00:28 and the burning has been going on for an hour.

00:32 It's even harder to extinguish the fire

00:39 that burst into a residential area in Pasay City.

00:42 30 families are affected.

00:45 With live, Jaime Santos.

00:48 The residents of the fire-extinguisher

00:55 are being forced to flee the fire

00:58 that burst into Dandan Street, Barangay 54, Tramo, Pasay.

01:01 This fire truck is pouring water manually

01:07 to the residents.

01:09 They are being forced to fill their water supply.

01:12 The road is narrow in the area

01:14 so not all fire trucks can enter the area.

01:18 This young man has already brought a bucket of water

01:21 from their homes

01:23 to add to the water supply of the firefighters.

01:26 This is hard, that's why I helped

01:29 to fill the buckets.

01:31 If we don't help,

01:33 the other houses will be affected.

01:35 The fire will spread.

01:37 At 6.24 p.m.,

01:39 the BFP raised the first alarm.

01:42 Because it's a residential area,

01:44 the fire was raised immediately

01:46 on the second alarm at 6.37 p.m.

01:48 This means that there are 11 BFP fire trucks

01:51 and 56 fire volunteer trucks

01:53 who responded to the fire.

01:55 At 7.34 p.m.,

01:57 the fire was declared under control

01:59 and started inside the adjacent houses.

02:02 The firemen remained in the covered court of Barangay Pan.

02:07 Someone was left inside the house.

02:09 We don't know if it's an electric pan

02:11 and there's no one inside.

02:13 We don't know where the smoke came from.

02:16 When we went to the house,

02:18 because there was smoke, it was locked.

02:20 When we tried to open the house,

02:22 we saw the fire inside.

02:24 It spread quickly.

02:26 According to the BFP,

02:28 it's estimated that 30 families

02:30 were affected by the fire.

02:32 The BFP's investigation

02:36 on the origin of the fire continues.

02:39 Live from Pasay,

02:41 for JMAI Integrated News,

02:43 Jaime Santos is your witness.

02:47 A woman was killed in a street sweeper's shooting in Taguig.

02:50 She was stabbed by the police.

02:52 She was hit by a police vehicle.

02:54 Oscar Oida is the witness.

02:56 It's shocking.

02:59 There are bullets in her body

03:01 and she's dead

03:03 when she was found in Barangay Rizal, Taguig City.

03:07 The fire was continuous.

03:09 Maybe 6 to 8 times.

03:12 I thought that someone just touched our skin.

03:16 Someone passed by.

03:18 When we went out, there were a lot of people.

03:21 What did you see?

03:23 The woman was lying down.

03:25 She was dead.

03:27 I don't know her.

03:29 Journalist Mendoza was identified as the victim.

03:31 She was 39 years old

03:33 and a street sweeper in the area.

03:35 According to some officials of the barangay,

03:38 they talked for a few minutes

03:40 before the shooting.

03:42 We just passed by them.

03:44 We were cleaning.

03:45 We thanked him.

03:46 Thank God the road is clean.

03:48 Based on the initial report by the police,

03:50 the victim left the area

03:52 when two armed men

03:54 stopped and fired

03:56 at the motorcycle.

03:59 According to the police,

04:01 the victim was previously addicted to drugs.

04:04 The victim was previously imprisoned.

04:07 She was also imprisoned.

04:09 She was also imprisoned.

04:11 She was also charged with 9165.

04:12 Recently,

04:14 the police conducted an anti-drug operation

04:16 in the area.

04:18 The victim was possibly

04:20 under the influence of a police asset.

04:22 She seems to be the suspect.

04:24 She was drinking.

04:26 She used to be a drug personality.

04:30 The mother of the victim,

04:32 Jonna Liza, was not able to accept

04:34 the child's arrest.

04:36 Although she used

04:38 the prohibited drugs,

04:40 she was still not allowed

04:42 to leave the prison in 2020.

04:44 If you have a job,

04:46 I hope you can grow up and become a good person.

04:48 We are having a hard time.

04:50 Her father is sick.

04:52 The police is confident

04:54 that they can track down the criminals.

04:57 We have a person of interest

05:00 who is being chased.

05:02 We have witnesses.

05:04 We have people who can talk to us.

05:06 For the GWA Integrated News,

05:08 I'm your host, Oscar Oidang.

05:10 Saksi!

05:12 The online casino scam

05:14 was exposed in Cavite and Paranaque.

05:16 Two people who are doing dental procedures

05:18 were arrested.

05:20 Even though they don't have a license.

