00:00We will all be together in this fight!

00:14The search warrant will ask for permission from the court to search the compound of Lucky South 99 Pogo in Purak, Pampanga.

00:22This is because of the allegations that were buried there, some of the buildings.

00:26The compound of Lucky South 99 Pogo was searched by Cassandra Ong.

00:30She went to the Supreme Court because she was asking too many questions from congressmen.

00:37Joseph Moro is the witness.

00:42More than three months after the raid of Lucky South 99 Pogo in Purak, Pampanga,

00:47where the allegations of human trafficking, scam hub and torture were found,

00:52the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission, or PAOC, will apply for a new search warrant.

00:58Our new witnesses found places where the bodies of some foreign nationals were buried.

01:07We went there last week and they taught us.

01:10PAOC's request for a search warrant is for their part of the compound.

01:14The PAOC is now applying for a search warrant.

01:18Now, it is legal for us to search the locations taught by the witnesses.

01:25According to PAOC, some were rescued by the U.N. in Lucky South 99,

01:29directly under Cassandra Ong's responsibility in the Pogo operation.

01:33She has direct knowledge of what's happening here.

01:36That's why she's one of the principals of the investigation.

01:39Ong filed a money laundering complaint with former Bambantarlak Mayor Alice Guo.

01:45As for qualified human trafficking, her lawyers haven't seen the details of the complaint.

01:51Ong was rushed to the hospital on September 4 due to low blood sugar and blood pressure.

01:56But she was able to return to her bed yesterday, according to the medical bulletin of the House of Representatives.

02:02Ong's lawyers filed a petition for a search warrant in the Supreme Court and requested a temporary restraining order

02:09against three committees of the Senate and four committees of the Camera of Quadcom.

02:13She's shouting, she's being ridiculed, she's being intimidated, she's being threatened.

02:20There are very insulting words that are being said to her.

02:24You are her witnesses.

02:26That's the only thing we want to stop. Once the right to remain silent is invoked,

02:31no further questionings should be made.

02:34According to Ong's lawyers, they don't intend to stop the investigations conducted by the Senate and the Camera

02:41and they will continue to listen if necessary.

02:44According to Congressman Dan Fernandez, who is investigating Ong in the Camera,

02:48Ong will not use his right to remain silent,

02:51even though he can invoke the right against self-incrimination, it depends on the question.

02:56But what will he do if he doesn't know what to ask him?

03:00Senator Arisa Ontiveros said that they haven't received the petition yet,

03:05but they are convinced that the Supreme Court will silence the power of the Senate to issue subpoenas and contempt.

03:12According to PAOC, the connection between Ong and Alice Goa has become clearer to the far-fetched bosses of Pogo

03:18in Bambantarlak and Porac, Pampanga.

03:20The far-fetched big bosses of Locke South 99 are the ones who helped Goa hide in Singapore and Indonesia.

03:27This is our allegation and it will be proven by our evidence and testimony that the two of them,

03:34Porac and Bambant, belong to one criminal organization.

03:37Their earnings in Locke South 99 became seed money for the establishment and start-up of the operation in Pampang.

03:46Goa is still in the PNP Custodial Center under the commitment order of Tarlac RTC Branch 109.

03:51But according to the justice secretary, the Bureau of Immigration should have custody of the former mayor.

03:57It's very clear that we have an immigration case here and that's very very important.

04:03Immigration case has a primacy over all others when it comes to Alice Goa.

04:07An immigration case should take precedence over everything.

04:10In fact, immigration case is non-bailable.

04:13Goa has many violations in immigration law.

04:16Fake passport, for being an alien actually, trying to pass yourself off as a Filipino.

04:21I think that's a very major major violation of law within our country.

04:27It's really an immigration matter.

04:30Possible deportation case but considering that she's an illegal alien,

04:34if everything is clear, she should be with the immigration.

04:38The lawyer of Goa has nothing to say about the deportation case.

04:42For GMA Integrated News, I'm Joseph Morong, your witness.

04:47Fifteen local civil registrars have issued incorrect birth certificates to foreign nationals,

04:54according to the Philippine Statistics Authority.

04:56It came out earlier in the Senate hearing regarding the budget of NEDA,

05:01where the PSA is an attached agency.

