00:00Some party lists have already filed their candidatures.
00:0415 nominees from different party lists have filed their Certificates of Nominations and Certificates of Acceptance of Nominations today.
00:1320% of the total members of the Camera are from the party lists.
00:18The party lists that will get at least 2% of the total votes will get a single position in the Camera.
00:30It's a shame that the candidatures of some parties that want to run in the election of 2025 are so close.
00:36So, Comelec and Polisya have a reminder for them and their supporters from Manila Hotel.
00:42Live from Maki Pulido, Maki.
00:49You know, Emil, Comelec is talking to the candidates not to bring a lot of noisy supporters to file their Certificates of Candidacy.
00:59There are a lot of policemen here, but not to arrest them, but to talk to them to leave in front of Manila Hotel.
01:14This party list will have a rally before their nominees will file their Certificates of Candidacy.
01:20There was a bit of tension when the police asked them to leave, but they were allowed to leave because the short program is about to end.
01:26Some supporters of a senator are waiting outside Manila Hotel where the COC filing is taking place.
01:32The police said that if the supporters want to gather and do the program, the venue of the filing of the COC should not be in front of Manila Hotel.
01:40They said that they should do it near the Kilino Grandstand so that they won't be able to fight.
01:44They will be there in Pandaron.
01:46First of all, they will be able to fight inside because they will be using microphones and megaphones.
01:52This is just a discussion. Maybe we will know where we will be placed.
02:00The election rules do not prohibit the noise and gathering of supporters because the campaign is not yet time, according to Comilec.
02:07That's why Comilec decided to have a discussion so that they won't be able to fight.
02:12You should show that you are an exemplary candidate just to go to the filing of the COC.
02:18They also hope that their candidates will go to the local Comilec field offices.
02:24The office of Comilec in the field is smaller, the road is smaller, there will be more traffic.
02:29That's why I hope that we won't bring them.
02:31Since this is just the filing of the COC, there is enough time for you to campaign and introduce yourselves to our countrymen.
02:39In Comilec Resolution 11-045, in the local position, the only one who can enter to file the COC are the candidate and three others.
02:47In the national position, there are the candidate and four supporters.
02:50The secretary general, chairman, or president of a party list can also include four people.
02:55Since the election is near, PNP chief Romel Marbiel reminded the police not to side with any politician.
03:03We will make sure that we are political.
03:04Those people who will be involved and will be biased, we will remove them and we will be filing administrative cases.
03:16There are four policemen who are watching the situation inside and outside Manila Hotel.
03:21But they said that they hope that our candidates will follow Comilec's instructions.
03:30Emil?
03:31Thank you very much, Maki Pulido.
03:35Ten people were found guilty in the murder of a former UST Law student named Accio Castillo due to hazing.
03:44They were sentenced to life imprisonment and were paid damages.
03:49Dano Tingcunco was found guilty.
03:55Finally, justice for Accio Castillo.
03:59Guilty beyond reasonable doubt is the case of the Manila Regional Trial Court Branch 11
04:03for the 10 members of the Aegis Yuris Fraternity
04:06for violating Section 4-1 of the Anti-Hazing Law of 1995.
04:11They were sentenced to life imprisonment or maximum up to 40 years in prison
04:17for hazing a 22-year-old UST Law student.
04:21They were also paid almost half a million actual expenses
04:25and 75,000 pesos in moral damages, exemplary damages and civil indemnity.
04:31The guilty verdict is a team effort.
04:34We all placed our 100% and we got our conviction.
04:39It's a long journey, seven years.
04:42This is how we imagined it to be.
04:46We will bring it here.
04:51Those seven years, I think for our son, it is worth it.
04:56The seven years of hazing started in 2017.
05:03The child is not at fault.
05:06They were just playing.
05:08You can't do anything.
05:11You killed him.
05:13You killed him.
05:18In September, the Castillo family received a message from an unknown person
05:22that their child is no longer with them.
05:24They just found their child in a funerary in Manila.
05:27Maybe in the labyrinth of Acho, there is a big trap.
05:30Acho was believed to have died from repeated paddling
05:34while he was under the initiation rites of the Aegis Yuris Fraternity.
05:38He told me, Dad, I joined. There are a lot of benefits.
05:41He was assured that they would not do anything.
05:48And then with full confidence, he said yes.
05:52What's more painful is how it was revealed that he was just found lying on a bench in Tondo
05:58and John Paul Solano just passed by,
06:00when he found out that he is related to his brother.