05:22 Saksi,

05:24 we have a consultant.

05:26 Emil, come here.

05:28 In this video,

05:30 we can see a patient being treated

05:32 by a forensic surgeon.

05:34 But we can see that there is no dental chair.

05:36 And the patient

05:38 is just sitting normally.

05:40 When the camera turns,

05:42 it's obvious that the dental procedure

05:44 is being done in the kitchen of a house.

05:46 The blood you cook

05:48 and wash the dishes

05:50 and mix it

05:52 with the patient's mouth

05:54 is not sterile.

05:56 Aside from the lack of light,

06:02 we can't see what the patient

06:04 is eating or drinking.

06:06 The forensic surgeon

06:08 is using this method.

06:10 It's easy to infect a patient

06:12 according to Dr. Ragos.

06:14 They don't cook

06:16 or cure the patient.

06:18 So, after a few days,

06:20 the patient will smell bad.

06:22 So, after a few days,

06:24 the teeth next to the patient

06:26 will start to rot

06:28 because the gums are weak.

06:30 A dental technician was arrested

06:32 when the dental procedure

06:34 was started on an undercover agent

06:36 of three NBI officers.

06:38 When the agent paid to recover the patient,

06:46 the woman was arrested.

06:48 Even in the clinic of the set-up,

06:50 the Philippine Dental Association

06:52 complained to the NBI that the dentist

06:54 is not licensed.

06:56 He should not be in the hospital.

06:58 The dentist, even if he is licensed,

07:00 is the one who studies and attends

07:02 the seminar to increase his knowledge.

07:04 So, they are right.

07:06 Of course, if he is underboard,

07:08 he cannot attend the seminar.

07:10 The defense gave a statement

07:12 that the PDA called on those

07:14 who do not have or do not have enough budget

07:16 to make teeth, to call for the repair

07:18 to those clinics that are not licensed.

07:20 They can go to

07:22 public health and government

07:24 health centers

07:26 to avail free

07:28 treatment for their dental needs.

07:30 In the roof of a house in Bacoor, Cavite,

07:36 the operatives noticed

07:38 the target that they thought

07:40 was already escaped.

07:42 Hey, stay there.

07:50 Stay there.

07:52 Stay there.

07:56 Stay there.

07:58 Stay there.

08:00 That was just one of the four locations

08:02 where the NCRPO and PAG-COR

08:04 entered at the same time in Cavite

08:06 and Paranaque.

08:08 In the second floor of a target in Paranaque,

08:10 someone tried to lock the room

08:12 but the police stopped him.

08:14 There, the computer

08:16 caught the number of people

08:18 behind an online casino scam hub.

08:20 This is the workstation

08:24 of one of the groups raided

08:26 by the NCRPO here in Paranaque.

08:28 We can see here the computers

08:30 that are still on,

08:32 which are used as a marketing arm

08:34 of the syndicate.

08:36 And just like this,

08:38 they are boosting these ads

08:40 to encourage our countrymen

08:42 to join their online casino

08:44 which is directly played

08:46 on cellphones like this.

08:48 The primary target is Encal Tordova,

08:50 who was caught

08:52 in a hidden place in Bubong, Bacuur.

08:54 He was previously imprisoned

08:56 for an investment scam, according to the NCRPO.

08:58 Now, he is released.

09:00 He entered an online casino

09:02 and was found guilty of scamming

09:04 more than 30 online players.

09:06 They were employees

09:08 of Pogo

09:10 before, Pogo operators.

09:12 These Filipinos

09:14 went there and took care of it.

09:16 And then, they already have

09:18 online casino hubs.

09:20 These are the houses

09:22 that in 2022,

09:24 their highest earning

09:26 is something like 200 million.

09:28 They lost it.

09:30 They already fooled

09:32 their clients

09:34 or those who went online to them

09:36 because they don't return the money.

09:38 They put 200 million in the casinos

09:40 until they lost it.

09:42 According to Pago, the group has no permit.

09:44 The NCRPO caught him.

09:46 He was the group's leader

09:48 and he opened their online casino

09:50 and online games.

09:52 It's really painful.

09:54 I received cash out.

09:56 I receive maximum 100,000 daily.

09:58 We didn't know

10:00 that the system is like that.

10:02 That you really need a license.

10:04 This is not

10:06 sanctioned by

10:08 the Pag Corp, meaning illegal.

10:10 No permit, no tax.

10:12 Filipinos

10:14 are gaming here.

10:16 The cases committed over the cyber space

10:18 are increasing.

