00:00The Kingdom of Jesus Christ's founder, Pastor Apolo Quibuloy, is preparing to face the abuse within their organization.
00:09Quibuloy was again accused of a new sexual abuse complaint by the parents of his former victims.
00:16Here's the news of Ian Cruz.
00:19A new sexual abuse accusation against Pastor Apolo Quibuloy
00:25was filed against the police while they were conducting an operation in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ compound in Davao City.
00:33The victims were members of a group of women called Pastoral or those in the inner circle of Quibuloy.
00:42The youngest of the victims was just 16 years old.
00:46The parents of the victims themselves approached the police.
00:50According to PNP chief Rommel Francisco Marbil,
00:54the victims admitted that they experienced an alarming pattern of sexual abuse.
01:03They investigated the evidence to strengthen the case against Quibuloy.
01:09They were also victimized by Pastor Quibuloy, allegedly.
01:13He was also abused, allegedly.
01:15Quibuloy's lawyer, Atty. Israelito Torrion, has yet to comment on this
01:21because PNP has yet to provide a clear detail.
01:26There were hearings in the Senate regarding the former allegations of sexual abuse
01:31against some members of KOJC.
01:33Quibuloy did not attend, so he was contempted this March.
01:37His questions have now been collected.
01:40How was it set up?
01:41That the people he recruited as believers in him and his kingdom
01:48were instead abused by women, even minors,
01:53by men, but he also tortured them.
01:56He forced them to commit fornication
01:58so that he could sustain his own livelihood.
02:04Effectively, he human-trafficked them in different parts of the Philippines
02:09and even in other countries.
02:11Quibuloy's case is being planned in the Senate.
02:14The next hearing of the Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations, and Gender Equality
02:19is yet to be announced.
02:21I will write to the Supreme Court
02:25so that maybe he will also be here
02:28as a follow-up to the Senate's standing warrant for him.
02:32GMA Integrated News tried to get Quibuloy's statement about this
02:36through his lawyer,
02:38but they did not respond to our texts and calls.
02:42Senator Bato de la Rosa also wants to know the details of Quibuloy's confession
02:46this past Sunday night.
02:48I am not yet clear on the exact details of his surrender.
02:54You are just inside, hiding.
02:56You are just inside.
02:58If you surrendered, how did you involve the police?
03:01There was no police inside.
03:03Right?
03:05You have to go inside the compound of the UGC to surrender.
03:10The police will let you in.
03:12The area is under their control.
03:14Quibuloy was charged with child and sexual abuse
03:17and his accomplices were accused in the Quezon City RTC Branch 106.
03:22If the court gives its consent,
03:25Pastor and Cresente Canada will be transferred to this prison in the Quezon City Jail.
03:31In the female dorm,
03:33Jacqueline Roy, Ingrid Canada and Sylvia Semanyes will be jailed.
03:38It depends on the security assessment
03:40if they will be mixed with another person deprived of liberty.
03:44The treatment, how we classify,
03:47if Zelda is treated with an ordinary PDL,
03:51it's the same for her because it's just an ordinary PDL in terms of budget.
03:56For now, the accused is being held at the PNP Custodial Center
04:00because of the PNP's motion.
04:02Quibuloy's camp would have preferred a house arrest
04:05or to be transferred to the custody of the AFP,
04:08which is against the Department of National Defense.
04:12There is a strict security protocol in the facilities of the AFP
04:15so the suspects who have criminal cases cannot be jailed.
04:20The DOJ has already asked the court to grant it.
04:24As far as I remember,
04:27those who are being given house arrest are those who did not resist
04:34or agreed to be arrested immediately.