06:03Solano also revealed that he parked a red pickup truck
06:07to bring Acho to the hospital.
06:09But in the end, the family of another frat's vehicle was discovered.
06:14In a previous case of obstruction of justice, Solano was found guilty.
06:19Before these encounters, Acho was last seen alive
06:22walking near the UST on September 16.
06:25Early the next day,
06:27some of his frat's members hurried to their frat life.
06:31Past 8 in the morning,
06:33a convoy of a black vehicle, a red pickup truck, and a motorcycle
06:38brought Acho to the Chinese General Hospital
06:41where he was declared dead on arrival.
06:44A chat group was also formed where some of the accused were identified.
06:49Earlier, the lawyers and relatives of the found guilty
06:53who became emotional while appearing in court did not give any statement.
06:56According to the decision,
06:58the evidence and testimonies proved the 3 elements needed to say that there is hazing.
07:03First, there is initiation right.
07:05Second, there is neophyte in Acho's body.
07:08And third, he went through an embarrassing or painful situation.
07:13It was also proven, according to the court,
07:15the presence in the initiation of the 10 accused.
07:18At the same time, under the anti-hazing law,
07:21there is no need for actual pain.
07:23The answer is the same if there is an accused
07:26and nothing was done while the neophyte was injured.
07:29The accused also did not present any solid evidence or testimony
07:34to support the argument that they are not included in the hazing.
07:37And even if Acho has a condition in his heart,
07:40that's why he died of cardiac arrest,
07:42according to the court,
07:43the pain in him made it worse and accelerated his death.
07:48This is justice for Acho and win for the prosecution.
07:52Thank you so much for all your support.
07:55But aside from the 10 accused,
07:57Acho's parents also want the University of Santo Tomas to be held accountable.
08:01I'm holding University of Santo Tomas responsible for the death of our son.
08:07It has been proven that AGS Juris has been practicing hazing.
08:12And it's time to check your policies,
08:15the university, the civil law department,
08:19the dean himself, failed to protect our son.
08:24I think it's about time heads should roll in UST.
08:28For GMA Integrated News, I'm Dan Ating Cunco for 24 Hours.
08:34Although he sympathizes with Acho's parents,
08:38the dean of UST civil law does not agree with their statement.
08:43What Acho's mother said was particular,
08:46that UST and the faculty of civil law were wrong in protecting the former law student.
08:52UST always implements measures for the safety and well-being of students.
09:01But there are individuals who are neglecting this.
09:04They are ensuring a safe environment
09:08and are doing their best so that the tragedy will not happen again.
09:18And we will update on the super typhoon Julian
09:21and its continuous effects in the current situation
09:24with Amor La Rosa of GMA Integrated News Weather Center.
09:28Amor.
09:30Thank you, Ms. Vicky.
09:32It is expected that the super typhoon Julian will return to the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
09:40Even though it is outside of Par,
09:42the number one signal is still high here in Ilocos Norte,
09:46Ilocos Sur, La Union, northern and western portions of Pangasinan,
09:50Apayaw, Abra, Kalinga, and also in Mountain Province.
09:53The number one signal is also here in Ifugawa, Benguet, Batanes, Cagayan,
09:58Babuyan Islands, northern and western portions of Isabela,
10:01and also in the northwestern portion of Nueva Vizcaya.
10:05It is still expected that there will be strong gusts of wind that will be accompanied by thunderstorms.
10:10The last sighting of the typhoon was at 245 kilometers,
10:14Canluran, Puya of Itbayak, Batanes.
10:16It caused a strong wind of 195 kilometers per hour
10:21and a gust of 240 kilometers per hour.
10:25It was very strong and it moved slowly to the north-northwest.
10:30According to the weather forecast,
10:32the typhoon Julian caused the most rainfall
10:35in Basco, Batanes.
10:37It reached 727.8 millimeters yesterday, the last day of September.
10:43According to the weather forecast,
10:45this is the highest rainfall recorded in the history of Batanes.
10:52Now, if we go back to the last sighting of the typhoon,
10:55it was a bit shaky and it moved in many directions.
10:58Because of the high-pressure areas around our Philippine area,
11:02a responsibility prevented and affected the movement of the typhoon.
11:07From Friday until this weekend, it was moving downwards.
11:11Then, it turned around or it seemed to U-turn before it rose.
11:15Then, it moved to the extreme northern Luzon
11:19until it re-curved or it turned around again.
11:22Now, that part of the Philippine Area of Responsibility is out,
11:27but it is expected to return tomorrow.