05:03The PSA was the first one to issue an incorrect birth certificate to dismissed mayor Alice Goa.

05:11And to stop this, the PSA said that the late registrants should be forced to apply for the national ID

05:18so that they can personally face and get the biometrics.

05:22Late registrants are those who registered after 30 days of pregnancy.

05:28According to the census, 3.7 million Filipinos have not yet registered and do not have a birth certificate.

05:35Families were evacuated to Canlaon City in Negros Oriental due to the eruption of the volcano Canlaon.

05:41Even other places near the volcano are preparing for their evacuation.

05:47Witness, Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV.

05:52Some families are preparing to evacuate to La Carlota City, Negros Occidental.

05:57Because the volcano Canlaon is erupting again.

06:00According to some residents, they are still feeling the earthquake yesterday.

06:05If you are pregnant, why are you so angry?

06:08Even if you are pregnant, you should be careful.

06:11If you are pregnant, you should be careful.

06:14Four barangays in La Carlota are being monitored now

06:18Four barangays in La Carlota are being monitored now.

06:20Because it is close to the volcano, classes in the barangays are suspended.

06:25In the town of La Castillana, residents are also preparing to evacuate.

06:39According to the LGU, residents are being reminded

06:43to avoid entering the 4-kilometer permanent danger zone of the volcano.

06:47Residents in four barangays in Canlaon City are being forced to evacuate.

06:52More than 100 families were brought to various evacuation centers.

06:57Classes were also canceled and tourist spots in the area were closed.

07:01According to the latest data of PHIVOX,

07:03337 volcanic earthquakes were recorded within the past 24 hours.

07:08Almost 10,000 tons of sulphur dioxide were released by the volcano.

07:13It is still under Alert Level 2.

07:16Residents are being reminded to be extra careful and to wear a face mask.

07:32For GMA Integrated News, Eileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV,

07:36here is your Saksi.

07:39Vice President Sara Duterte insisted that the Office of the Vice President should continue to work

07:44even if there is no budget to be given to them.

07:46Some congressmen are demanding that the budget of the Office of the Vice President should be discussed.

07:53Saksi, this is Sandra Aguinaldo.

07:57Now that the budget of the Office of the Vice President is still in the chamber,

08:01Vice President Sara Duterte said that they are ready.

08:04They are ready if the budget of the Office of the Vice President is still in the chamber.

08:10Vice President Duterte did not attend the OVP budget deliberation yesterday

08:15after the congressmen were able to respond to the last hearing on this issue.

08:20We also heard that there is defunding.

08:23The budget given to the Office of the Vice President is just a possible peso.

08:28We are ready, I am ready, to work in the Office of the Vice President

08:32even if there is no budget.

08:35Our operations are small.

08:37That's why we are able to work even if there is no budget.

08:41The Vice President also mentioned the planned impeachment against her,

08:45which is connected to the issue of confidential funds.

08:48She also said that the Speaker Martin Romualdez and the Makabayan Bloc have a grudge

08:54to attack her family.

08:56Because of Martin Romualdez's desire not to attack her

09:00and because of his desire to support the Makabayan and the NPA,

09:05he listened.

09:08And what he did was to remove the budget.

09:13And so that it is not obvious that they are attacking me,

09:16they also removed the other departments of their confidential funds.

09:26They are forcing me to do what they say is an impeachment against me.

09:34That's why it's not new that they are talking about impeachment.

09:39It is part of their plan against me.

09:44In 2024, the Office of the Vice President removed confidential funds from the Mamba Batas.

09:50After the first use of OVP in 2022,

09:54within just 11 days,

09:56there is no irregularity in the use of confidential funds.

10:01The Commission on Audit is still waiting for the document that will support

10:05how the OVP spent part of the confidential funds,

10:09which amounted to P73 million.

10:12The OVP said that it will pass it first.

10:15We listened to Speaker Romualdez's reaction again,

10:18but he did not respond.

10:19The House Appropriations Committee Chairman and I,

10:23Bicol Partylist Representative Zaldico,

10:25first said that the Vice President said that Romualdez controlled the national budget.

10:33He explained that there is a process of passing it and many Mamba Batas are investigating it.