10:20 So, it is

10:22 just timely with the

10:24 chief PNP and our chief

10:26 executive BBBM

10:28 who said that

10:30 we should strengthen

10:32 our

10:34 capability on cyber

10:36 investigation because of these

10:38 rising cases committed over

10:40 the cyber space.

10:42 You are competing with computers and gadgets

10:44 and cars without papers

10:46 that were used by 12 people

10:48 who were arrested. They are looking for

10:50 complaints of illegal gambling and

10:52 violation of the Cyber Crime Prevention Act.

10:54 For GMA Integrated News,

10:56 I am John Consulta.

10:58 And I am Evil

11:00 Sumangin. We are your witnesses.

11:02 The Comalec withdrew from the withdrawal form

11:06 for those who want to get their rights back

11:08 on the petition for the People's

11:10 Initiative. The Charter

11:12 Change is now being held for the

11:14activists in Oblation Run in UP.

11:16 Our witness is Sandra Aguinalto.

11:18 In the first year of Oblation Run,

11:24 the members of Alpha Phi Omega

11:26 ETA Chapter in the University of the

11:28 Philippines, Diliman,

11:30 announced the action of the activists

11:32 in the amendment of the Constitution.

11:34 The fratmen who are protesting

11:38 are carrying flags and are waving

11:40 here.

11:42 The protestors are also moving

11:46 in May 1 in the People Power Monument.

11:48 They call it the right pay

11:50 for the workers and not

11:52 chacha. The talk of chacha

11:54 is still hot, especially

11:56 the people's initiative for

11:58 modernization and reform

12:00 action. Their search

12:02 for a signature

12:04 that exceeded 8 million

12:06 needs.

12:08 "We have almost 9 million

12:10 signatures.

12:12 We will reach

12:14 more or less

12:16 20 million signatures

12:18 so that they can see

12:20 that the people

12:22 are really supporting

12:24 our signature and

12:26 our people's initiative."

12:28 But Komelec said,

12:30 "If you are with the signature, the amendment

12:32 of the Constitution, but you want

12:34 to get your signature back,

12:36 just fill up the signature

12:38 withdrawal form that you can get

12:40 from the Komelec offices in your area.

12:42 There are just a few details

12:44 that Komelec is asking for, like the name,

12:46 address, precinct number,

12:48 barangay, and more. It is a request

12:50 from the people to have a process

12:52 for the return of the signature."

12:54 According to Komelec, the

12:56 resolution 10650

12:58 is still suspended,

13:00 or the rules that guide the

13:02 implementation of the people's initiative.

13:04 That's why it is not being discussed

13:06 for now.

13:08 "We are just recording this.

13:10 Why do you think we are recording

13:12 and there is no action yet?

13:14 Because the Republic Act 6735

13:16 and the implementing

13:18 rules of the resolution 10650

13:20 are being reviewed."

13:22 But Senator Ayme Marcos

13:24 is asking why the Komelec

13:26 is asking for a reason for the return of the signature.

13:28 If the people are still asking for an explanation,

13:30 it will be difficult

13:32 for the people to get their signature back.

13:34 "Welcome," said the Komelec.

13:36 Said Senator Joel Villanueva.

13:38 But hopefully,

13:40 the people who want to get their signature back

13:42 won't have a hard time.

13:44 Komelec immediately clarified that

13:46 it is not required for the people

13:48 to give a reason for the return of their signature

13:50 in the people's initiative.

13:52 "Even if it is in the form,

13:54 they will not be forced to give a reason.

13:56 What is important here is that

13:58 it is their action,

14:00 and the process of the Komelec

14:02 will give a reason for the return of their signature."

14:04 Although the group of signatures admitted

14:06 that they have not yet obtained

14:08 the required amount

14:10 from all legislative districts,

14:12 they are adamant that they will not be affected

14:14 by the withdrawal form issued by the Komelec.

14:16 "We are not

14:18 affected by that

14:20 because

14:22 as of the other day,

14:24 we already gathered

14:26 19% of

14:28 the total signatures nationwide."

14:30 According to a congressman,

14:32 they are insisting on

14:34 keeping their signatures.

14:36 "We are ready for

14:38 legal moves

14:40 in the Supreme Court

14:42 and wherever to request

14:44 to issue these signatures."

14:46 In the new Komelec's campaign,

14:48 Albi Representative

14:50 Joey Salceda hopes

14:52 that the discussion on

14:54 the signature of Chacha will be focused on the merits.

14:56 For GMA Integrated News,

14:58 Sandra Aguinaldo is your witness.