11:30It will continue to hit the part of Taiwan where it is expected to landfall.
11:36After that, it will continue to leave the Philippine Area of Responsibility
11:41on Thursday night or on Friday morning.
11:45It still depends if there will be a change in its movement in the next few hours.
11:51Aside from the super typhoon,
11:53it will also bring rain to our country on Easter days.
11:56That is the hot and windy wind from the Pacific Ocean
11:59and also the localized thunderstorms.
12:02Based on the data of Metro Weather,
12:04it is still possible to experience rain tonight
12:07in some parts of Batanes and Babuyan Islands
12:10and also in some parts of Ilocos Provinces.
12:14It can happen again tomorrow,
12:15but it will not be the same as what we experienced
12:18when the typhoon hit the extreme northern Luzon.
12:23In other parts of Luzon,
12:24on Tuesdays and Sundays,
12:26there are scattered rains here in Calabarzon,
12:29Mimaropa, and also in some parts of Bicol Region.
12:33We are hoping that in Metro Manila,
12:35it will still be sunny and if it rains,
12:38it is because of the localized thunderstorms
12:41that we usually experience in the afternoon or night.
12:44In Visayas, there is also a chance of rain in Antique
12:47as well as here in Negros Island Region
12:49and some parts of Eastern and Central Visayas.
12:53A large part of Mindanao will be rained
12:55because of the possible thunderstorms.
12:58We can see that there are strong rains
13:00in some parts of Barm
13:02as well as here in Soxargen and Caraga.
13:05So, be careful for the residents
13:07because it is also possible for floods to occur.
13:11For the latest news in our time,
13:13I am Amor La Rosa.
13:14This is the GMA Integrated News Weather Center.
13:17Expect any time.
13:20Three months suspended in driving.
13:24The two jeepney drivers
13:26were in a fight with each other.
13:30They also confessed in front of the LTO
13:33that Joseph Moro was hit.
13:36On Thursday night,
13:37a week ago,
13:38the two jeepneys collided with each other
13:41in Caloocan,
13:42causing their vehicles to hit each other.
13:45The video was shown by the Land Transportation Office
13:48Intelligence and Investigation Division
13:50to the two drivers who were involved.
13:52The two were called upon
13:53after a show-cause order was issued by the agency.
13:56According to the two drivers,
13:57they went forward at the same time
13:59but the jeepney driver on the right
14:01was hit by the jeepney driver on the left.
14:03The jeepney driver on the right
14:04was hit by the jeepney driver on the left
14:06because his head was hit.
14:08The two drivers admitted
14:09that their heads were hit because of fatigue.
14:12The jeepney driver on the left
14:13lost his mind
14:15while driving.
14:17He was hit four times by the driver on the right.
14:25But the jeepney driver on the right confessed
14:27that he was also hit
14:29and was hit by the jeepney driver on the left.
14:34When the LTO asked,
14:36the driver on the left
14:37came out without a license
14:39while the driver on the right
14:40came out with a paper license.
14:42Because of the incident,
14:43it was possible for the LTO
14:44to cancel the driver's license
14:46of the two jeepney drivers,
14:48which they are appealing
14:49because they do not know any other job.
15:04I was hit by one of the drivers
15:06while his operator was appealing
15:08not to cancel his license.
15:15The two drivers were suspended
15:16for three months for driving.
15:18They were also subjected to a drug test.
15:20Aside from them,
15:21according to the LTO,
15:22the operators of the jeepneys
15:24who were involved in the accident
15:26were also responsible
15:28because they were hit by the jeepney driver on the left.
15:32The recommendation here is
15:33revocation of license.
15:35The only question is,
15:37even the vehicle,
15:38we will remove the registration.
15:40For GMA Integrated News,
15:42Joseph Morong,
15:43for Tutok 24 Horas.
15:46Even though there are others
15:47who continue to pursue
15:48the search for justice
15:49for some of the children
15:50who are missing in Bongero,
15:52they called the Department of Justice
15:54but they were the ones
15:55who were the first to notice.
15:57Here is my report.
16:00The case of the disappearance
16:01of the Bongero residents of Bulacan
16:03who are Glenn Hermar,
16:05Kiel Bohol,
16:06Mark Joseph Ignacio,
16:08Romualdo Diano,
16:09Erick Legaspi,
16:10and Nerio Anticristo
16:12is still not happening.
16:14More than three years have passed
16:15since they were suspected to be missing
16:17after the explosion in Santa Cruz, Laguna.