10:39ACT-Teachers Partylist Representative Castro denied

10:43that the Makabayan Block is colluding with Romualdez

10:46to impeach Duterte.

10:48But the possibility of impeachment may result from the first misuse of confidential funds.

10:55He will continue to look into the legal aspects of the impeachment

10:59to prevent any abuse of the power and integrity of the country.

11:04Other congressmen also defended the camera.

11:07It's really her fault.

11:09How? Because she's a head of agency.

11:11It is her responsibility and accountability to explain.

11:16The House of Representatives' mandate is to pass the budget that is proposed every year.

11:25For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo is your witness.

11:32More than P100 million in aid for fishermen and fishermen was given to Ilocos Norte.

11:38It was given first by President Bongbong Marcos

11:40along with the celebration of the birth anniversary of former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr. in the town of Batac.

11:46The fishermen and fishermen in Ilocos Norte were severely affected

11:50due to the spread of El Niño and bad weather.

11:54The increase in electricity bill of Miralco is effective this month.

11:57According to Miralco, the increase in electricity bill is more than P15 per kilowatt hour this September.

12:03That's equivalent to an additional P31 in the total bill of the average family consuming 200 kilowatt hours.

12:10The main reason for the increase in the season charge this month

12:16is the higher ancillary service charges

12:20following the reopening of the reserve market on August 5.

12:27The task will continue until next month at P35 per kilowatt hour.

12:34The LRT-2 flight is limited from Antipolo to Vima this morning.

12:39Last morning at 7 a.m., the Light Rail Transport Authority announced the limited flight

12:44and some passengers were paralyzed.

12:46The LRTA explained that the rectifier No. 1 or breaker had a problem

12:50so the flight was limited.

12:52They asked for an explanation for what happened.

12:55The normal operation of the LRT-2 returned at 2 p.m.

12:59For GMI Integrated News, I'm Nico Juage, your witness.

13:04Before the witness, the Department of Health confirmed that there are 15 cases of mpox in the Philippines.

13:1011 are in Metro Manila and 3 are in Calabarzon.

13:14One is in Cagayan Valley.

13:16The MMDA will conduct a thorough information dissemination

13:20and information campaign on the disease to prevent it from spreading.

13:25The MMDA also plans to adopt a new ordinance in San Juan City

13:29on prohibiting swimming in the river to prevent leptospirosis.

13:34They will send a police officer to formally prohibit it,

13:37but they still need to issue their own ordinance on every payment for punishment and fine.

13:44The Senate Committee will request the court to allow Pastor Apolo Q. Buloy to appear in the Senate hearings.

13:51There are new allegations of sexual abuse against Pastor Apolo Q. Buloy

13:55from members of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ.

13:58Witness, Ian Cruz.

14:03The new accusations of sexual abuse against Pastor Apolo Q. Buloy

14:09were reported to the police while they were conducting an operation

14:13in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ compound in Davao City.

14:17The victims were members of a group of women called Pastoral,

14:23or those in the inner circle of Q. Buloy.

14:26Twelve-year-old girls were the youngest among them.

14:30The parents of the victims themselves approached the police.

14:34According to PNP chief, Rommel Francisco Marbil,

14:37the victims admitted that they experienced an alarming pattern of sexual abuse.

14:46They are now investigating the evidence to strengthen the case against Q. Buloy.

14:52They were also victimized by Pastor Q. Buloy, allegedly.

14:57They were also abused, allegedly.

14:59Q. Buloy's lawyer, Atty. Israelito Torion,

15:02has yet to comment on this issue

15:05because PNP has yet to provide clear details.

15:10There were hearings in the Senate

15:12regarding the allegations of sexual abuse against some members of the KOJC.

15:17Q. Buloy did not attend, so he was contempted this March.

15:21His questions are now collected.

15:24How was it set up?

15:25That the people he recruited as believers in him and his kingdom

15:32were abused by women, even minors,

15:37by men, but he also abused them.

15:40He forced them to convert,

15:42so that he could sustain his own livelihood.

15:48Effectively, he human-trafficked them in different parts of the Philippines

15:53and even in other countries.

15:55Q. Buloy's case was planned in the Senate.

