00:00The Department of Justice promised to answer the law on those who were involved in the escape of Dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Guo.
00:07According to the Bureau of Immigration, it is possible that it was illegal for Guo to leave the Philippines.
00:13Luisa Eriz Pesa reports.
00:17Now that the former Bamban Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo has been confirmed to have left the country,
00:22the Department of Justice is not happy with what is happening.
00:25That is why they are questioning who is behind Guo's escape from the Philippines.
00:32Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Boyeng C. Remulia assured that all those who were involved in the illegal escape of the former Bamban Mayor Alice Guo will be held accountable.
00:44According to him, Secretary Remulia ordered a thorough investigation into Guo's escape from the country.
00:53Even though Guo's lawyers themselves will not let the DOJ pass and they will also be investigated.
01:00The DOJ is also investigating Guo's lawyers' responsibility if they can prove that they were involved in the escape of the former mayor.
01:09Aside from this, Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulia also said that they do not rule out the possibility that Guo may have connections in the Bureau of Immigration,
01:19that is why he left the country.
01:21That is why Remulia ordered B.I. Commissioner Norman Tansinco to investigate if the former mayor had connections with the B.I.
01:30That is why he left the country.
01:32Remulia also warned that anyone who is involved in the illegal escape of Guo should be arrested before he can reveal who he is because he will surely be held accountable.
01:42This is also the opinion of the Philippine National Police.
01:46Considering that the case is very high-profile and almost everyone knows and monitors what happened to Mayor Guo,
01:55I think with due respect to our immigration officers, it would be prudent on their part to report if there is indeed a sighting or at least an attempt to leave the country.
02:08Although he does not have a hold departure order, but the mere fact that he was placed in the Immigration Lookout Bulletin,
02:15it will suffice to at least monitor his attempt to leave the country.
02:20But according to the B.I., it is possible that Guo escaped from the eyes of the immigration officers and it is also possible that he used a pecking stamp.
02:29We are seeing individuals who are being arrested in Paliparan.
02:33There are pecking stamps that are made to be used, for example, when they are done with their clearance.
02:40It seems that Mayor Alice Guo abused the areas where there is no immigration presence.
02:48The possible areas that we can see that he used are the private airstrips.
02:57The B.I. explained that despite the Immigration Lookout Bulletin against Guo, his trip did not go out of their centralized database.
03:04That's why they think that aside from the private airstrip, he also crossed the sea to leave the Philippines.
03:11In the last information of the B.I., from Malaysia, his camp in Lagujo traveled to Indonesia.
03:18The information we are seeing is that he arrived in Indonesia.
03:22That's the most recent. Just the other day, August 18, he traveled from Singapore to Indonesia.
03:29The Office of the Solicitor General confirmed that the departure of Guo had no effect on the cases they investigated.
03:36The Commission on Elections also confirmed that their preliminary investigation into Guo's misrepresentation case is still ongoing.
03:43But Senator Riza Hontiveros has a new call for now.
03:48It seems like he is too open and active.
03:51That's why my last call was to the Department of Foreign Affairs.
03:55Their passport was already cancelled.
03:57Especially since we have already proven to the NBI and our investigation that he is not a Filipino citizen.
04:05So he has no right to hold a Philippine passport and use it to avoid the effect of the warrant of arrest of the Senate.
