why more than four agencies
11:17were operating in Panayake?
11:20Our report came from
11:22Island Cove.
11:23They transferred the money
11:25to the subject building.
11:26We identified the supervisors
11:28and their status.
11:30There were three bosses there.
11:32We got the information
11:34from their conference room.
11:36We found out in flagranti
11:38that they were engaged
11:39in love scam,
11:40crypto scam,
11:42investment scam.
11:43One of the Philippines
11:46was the one shown
11:47in the Congress
11:48of the Catholics.
11:50One of the Philippine subjects
11:52we arrested
11:53executed an extrajudicial confession
11:56with the assistance of a council
11:58and admitted that
12:00there was a Chinese national
12:02who was the big boss
12:04of these foreigners
12:06who were working.
12:07He also produced money.
12:10The total number of NBI arrested
12:12was 17,
12:13including the five Filipinos.
12:15We interviewed the Filipino
12:17who brought the money
12:18to the agencies.
12:20Our boss called us
12:23to go to a place
12:26to pick up people.
12:28He gave me an ecobag
12:31and I don't know
12:33what's inside the ecobag.
12:35He was charged with
12:37corruption of public official
12:38and Anti-Financial Account Scamming Act
12:40of the foreigners
12:41who were jailed
12:42in the NBI's detention facility.
12:44According to PAOK,
12:4580% of the 400 illegal POGO
12:48monitored in the country
12:50were completely stopped in 2024.
12:5380% of those 400
12:55were really stopped.
12:56But their stop
12:58doesn't mean
12:59they were totally stopped.
13:01That's what we're chasing
13:02on a small scale.
13:03This year,
13:0427,000 POGO workers
13:07were forced to leave the country.
13:09These POGO workers
13:10already have a tourist visa
13:12and they already left.
13:13That's why they should have
13:14already left the Philippines.
13:16The foreigners
13:17who are still sitting
13:18at their computers
13:19and working
13:21are undesirable aliens.
13:23They shouldn't be working here
13:25because they are tourists.
13:27The monitoring of PAOK
13:29continues,
13:30especially in operations
13:31in different parts of the country.
13:33There are also in Northern Luzon,
13:34in Visayas,
13:35there are reports.
13:36In groups of 20 to 50,
13:40they form groups,
13:41they rent two rooms,
13:44and they conduct
13:45scamming activities.
13:47For GMA Integrated News,
13:49John Consulta,
13:51for 24 Hours.
13:53Just after the news
13:55that COMELEC stopped
13:57printing ballots
13:59for the 2025 National Election.
14:03This is followed by
14:04the Temporary Restraining Order
14:06initiated by the Supreme Court
14:08against the decision of COMELEC
14:10to disqualify some candidates
14:13and not include their names
14:15in the ballot.
14:17My fellow countrymen,
14:18something is happening.
14:20Not only in Baguio,
14:22but below 20 degrees Celsius
14:24today,
14:26everywhere,
14:27and to the extent
14:28of the effects of the pandemic.
14:30Let's find out
14:31what's going on.
14:35In the next few days,
14:37don't be surprised
14:39if when you wake up in the morning,
14:41the weather is even colder
14:44than your ex.
14:46And even in Manila,
14:48you feel like you're just strolling
14:50in Baguio.
14:52Like here in the Tagalag Barangay
14:54in Valenzuela.
14:55Earlier,
14:56it was almost noon,
14:58but the weather is still gloomy.
15:01Here they are,
15:03wearing jackets
15:05of our machempuan.
15:07Compared to other places,
15:09it's colder here.
15:11There are fish,
15:12the wind is strong.
15:13You really feel like strolling.
15:15That's just it.
15:17They say it's an extra challenge in the morning
15:19from waking up in bed
15:21to taking a bath.
15:23Now, it's just in the middle.
15:24How long ago?
15:25Sometimes,
15:26sometimes,
15:27in the bathroom.
15:28Now,
15:29it's just 5 minutes.
15:31It's so cold.
15:32You need hot water.
15:35It's hard to take a bath
15:37because it's so cold,
15:38especially in the early morning.
15:40Today,
15:41according to the forecast,
15:42the temperature dropped to 15.4 degrees Celsius
15:45in Baguio City.
15:4717.6 degrees Celsius
15:50in the nearby Latrinidad, Benguet.
15:53In Malaybalay, Bukidnon,
15:5618 degrees Celsius.
15:58Even though that's not true,
16:00the wind is strong
16:03and the topography is more affected
16:05or the area is higher
16:07according to the forecast.
16:09It's also cold in Tanay, Rizal
16:11that reached 19.6 degrees Celsius.
16:15Some parts of Cagayan
16:17experienced the lowest temperature.
16:21Aurora,
16:22Bataan,
16:23and Quezon Provinces.
16:25Baguio is also experiencing cold winds
16:28in Metro Manila,
16:30especially at night and in the morning.
16:33Earlier this morning,
16:35the temperature reached 23.6 degrees Celsius.
16:40But wait,
16:41according to the forecast,
16:43it's possible that the weather will get colder
16:46in the next few days.
16:48The peak of our cold weather
16:50is January to the first part of February.
16:54The cold wind from the northeast
16:57is also from Siberia.
16:59The wind reaches us coldly.
17:03So during this season,
17:05the weather we're experiencing is also cold.
17:08In other parts of the country,
17:10aside from the cold weather,
17:12it's also possible to experience rains.
17:16Our fellow countrymen,
17:18we don't feel that way here in Metro Manila.
17:20It rains in Cagayan Valley and around Quezon.
17:24So we always check the weather
17:26and we always bring an umbrella
17:28if we see cloudy skies with rains
17:31or cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms.
17:33We always bring an umbrella.
17:35That's why it's important for everyone
17:37to do their best to avoid getting sick.
17:41Usually, acute upper respiratory tract infection
17:45is what we get because it's cold.
17:47It's because there's a lot of insects and mosquitos.
17:50Sometimes, we also get sore throat.
17:53That's why it's important to always wear an umbrella
17:56when it's cold.
17:57But the best thing to do is...
18:00to hug your spouse.
18:02That's number one.
18:04Number one.
18:05So it's really warm.
18:07For GMA Integrated News,