15:58He just wanted to know the next hearing

16:01of the Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations, and Gender Equality.

16:05I will write to the Supreme Court

16:09so that maybe he will also be here

16:12as a follow-up to the Senate's standing warrant for him.

16:16GMA Integrated News reported that

16:18Q. Buloy's case will be heard by his lawyer,

16:22but they did not respond to our texts and calls.

16:26Senator Bato de la Rosa also wanted to know

16:29the details of Q. Buloy's case this past Sunday.

16:32I was not able to understand the exact details of his surrender.

16:38You are just inside.

16:40That's it. You are just inside.

16:43If you surrendered, how did you involve ISAP?

16:46There was no ISAP inside.

16:48Right?

16:49You don't need ISAP to enter the compound of QGC

16:53for you to surrender.

16:55You will be allowed by the police to control the area.

16:58Q. Buloy was charged with child and sexual abuse

17:01and his accomplices were accused

17:03in Quezon City RTC Branch 106.

17:06The court ordered that

17:09Pastor and Crescente Canada

17:12be jailed in the Quezon City Jail.

17:15In the female dorm,

17:17Jacqueline Roy, Ingrid Canada, and Silvia Semanyes will be jailed.

17:22It depends on the security assessment

17:24if they will be involved with another person deprived of liberty.

17:28The treatment, how we classify,

17:31if it's SELDA or treatment in an ordinary BDL,

17:35it's the same for him because it's also an ordinary BDL

17:38in terms of the budget.

17:40For now, the accused remains in the PNP Custodial Center

17:44because of the PNP's motion.

17:46Q. Buloy's camp would have preferred house arrest

17:49or to be transferred to the AFP's custody

17:52which is against the Department of National Defense.

17:56The AFP's facilities have strict security protocols

17:59so suspects with criminal cases cannot be jailed.

18:04The DOJ has ordered the court to grant it.

18:08As far as I remember,

18:11those who are being given house arrest

18:13are those who did not resist

18:18or agreed to be arrested.

18:21For GMA Integrated News, Ian Cruz is your witness.

18:26A jeepney driver confronted his fellow driver in Iloilo City

18:30while holding a sharp knife.

18:32Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV witnessed the fight.

18:42In the middle of the road,

18:43these two choppers fought in Iloilo City.

18:46Romulo Trabucon's traditional jeepney chopper

18:49was holding a knife.

18:51Mark Lagradante's modernized PUJ

18:53was being passed by a man with a baton.

18:57Their routes are the same in Iloilo City and vice versa.

19:01According to Lagradante,

19:02Trabucon blocked him several times

19:05from inside and outside of a mall.

19:07When it came to the fight,

19:08he took a road near them

19:10and confronted the jeepney driver.

19:13When I arrived here in Japan,

19:16I was already targeted

19:19when we were fighting.

19:21I was already prepared.

19:27I was already prepared.

19:31But Trabucon was the one who attacked him.

19:35He defended his knife

19:37when the jeepney driver approached him.

19:40I was already prepared.

19:42I was already prepared.

19:44I was already prepared.

19:46I was already prepared.

19:48I was already prepared.

19:50The police and barangay responded immediately.

19:53Both of them were also prepared.

19:55Trabucon's knife was already held by the police.

20:00In Ligao City, Albay,

20:01there is a dead baby in the compound of an elementary school.

20:05According to the police,

20:06two students saw the baby boy

20:09at the foot of the Ligao City Health Office

20:11was only 2 days old.

20:13They are still investigating who threw the baby.

20:17For GMA Integrated News,

20:19I am Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV.

20:22Here is your witness.

20:26There is no exception in the entrapment operation

20:28of women who are carrying out abortions in Bulacan.

20:31Witness is John Consulta.

20:38A group of people on social media

20:41allegedly promoted their super safe service

20:45to drop the baby in their abortion clinic.

20:49They even posted testimonials

20:52of their clients who became satisfied.

20:55So when it comes to the entrapment

20:57of the NBI Organized International Crime Division,

20:59they are no longer there.

21:01The mother of a 47-year-old and 20-year-old

21:04was arrested in her house in Baliwag, Bulacan.

21:07What is your name?

21:08Yes, please come with us.

21:10You are the one who was arrested, right?

