00:00This is Philippine Government.
00:07Live from the GMA Network Center, this is 24 Horas.
00:15Good evening, Luzon Visayas and Mindanao.
00:20A two-year-old boy in Quezon City was injured in a hostage situation.
00:25He was hit in the chest while his mother and father were injured.
00:29He was stabbed and watched by the suspect.
00:32The hostage taker was also arrested after being shot by a local man
00:36who found out that his victim's father was a child.
00:41It was reported that he was shot by James Agustin.
00:46Don't come near him. He's already injured. Don't come near him.
00:50A man with a two-year-old girl was armed with a rifle in his right hand
00:55in Roque 2 in Barangay Pasong, Quezon City last night.
01:00The boy was hostaged by the girl who was stolen from his parents' house.
01:08The next discovery was that the boy was in a jeep with the suspect's wife.
01:14The mother of the boy and his grandfather were driving the jeep.
01:17In the CCTV footage, the jeep was following a barangay ambulance
01:21after it was asked by a man.
01:23In this CCTV footage, the jeep and ambulance were driving
01:27from Visayas Avenue to Elliptical Road.
01:30They also followed the operatives of Holy Spirit Police Station
01:34who responded to the incident.
01:36When they arrived at Elliptical Road, the jeep stopped.
01:39The suspect seemed to be in a hurry while he was holding his child.
01:43The mother of the child was trying to stop the jeep but the jeep was stopped several times.
01:49A few minutes later, the suspect was cornered
01:53when he got off at the corner of Elliptical Road and Quezon Avenue.
01:56This is where he was rescued from his child.
02:03The suspect, who was chased by the people of the town, was immediately arrested by the police.
02:07He was taken to the ambulance by a young woman who had a scratch on her chest.
02:12The mother of the child was shocked when she entered the house of the suspect with her husband.
02:22The mother of the child was shocked when she entered the house of the suspect with her husband.
02:41The suspect was chased by my husband.
02:45He was pushed out of our room.
02:53He was taken to Los Baños, Laguna.
02:57He wanted to start a new life.
03:00According to the people of the town, the suspect tried to transfer to another vehicle.
03:04He got in a van and jumped.
03:09We were able to catch him because there was a single-motor vehicle.
03:15He got in the van and jumped.
03:18He was afraid of a single-motor vehicle.
03:20The vehicle collapsed.
03:22The 41-year-old suspect was injured.
03:24His father found out about it.
03:27Even though he was already in the police car,
03:29the suspect still refused to let him go.
03:31He even broke the window of the vehicle.
03:33A knife and a knife used in the crime were recovered from the suspect.
03:38The suspect is now in the custody of the Holy Spirit Police Station.
03:42He will face several complaints,
03:45including three counts of attempted murder,
03:47grave threat,
03:48malicious mischief,
03:49and alarm and scandal.
03:51For GEMA Integrated News,
03:53James Agustin, Tutok, 24 Hours.
03:57More than 170 Filipinos returned to the Philippines.
04:01They were forced to work in Thailand.
04:04But they were made scammers and tortured in Myanmar.
04:08J.P. Soriano reports.
04:14From the Philippines,
04:15some Philippine officials chartered a flight to Thailand
04:19to follow the Filipinos rescued from the scum hubs in Myanmar.
04:24The DFI and OWA are here to follow the more than 170 Filipinos
04:30who were victims of human trafficking.
04:32They are the biggest batch that will be sent home this year.
04:39Because they were forced to go to Myanmar,
04:41their last stop in Thailand is still in Passport,
04:44and the record shows that they are now overstaying.
04:47But they were allowed to leave immediately
04:49by boarding a chartered flight.
04:54Among them is Rose.
04:55Her name is not her real name.
04:57She told me that she was recruited by her husband
05:00through a messaging app
05:02to become a call center agent in Thailand.
05:05She was first flown to Hong Kong,
05:07before being flown to Bangkok, Thailand,
05:10and boarded a boat to Myanmar.
