00:00We are all in this together, together we can do it!
00:14Dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Guo is facing the Senate hearing on Monday.
00:19According to the court's order, following the request of the chairperson of the committee,
00:23Guo was allowed to attend the hearing.
00:26Before that, Guo once again mentioned the humanoid death threats against him,
00:31something that an official of the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission, or PAOC, is concerned about.
00:37Witness, Joseph Moro.
00:43Alice, Alice, Alice.
00:46What happened?
00:47Nothing happened.
00:49You just follow us, okay?
00:51Okay, let me change.
00:52Three days after he was arrested in Tangier, Indonesia,
00:55Dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Guo returned to the Philippines,
00:59who is facing a series of complaints due to his alleged involvement in the Bamban-Tarlac pogos.
01:04The court issued an arrest warrant for him in Tarlac for a case of graft and corruption.
01:09You have the right to remain silent.
01:11Everything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law.
01:14Guo is undergoing a documentation and booking procedure, as well as a medical examination.
01:19Guo boarded a chartered plane to return to the Philippines.
01:22According to the DILG, the Indonesian authorities only gave him 24 hours to follow up on Guo's disappearance.
01:30I have a friend who borrowed an airplane to do this in an easier way,
01:35because we will catch up with the rumors.
01:38I repeat, I did not spend any money on the government here.
01:43According to the BI, a woman named Mongha is the owner of the apartment that Guo followed.
01:48Guo was only recognized in a mall that he visited.
01:52The authorities also allowed four people to help Alice to hide in Indonesia,
01:58the Chinese and the Indonesians.
02:00It was a big help for us when we identified the local contacts here,
02:05and there were Chinese people with them.
02:07They are the ones who provide the logistics here, as well as the hotels.
02:12The locals who are their contacts are the ones who use their names in the hotels that they follow.
02:18In Indonesia yesterday, Guo was smiling and ready to take a selfie.
02:22When he faced the press con earlier this morning,
02:25together with the leaders of DILG and PNP,
02:27Guo was wearing a face mask and an orange T-shirt with the words CIDG detainee.
02:33The hands of the former mayor were covered with a cloth.
02:37He was standing at the back of the press con,
02:41I confirm everything that the secretary said.
02:44I have a death threat.
02:46I asked for help from them and I'm happy that I saw them.
02:51I feel safe. Thank you very much.
02:53Mayor Alice, is that why you're happy with the pictures and the selfies?
03:01You're always smiling as if you're less stressed in your situation?
03:06Yes.
03:09Alice requested that the two of us talk to the chief.
03:13She said that she has death threats.
03:16I assured her and the chief that she doesn't need to worry about the death threats.
03:23What's important is that she tells the truth.
03:26She doesn't need to be afraid of anything.
03:28Who knows what kind of person this is.
03:31Guo was transferred to the PNP Custodial Center in Camp Krame,
03:35where he was reintroduced to the booking procedure.
03:38The next day, he was wearing a bulletproof vest,
03:40he was wearing a mask,
03:41and the police escorted Guo to Branch 109 of the Tarlac Regional Trial Court
03:47where a warrant was issued against him.
03:49The warrant of arrest issued by the RTC takes precedence over the arrest warrant issued by the Senate.
03:57If there will be a hearing, the Senate and the PNP are still in custody.
04:03In this case, the Senate will request the same court that issued the warrant of arrest.
04:08The court recommended P180,000 pesos, but Guo's camp did not pay.
04:14The court ordered that Guo should be jailed in Krame while his case is being heard.
04:19That's why he was transferred to the PNP Custodial Center.
04:22We see no reason for that,
04:24considering that even if he filed a bill,
04:26he will still not be able to get the purpose,
04:30considering that he still has another warrant of arrest.
04:33If you file a bill, you will be jailed.
04:35You will be jailed in the Senate, right?
04:38His lawyer pointed out the death threats against him.
04:42That's why Guo is more compliant in the PNP Custodial Center.
04:45Guo's bandage was brought to him by his family and friends,
04:49who will silence him so that there will be no more investigation on him.
04:53That's why Guo was so happy in the pictures and videos
04:57when he was turned over by the Indonesian government.
05:00At least now, he's happy.
05:01Do they not want him to be happy?
05:03Do they want him to be sad?
05:05Because before, he had a lot of worries about his security, right?
05:08Now, what are his worries?
05:10He's protected by the best security agency in the Philippines.
05:13But the Senate Committee's chairperson insisted that he should be contempted by Guo.
05:17That's why the Senate issued an arrest order against him.
05:20He should be detained in the Senate first so that he can face the hearing on Monday.
05:25I respect the judiciary's right to issue a warrant.
05:31But the Senate has the first arrest warrant against him.
05:36The Senate triggered the manhunt.
05:39The Senate warrant is the baton of our law enforcers in Jakarta.
05:44Because the court is now holding the former Bantarlak Mayor, Alice Guo,
05:48the Senate now needs to ask for permission from the court
05:52whenever Guo will need it to attend the hearings.
05:56I really want him to attend the hearings because he has a lot to clarify.
06:02Who asked him to escape?
06:04Who helped him to leave the country?
06:08I'm sure the threat is increasing
06:11because there are people involved there that we don't know.
06:14It's a PNCM case.
06:16It's all up to the court if they will allow him.
06:20Senator Arisa Ontiveros wrote to the court asking for permission to face Guo's hearing on Monday,
06:26which was approved by the court.
