00:00 Senator Rizon Taveras pushes for a Senate order to arrest Davao-based preacher Apol
00:05 Kiboloy.
00:06 This, as Kiboloy continues to reject a Senate summons to answer accusations levelled at
00:11 him by his former followers.
00:13 Kiboloy, through lawyer Melanio Elvis Balayan, submitted his response to a show-cause order
00:18 from the Senate on Friday, March 15.
00:20 He maintains the ongoing Senate investigation is "not in aid of legislation and is beyond
00:25 the powers of the Senate."
00:27 Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla earlier ordered prosecutors in Davao and Pasig to
00:32 file cases of sexual abuse of a minor and qualified trafficking against Kiboloy.
00:37 Taveras says she would formally request Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri to approve the
00:42 warrant.
00:43 Taveras says Kiboloy should just show up.
00:46 Why does he have to resort to so much drama?