05:12My husband and I were tortured in a room.
05:16There was no food intake for almost a week.
05:19They are still being tortured,
05:22even though they know that Rose is pregnant.
05:25I was shot.
05:27Even though my husband and I are begging,
05:29they are not smiling.
05:31They are still hurting us.
05:33Rose was also with her husband when he recruited her.
05:37Her name is also not her real name.
05:39But when they traveled to Myanmar,
05:41they were separated.
05:43I was surprised when they separated us.
05:46I was shocked.
05:48They also met each other for the first time
05:51after being sold by their Chinese employer in Myanmar several times.
05:56For no reason,
05:57Rod's Chinese boss burned his passport.
06:01I feel sorry for the Chinese boss.
06:04I don't know what happened to me.
06:06I was sold again.
06:09I was sold to another country.
06:12It was a different country.
06:13The only reason they are going home now
06:17is because the scam factories are closing.
06:21Because the Thailanders shut off the electricity and the internet.
06:26This is a trilateral comparison with Thailand, Myanmar and China.
06:32Some Filipinos are in the scam hubs in Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos.
06:38But it's too late.
06:39They were all sent to Thailand.
06:42Although we can go to Thailand without a visa,
06:45it doesn't mean we can work in Thailand.
06:46So if they promise you jobs in Thailand,
06:48where will you go?
06:49We understand that we really need a job,
06:52but not in this way.
06:57When they returned to the Philippines,
07:00they were asked to swear an oath to sue their recruiter.
07:05They will also receive help from the government.
07:09For GMA Integrated News,
07:12JP Soriano,
07:1324 Hours.
07:16This is Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
07:26Exclusively discussed by GMA Integrated News,
07:29the spokesperson of the International Criminal Court or ICC,
07:33he discussed the concept of interim release
07:37or temporary release requested by former President Rodrigo Duterte.
07:42Marisse Umali live from The Hague, The Netherlands.
07:46Marisse.
07:51Vicky, it is the right of an accused here in the International Criminal Court
07:54to receive an interim release or temporary release.
07:57But there are conditions that must be fulfilled before it can be given
08:01and it also depends on the evidence and judgment if it can be given.
08:06The priority now of the field of former President Rodrigo Duterte
08:10is to receive an interim release or temporary release
08:14from the International Criminal Court.
08:16In the exclusive interview of GMA Integrated News,
08:19the ICC spokesperson, Dr. Fadi L. Abdala, said
08:23that the mechanism of the interim release
08:25is to respect the principle of presumption of innocence.
08:28But if a suspect is arrested,
08:31there are things that the defense needs to show.
09:02Or because they believe that maybe without arresting this individual,
09:06they may be creating obstacles or threats to the proceedings,
09:10to the investigation or to the witnesses.
09:12So, they have to justify that.
09:15In the ICC process, if a suspect is to be faced,
09:19summons or warrant of arrest can be issued.
09:22When summons are issued,
09:24the judges believe where the suspect will be faced.
09:28When a warrant of arrest is issued,
09:30the court has an excuse.
09:32An interim release can be requested
09:35if there is a possibility to put in place measures and conditions
09:40to ensure that if a person is released,
09:43none of that would happen
09:44and that this person will be brought again before the court
09:48if the judges order so.
09:50And that means that there is a different set of conditions
09:54that needs to be checked.
09:56These conditions are what the court will look at next.
10:00In the past cases,
10:01the movement of the accused was limited.
10:03It is prohibited to inform the investigation.
10:06Witnesses are not allowed to speak
10:08and he cannot make public statements.
10:14In the case of Duterte,
10:15his family wants him to return to the Philippines.
10:18Dr. Al-Abdallah said,
10:20it is important if the country agrees to this
10:23where the suspect will be released,
10:25that it will help and follow the conditions
10:28related to the interim release.
10:30Does this country accept this release?
