00:00A Senate committee led by Senator Issa Ontiveros sites dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Guo in
00:05contempt again.
00:06I move to cite Guo Huaping, also known as Alice Guo, in contempt of the Senate for testifying
00:13falsely and evasively before this committee.
00:17After repeatedly snubbing Senate hearings, the Senate ordered her arrest.
00:21This is the first time Guo attends a hearing since May 22.
00:25She was deported from Indonesia on Friday, September 6, after she illegally left the
00:29Philippines in July.
00:31Despite her fingerprints matching those of Chinese Guo Huaping, she maintains she is
00:35Filipino.
00:36I know that I am Alice Guo, and I'm sorry if you don't believe me.
00:44Despite being cited in contempt, Ontiveros clarifies Guo will remain under PNP custody.
00:50If she posts bail, she will be detained in the Senate.