06:28The PNP Custodial Center also issued an order to bring Guo to the Senate on the day of the hearing.
06:34Ontiveros also asked if the DILG was brave enough to file a lighter case for them,
06:39so that they can get custody of Guo.
06:41According to Sandigan Bayan,
06:43there should be graft and corruption charges against high-ranking officials like Guo.
06:47According to the DILG, they filed a complaint against Ombudsman
06:51and Ombudsman filed a case against Tarlac RTC.
06:54Officials of the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission, or PAOC,
06:58have doubts about what Guo said about death threats against him.
07:02This woman and her family were brought to life by a lie.
07:07So I will never believe anything that comes out of their mouth again,
07:10unless there is evidence.
07:12I think he will face death threats if he leaves his associates in the syndicate,
07:18his associates in the illegal run of Pogo.
07:21President Marcos doubts what Guo is saying
07:24that he doesn't know what is happening in Baufo Compound,
07:27where Pogo is being raided in Bamban,
07:30especially since it is located near the municipality.
07:32He has a lot of questions.
07:34How did he become rich?
07:36Why does he have a lot of money?
07:38How did he become a mayor?
07:39He doesn't even know the people there.
07:41I hope that Alice Guth's answer is good
07:44as compared to her associates,
07:47because it will not help her at all to be evasive.
07:51The president of a prisoner swap in the government of Indonesia
07:54refused to return Guo to his country.
07:57For GMA Integrity News, Joseph Morong, your witness.
08:03The years of immigration and NBI will be explained
08:06because of their selfies with the dismissed Bamban mayor, Alice Guo.
08:11Interior Secretary Benjar Abalos also has an explanation
08:14about his portrait with Guo that went viral.
08:17Witness, Oscar Oida.
08:20When Alice Guo processed the documents in Indonesia
08:23to be returned to the Philippines yesterday,
08:29she was pursued by several officials in the Philippines and Indonesia
08:32to take a selfie.
08:39The dismissed mayor's smile was all smiles
08:41when he was arrested for being involved with the illegal Pogo in Bamban,
08:45which is behind various crimes such as torture, scamming, and human trafficking.
09:01At one point, he even fainted while being video-bombed.
09:08Guo also received this,
09:11and NBI officials in a van that, according to some netizens,
09:14looked like they were about to go on an outing.
09:19Guo also smiled and posed
09:21with Interior Secretary Benjar Abalos and PNP Chief Romel Marbil in this picture.
09:29The government's selfie with Guo
09:31was called by an unprofessional senator.
09:35The chairperson of the committee in the Senate
09:38who is investigating the illegal Pogo
09:41reminded that Guo is a pugante and not a celebrity.
09:59The Justice Department said
10:01that the Justice Department, which is part of the Bureau of Immigration and the NBI,
10:04said that it is inappropriate or out of place
10:07to arrest people from the two bureaus,
10:10so they will issue a show-cause order or explanation.
10:15The director of the NBI also said
10:17that the officials should not have done that.
10:21Please forgive us.
10:23We should act professionally.
10:25They will be reprimanded,
10:27and a stern warning that they will not repeat it.
10:30But it is hoped that the public will understand
10:33that this is a human reaction
10:35after a few weeks of hardship in Indonesia.
10:39I cannot blame the happiness.
10:41Day and night, you are working.
10:43No one will continue to stay in hotels.
10:46The budget is running out.
10:48The NBI did not immediately arrest Guo.
10:51It is not yet in our jurisdiction.
10:53It is still the jurisdiction of Indonesia.
10:57When he boarded the plane,
10:59he was handcuffed and put on a detainee's uniform.
11:03The Interior Secretary explained
11:05that it was only to follow the documentation
11:07that Guo was taken with him.
11:10He told me that there was a threat to his life.
11:15Chief Marville recorded what he did.
11:18So we looked at the camera.
11:19I don't know what he was doing.
11:21He was being handcuffed.
11:22It's more of...
11:24He was really happy.
11:26It was different.
11:27It was the first time he saw our secretary and me.
11:30They feel so comfortable.
11:32President Bongbong Marcos said...
11:34It's part of the new culture now
11:36that they let anyone take anything.
11:39Because they will post it.
11:40Look, I was with the team that arrested him.
11:44We are the selfie capital of the world, right?
11:46So they took a selfie.
11:48You can't stop people from smiling.
11:52So they just had a selfie.
11:55I don't think there's much more to it than that.
11:58For GMA Integrated News,
12:00Oscar Oida is your witness.
12:05A female nurse in Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental
12:08was killed in a self-propelled gunfire.
12:10According to the investigation,
12:12the suspect was also a nurse
12:14when the crime was committed inside a car.
12:16The couple had a fierce fight
12:19that resulted in physical and gunfire to the victim.
12:23The motive for the crime is jealousy.
12:26The suspect was arrested for being a delivery man.
12:31The next week,
12:32the oil rollback increased
12:34according to motorists.
12:36According to the 4-day average of oil trading,
12:38up to P30,
12:40the possible cost of each liter of diesel and gasoline
12:43is P1.35 per liter of kerosene.
12:47And that will change
12:48depending on the results of the trading this Friday.
12:51According to the Oil Industry Management Bureau of the Energy Department,
12:54the decrease in demand for oil in China and America
12:56has an effect on the expected rollback.
12:58The increase in oil production in Libya
13:01and the plan for Riyadh of OPEC-plus countries
13:04in October is also affected.