10:32If the court is ordering certain conditions
10:35and measures to be put in place
10:37to ensure that he will not be in contact with this or that,
10:40that he will not be threatening the investigation,
10:42that he will be brought again before the court
10:44when the judges order,
10:46does the country accept these conditions and measures or not?
10:51And so on.
10:52So, as a matter of general principle,
10:55all these conditions and questions need to be discussed
11:00before the judges
11:01and then the judges will decide whether or not to grant
11:04an interim release with or without conditions as I mentioned.
11:11It is in the hands of the ICC judges
11:13where the country will give custody of the suspect.
11:16Now, as a matter of principle,
11:18the ICC can enter into general agreements
11:22for interim release or for other purposes with different states
11:26but can also enter into ad-hoc agreements
11:29with certain states for specific cases.
11:32One of the issues of Duterte's field
11:34is the way in which he was arrested.
11:37The ICC clearly stated that no matter how Duterte was arrested,
11:41he is now under the jurisdiction of the ICC.
11:44And the crimes that happened and are being complained about
11:48were committed by a part of the Philippines under the Rome Statute.
11:51So, crimes allegedly committed during this period in Philippines
11:55were under the ICC jurisdiction
11:57and remain under the ICC jurisdiction.
12:04Vicky, there were instances where an interim release was granted
12:08but it does not mean that it will automatically be granted.
12:13It still depends on the evidence that will be presented to the court.
12:16Dr. Abdala also clarified that it will not affect the decision of the judges
12:22the steps that will be taken by the supporters of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
12:27The judges will only be able to make a decision
12:30depending on what will be presented to the court.
12:32And that is the latest news from The Hague, Netherlands.
12:36Back to you, Vicky.
12:37Thank you very much, Maris Umali.
12:41GMA Integrated News is still trying to get the reaction of Palacio
12:45and according to the ICC, it is important
12:48if the country will allow the release of a suspect
12:52who can help and follow the conditions related to the interim release.
12:59In other news, the official of Tag-Init, this is the end of the cold season.
13:02The question is, how severe is the heat and cold
13:06in the coming months?
13:07Mark Salazar was in touch.
13:09Salazar.
13:13In extreme heat, the fire was extinguished by 14 meters of electricity in Makato, Aklan.
13:19Although no one was hurt there and it was quickly extinguished.
13:24The heat index or the heat in some places in the country
13:27has been reaching the danger level for several days.
13:30In Pangasinan, a city and 15 towns suspended face-to-face classes today
13:37because of the extreme heat.
13:40According to Pag-Asa, the heat that is felt in many places
13:43is coming from the Pacific.
13:45Because there is no wind in Amihan,
13:47for this reason, the official admission of Tag-Init was also judged.
13:52As of now, our North-East Monsoon or Amihan is completely losing or weakening.
13:57So, the so-called reads of high-pressure area have been established.
14:01It is possible that we will have high temperatures
14:04and our feelings will be unstable.
14:08It is already hot, but it is expected that in the last part of April until the first half of May,
14:13the hot 48 to 50 degrees Celsius will still be felt.
14:20It is not like the heat of an oven or the feeling of convulsions.
14:24This is when you are not sweating but you cannot breathe and your head hurts
14:30until suddenly you lose consciousness.
14:32It just means that it will be difficult for us to release our sweat.
14:40And of course, we will have what is called heat exhaustion or heat stress or heat cramps.
14:46Those are the possible.
14:48Our discomfort level is really high.
14:52Our head will really hurt and we will feel dizzy.
14:56But Don Di Guerrero is still being careful.
14:59He is always having a hard time with the heat as a messenger.
15:02He is always riding a motorcycle and is already old and has high blood pressure.
15:06I had a mild stroke in 2019.
15:08So, you should be careful.
15:11No, we need supplements.
15:14We are not saving money.
15:16If there is a little extra, we need this.
15:20The students are also affected,
15:22The students are also affected, especially those who are in a public school.