21:11No, I am the one who was arrested.

21:13I am the one who was arrested.

21:15No, please come with us.

21:16No, I am the one who was arrested.

21:18You are the one who was arrested, right?

21:20Yes.

21:21Who will make the decision?

21:23Aside from Mark Mani,

21:24the equipment used by mothers

21:26to carry out abortion services

21:28has also been tampered with.

21:30It is really scary because

21:32the equipment or tools they use

21:36are unsanitized.

21:39You can see that some of them are still alive.

21:43They are still alive.

21:44The bed they use is just a foam bed.

21:49Maybe their clients have a tendency

21:53to have an infection or tetanus

21:56because the equipment is really unsanitized.

21:58To avoid being caught by them,

22:01the suspects are doing a discard.

22:04You will not go directly to the area

22:07where they will do it.

22:08You will follow them first.

22:10They will set a place for you to go

22:12and you will follow them.

22:13Just like here,

22:14they will take you to a mall

22:16and you will follow them there.

22:18Aside from the P20,000 payment,

22:20the suspects have extra charges

22:22against their clients.

22:24The payment is P20,000

22:26and they asked if the fetus

22:29will be delivered.

22:32When we said no,

22:34they asked for an additional P3,000

22:38for the delivery of the fetus.

22:41Additional P3,000 for the delivery of the fetus.

22:42Additional P3,000.

22:43Plus P2,000 for the after-meds.

22:48They asked for P25,000 for everything.

22:51We are still trying to catch the panic of the suspects

22:53who are looking for a complaint

22:55on illegal practice of medicine,

22:56violation of FDA law,

22:58illegal abortion in relation to cybercrime law.

23:00For GMA Illegality News,

23:02John Consulta is your witness.

23:07The work is not yet finished,

23:09but a lot has already been started.

23:11That is the message

23:12of the newly elected Bureau of Immigration Commissioner,

23:14Attorney Norman Tancingo.

23:16Tancingo is happy that there are changes

23:19despite his limitations.

23:21For example,

23:22the B.I.A. did its job

23:23in controlling the entry and exit borders of the country

23:26and in stopping human trafficking

23:28to Filipinos abroad.

23:30Tancingo also gave his associates

23:32in the agency

23:33and in the Department of Justice

23:35because they were able to implement

23:37the reform in the B.I.A.

23:45The senators in Mexico

23:47protested violently.

23:49They knocked on the door

23:51and forced them to enter inside.

23:53This is a form of reform

23:55in their constitution.

23:57And because of the chaos,

23:58the debate was stopped.

24:00The outgoing president of Mexico

24:02proposed the constitutional reform

24:04that can be implemented

24:05through the election by popular vote.

24:07The election of judges and magistrates

24:10as well as those in the Supreme Court.

24:15We can already feel the effect of the trough

24:16or the extension of the storm outside the P.A.R.

24:19that has an international name,

24:20Bebingka.

24:21At the same time,

24:22there is a continuous flood

24:24and a chance of localized thunderstorms.

24:27According to the forecast,

24:28the storm is likely to enter the P.A.R. on Friday.

24:32It has a low chance of landfall,

24:34but it will intensify

24:36in the next few days.

24:38According to the data of Metro Weather,

24:40it will rain tomorrow in a large part of the country,

24:43especially in the afternoon.

24:45Be alert in the event of a flood or landslide

24:47because the rain will be heavy

24:49in many places.

24:50As for those who will experience it,

24:52the entire Luzon and Visayas,

24:54Zamboanga Peninsula,

24:55Parm,

24:56Northern Mindanao,

24:57and Soxerget.

24:59In Metro Malena,

25:00the chance of rain is also high tomorrow.

25:04Let's go!

25:10Julian San Jose once again proved

25:12that he is Asia's Limitless Star.

25:15Because in just 9 minutes,

25:17he was able to compose a song.

25:21Pupunta palang

25:26Pupunta palang

25:32That happened during his interview

25:34in Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.

25:36According to Julian,

25:37he has been thinking about the melody of the song for a long time

25:40and he was able to compose the lyrics

25:42during the show.

25:43Until now,

25:44the Limitless Star has been very busy

25:46in his two shows.