16:20Glenn's mother,
16:21Ms. Marlene,
16:22was affected by the explosion
16:24and was taken to the hospital.
16:26Glenn's mother, Ms. Marlene,
16:27was affected by the explosion
16:29and was taken to the hospital.
16:45Until now,
16:46they are still thinking
16:47about why their complaint
16:48did not reach the prosecutor's office
16:50and that the PNP-CIDG
16:51did not file a case.
16:56There are videos
16:57of the explosion itself.
16:58Even the so-called gate pass,
17:00they still did not receive it.
17:02There is no solid evidence.
17:04There is no evidence
17:05of the explosion itself.
17:07The wife of one of the missing people
17:09showed us this video.
17:11It was proven that
17:12her husband was there in the explosion
17:14and the chicken was still laying
17:16before it happened that day.
17:19We always ask for an update
17:22but where are you?
17:23It's like you're just giving us
17:25what we need.
17:27Please don't be like that.
17:29Have mercy on us.
17:30We've been working for four years.
17:33Is it our job to look for evidence?
17:35They should be looking for evidence
17:37for us.
17:39Because we are dependent on them.
17:43Last week,
17:44DOJ reported that
17:46the family of the missing
17:48E-Sabong Master Agent,
17:50John John Lasco,
17:51was involved in their case
17:53against several police officers
17:54involved in the kidnapping.
17:55They called the DOJ
17:57and their case
17:58was the first to be noticed.
18:00We don't have a vocabulary
18:01to back out.
18:02How can we back out?
18:03Until now,
18:04they haven't given us
18:05a clear explanation.
18:06We are continuing our efforts
18:07to get the DOJ's statement.
18:09Meanwhile,
18:10the hearing in Manila Regional Trial Court Branch 40
18:14of the kidnapping case
18:15and Serious Illegal Detention
18:17against six guards,
18:18including the disappearance
18:19of seven sabongeros
18:20from Tanay Rizal
18:21who had a derby in Manila Arena.
18:23The prosecution once again
18:24obtained evidence.
18:26For GMA Integrated News,
18:28Emil Sumangil,
18:29Nakatutok 24 Hours.
18:33Repeatedly investigated,
18:35but there are still
18:36illegal parades
18:37on a road
18:38that crosses
18:39Makati and Taguig.
18:40One of their jeeps
18:42was only used
18:43for sleeping.
18:44Nakatutok is Ian Cruz.
18:49In the afternoon,
18:50the Makati Public Safety Department
18:52or Makati PST
18:53operated again
18:54in Chino Rosas Avenue Extension.
18:57In front of an establishment,
18:59a parked delivery van was caught.
19:02You should be inside.
19:04You're obstructing.
19:05The people will pass by here.
19:07Instead of there,
19:08they will pass by the street.
19:10I will bring documents
19:11because it's our office.
19:13I will bring documents
19:14so that they can leave.
19:15I was just tempted.
19:18On the curved part
19:19of Chino Rosas,
19:20the jeeps were stopped
19:21and tied up.
19:23You're parked on the street.
19:26There's a bike lane here.
19:28We're just resting.
19:30We're just resting.
19:31Don't you have a garage
19:33where you can rest?
19:34We don't have one.
19:36A jeepney also said
19:37to stop in the area.
19:39The driver said
19:40he just stopped
19:41a senior citizen
19:43and his companion.
19:44I didn't stop.
19:45I just stopped them.
19:46Ask him, sir.
19:47I'm just passing by.
19:48I'm just passing by.
19:49The vehicle is old.
19:51Yes.
19:52Thank you, sir.
19:54Okay, okay.
19:55But I don't have anything here.
19:59Thank you, sir.
20:02Near Tulay,
20:03on the boundary of Makati and Taguig,
20:05the enforcers
20:06asked the vehicles
20:07to leave
20:08on the side of the road.
20:10Many people left.
20:14But this jeepney
20:16didn't move.
20:17And when they approached...
20:20Hello, sir.
20:21Are you the owner?
20:22Yes.
20:23I'm the driver.
20:25The man who just woke up
20:26said
20:27his chopper didn't move.
20:29Because the chopper
20:30was looking for him,
20:31the man who was bought by the jeepney
20:33was stopped by the obstruction.
20:35According to Makati PSD,
20:36they regularly operate
20:37on Chino Roses Avenue.
20:39But when they're gone,
20:41the enraged motorists
20:42come back.
20:44GMA Integrated News

20:50against the obstruction
20:51on Chino Roses Avenue.