15:26Sometimes, my head hurts.
15:28It is very hot.
15:29Sometimes, we just wear a uniform.
15:31We just wear a white T-shirt.
15:32Other students would rather have rain than too much heat.
15:37The electric fan is not complete because the other one is broken.
15:41It is not fixed yet.
15:43In the room, it is hot.
15:46And when you enter, it is also hot.
15:49Especially when we go home, when we ride a jeep.
15:53It is very hot.
15:55The good news is that it is not expected that this will reach the heat of last year
16:01if there is an El Niño.
16:03For the GMA Integrated News, Mark Salazar.
16:07Tune in for 24 hours.
16:11China's ships, the Philippine ships,
16:15have received aid near the Panatag Shoal.
16:19China has also deployed inflatable boats
16:22to bring the Philippine fishermen near the Panatag Shoal.
16:26Jun Veneracion is in charge of this.
16:32While sailing in the direction of the Panatag Shoal,
16:34the ships of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, or BFAR,
16:38on Monday morning,
16:41suddenly saw a ship being attacked by China.
16:44They also have a warship that is not in the video,
16:46and it did not last long.
16:48One by one, the seven ships of the China Coast Guard were released.
16:52Philippine 3009, this is China Coast Guard.
16:55Fast release rate.
16:56Enter the coast and leave immediately.
16:59We will take strong action on you in accordance with the law.
17:03China Coast Guard 5303, this is PRP Dato Balint Sosa.
17:08MMOV 3009, you must take care of our route. Over.
17:14The four ships of the BFAR and two from the Philippine Coast Guard
17:17were attacked by more and bigger ships of China.
17:21Roger, monitor, monitor.
17:2628 nautical miles away from the Panatag Shoal.
17:30Just in time,
17:31because this is where they will meet the Philippine fishermen
17:35who they will give aid.
17:36Even if we are afraid, what can we do?
17:38Of course, we will live here in our family.
17:42While giving crudo and other aid,
17:45the silence was broken by the loud sound of the siren from CCG Vessel 5303.
17:56Aside from the bigger ships of the China Coast Guard,
17:59they also deployed inflatable boats
18:02to get closer to the Philippine fishermen
18:07and to escort them away from the Panatag Shoal.
18:12The tension of the Philippine fishermen
18:15was even higher when they were getting closer to the inflatable boats.
18:21The Philippine fishermen were chased away
18:23even if the Panatag Shoal is only 120 nautical miles away from the mainland Luzon,
18:28entering the 200 nautical miles Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines.
18:33While China is more than 400 nautical miles away.
18:38This is how it is always, sir.
18:40It's really painful, sir.
18:41That's why this happens to us.
18:43The complaint of the Philippine fishermen
18:45is that they have been chasing them for a long time
18:47and the China Coast Guard is not getting them closer to the Panatag Shoal,
18:51which is known as a rich fishing spot.
18:53It's painful for us because, of course, we are not allowed to fish here.
18:58This is our place.
19:00This is our place.
19:01We should be the ones escorting them away.
19:05After the resupply mission,
19:07BFAR tried to conduct a maritime patrol
19:10to get closer to the Panatag Shoal.
19:12That's why even if they were chased away,
19:14the Chinese Coast Guard continued to escort the ships of BFAR.
19:21It's now 7 in the morning, March 25,
19:23and the China Coast Guard Vessel 5303 has not yet stopped
19:29from getting close to the BRP Dato Balensusa that we are driving.
19:35Despite the harassment of China,
19:37the Philippine fishermen were protected
19:40because of the deployment of the Philippine Coast Guard and BFAR Vessels.
19:44They received a fuel subsidy.
19:47So, I think this is a successful mission.
19:51Because the Chinese Coast Guard was not able to get closer to the Panatag Shoal,
19:58but they will still come back
20:00to show that the Philippines is not giving up on the Panatag Shoal in China.
