00:06the police were ordered to look for Pastor Apollo Quibuloy.

00:23Ivan, before the dispersal of the rally in the KOJC compound in Davao City,
00:32the demolition of the barricade became difficult.
00:3518 members of the KOJC were arrested by the police
00:40for throwing stones and fighting the police.
00:45A few minutes after the riot,
00:48the police ordered the dispersal of the members of the KOJC barricade in front of their compound
00:56at 3 p.m. yesterday.
00:58Their bodies were gradually called using the riot shield.
01:02Some were dragged, kicked, and pushed by the members.
01:07Some of them were hit by chairs and bottles.
01:10Others were beaten by the police.
01:12The police also placed their own barricade in the area
01:16and removed the members of the National Highway.
01:19The lawyer of the KOJC, Attorney Israelito Torrion,
01:24said that their gathering was legal
01:26because it was done in the State of Mississippi under the Civil Code.
01:30Their human rights were not respected by the KOJC compound
01:36that did not comply with the police's warrant of arrest,
01:39but the Davao Regional Police did.
01:42It was legal in the belief that Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy and other accused were in the compound.
01:4718 members of the KOJC were arrested by the police
01:51for fighting the police.
01:53They will be charged with obstruction of justice.
01:56We are trying to get their statement.
01:58Meanwhile, it was difficult for passengers to go to the departure area
02:03or from the arrival area of Davao International Airport yesterday morning.
02:07It was just next to the compound of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
02:10It was a hassle because it was my first time to return to Davao.
02:14I was not able to get a ride. I had to hide.
02:19Where are we going now?
02:21It's all closed.
02:23We are only looking for one person.
02:25Why are we all affected?
02:28Sabrina is a tourist at PWD.
02:30She had to walk to the airport from her accommodation.
02:34We will not return because it's scary.
02:36Even the commuters going to work are affected.
02:39It's a hassle because there is no one to work.
02:42We don't have a car.
02:43According to the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines or CAAP Davao,
02:47for now, they can only enter and exit the airport using the main entrance.
02:51What used to be our exit gate,
02:54it is now closed as a precautionary measure
03:00because that gate is very near.
03:03It's very near to where the operation will take place.
03:07There were no cancelled flights but there were delays.
03:09For the passengers and for the passengers, it was an isolated case.
03:14The City Transport and Traffic Management Office issued an alternate route for the motorists.
03:23Ivan, at this time, the tension has dropped but it is still barricaded.
03:28The police are still on high alert outside the KOJC compound.
03:34Earlier, prayer worship was held for the members of KOJC.
03:39Meanwhile, the main exit gate of Davao International Airport has been opened for passengers.
03:45Ivan?
03:46Thank you very much.
