Transcript
00:00We will return here to the PNP Custodial Center and we will talk this morning with PNP Spokesperson Colonel Jean Fajardo.
00:08Ma'am, please join me. Thank you. Good morning.
00:11Good morning sir Ivan.
00:12Colonel Jean just came out of the PNP Custodial Center where he already talked to Alice Goh, Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy, and other detained KOJC members or leaders.
00:28What update can you give us? How are Alice Goh and Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy?
00:34Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy just had his breakfast and was given his ration of food.
00:41His food today is hard-boiled egg, corned beef, rice, and coffee.
00:49This is a ration from the PNP?
00:51It's the same ration. Normally, it's delivered at 6 o'clock. I saw it earlier, although some of them are still sleeping.
00:59But I personally talked to Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy. I asked him about his situation. He said he's okay, although he's adjusting.
01:08He's resting. I also talked to an inmate, one of the three, who is also awake and reading a book.
01:19He's okay, although it's expected that he's adjusting to this new environment.
01:25I also didn't disturb Alice Goh because she's still resting.
01:31She's still sleeping, not having her breakfast.
01:33Ma'am, let's go back to Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy.
01:35The accommodations here at the Custodial Center, do they share a room or are they separated?
01:43They are separated. The male and female are separated. They don't meet each other. They are separated by the cell.
01:50Is the room air-conditioned?
01:52No, sir. This is the typical room that we put inmates in.
01:56Although they are separated, they are the only ones in the cell.
02:00There's a small ceiling fan, a bed, and their cell is open.
02:07Yesterday, Pastor Q. Buloy received a return of warrant. What's next for him?
02:12Why wasn't his personal appearance required?
02:17This is not the first time that the court doesn't require the physical appearance of the inmates.
02:23In the case of Pastor Q. Buloy and others, if you may recall, sir Ivan, the case in Pasig is non-bailable.
02:31So, the judge should not require him physically, but just return the warrant and manifest.
02:39We saw some documents, like the mag shot and the return of the warrant to him.
02:46In the same case in RTC 106 in Quezon City, their physical presence was not required, for security reasons, of course.
02:55You mentioned the mag shot. There are reactions that it seems that we were treated differently in presenting Pastor and Alice Goh.
03:04First of all, the photos released by PNP blurred Pastor and Alice Goh's face.
03:12What is the explanation of PNP here?
03:15Sir, let's be clear. The official mag shot of Alice Goh was also blurred.
03:21It was also blurred. The one released by our office was also blurred.
03:26In the same case, the photos we released before were also blurred.
03:32It is in compliance with the order of human rights that as much as possible, it should not be shown.
03:38So, even the ordinary people that we arrested from the regions and other operating units,
03:44when the mag shot was released, their faces were really hidden.
03:48But in the presentation of Alice Goh, her face was revealed. Pastor's face was exposed.
03:52What happened to Alice Goh when they attacked her was that she was wearing a face mask.
03:59She said that she was okay there. But if you notice, when she was already there, she turned around.
04:06So, we cannot force her to face us. That is her right.
04:10In the case of Pastor Kibuloy and others, when they were informed that they will be presented in the media,
04:18they talked about covering their faces and that we need to give them their rights.
04:23What is important is that they are physically there, although their faces are not visible.
04:28But we want to assure that they are these people.
04:31They will not arrest SILG, CPNP, or other people.
04:36Before they were presented, they personally talked to CPNP and SILG.
04:42Pastor Kibuloy's camp announced that they will ask for transfer of custody or house arrest.
04:49What is the PNP's reaction to this?
04:51Well, I understand. The Department of National Defense also said that they would at least object to the idea
05:01that Pastor Kibuloy and others will be detained there.
05:05On the part of the PNP, we have to understand, Sir Ivan, that the DOJ filed the case here.
05:10So if someone will file a comment or objection, it should be the DOJ because the case has already been filed.
05:16The only role of the PNP here is that the CIDG served the warrant.
05:22So in all the process here, we need the DOJ.
05:27Today, the PNP and DOJ will have a meeting to discuss what will be the next move.
05:33Colonel Jean, thank you very much for your time.
05:36Thank you, Sir. Good morning.
05:38We were able to talk to Colonel Jean Fajardo, the spokesperson of the Philippine National Police.
05:44He just left the PNP Custodial Center.
05:47According to him, he personally talked to Apollo Kibuloy.
05:51He just finished his breakfast.
05:53He ate hard-boiled egg and corned beef, both of which were detained here at the PNP Custodial Center.
06:02That is the latest from Campo Crame. Let's go back to the studio.
