00:00A document signed by a former official of the government was found in the fallen Pogo compound in Porac, Pampanga.
00:09A PNP unit was also identified because of the donation.
00:12Live from June Federation, June.
00:20Emil, some documents and certificates, just like the appointment papers of a former person,
00:27a former presidential spokesperson, Harry Roque,
00:29was found inside the Pogo Hub raid here in Porac, Pampanga.
00:34The authorities said, Emil, that this is suspicious.
00:37Roque replied, don't mix this up.
00:45The remaining houses that are not yet investigated in this Pogo Hub compound were forced to enter
00:50because of illegal activities.
00:54In the security office, the PNP Regional Highway Patrol Unit 3
00:58received a Certificate of Recognition for the generous donations
01:03made by the company to the establishments operating in the compound.
01:09We are still trying to get the reaction of the chief of the Regional Highway Patrol Unit 3.
01:14But according to the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission of PAOC,
01:18Of course, if you know that this is illegal, why do you need to give appreciation?
01:23So, we will check that.
01:25How generous or how big or how the help was done, we will find out.
01:32PAOC was also surprised by the documents found in one of the dormitories.
01:38These are appointment papers of a former executive assistant in Malacanang
01:42in the office of the former presidential spokesperson, Harry Roque.
01:46This is scheduled for January 4, 2021.
01:49There is also an affidavit of support that was signed by Roque when he was no longer in the government.
01:55It states that he will pay the expenses of his former executive assistant
02:00for their trip to Europe in October of last year.
02:03That's what's surprising. Why are those documents here?
02:07Roque said that he is a lawyer who runs a company in a court case,
02:12but he has nothing to do with the Pogo operation.
02:15He said that the appointment papers of his ex-wife, when he was still in Malacanang, should not be mixed with color.
02:21I've been his employee for a long time, but he hasn't worked for me for a long time.
02:27I think he's studying somewhere in Clark. Maybe he lives there.
02:38In another dormitory,
02:40the Latigos who are suspected of using the Pogo Hub employees were caught.
02:45Text blasts or sending many messages of scammers were also found.
02:51The appointment papers were also collected to prove the contents of the Pogo Hub and their connections.
02:56In a statement, the Chinese embassy in the Philippine government said that Pogo is different.
03:02They have no basis for the measures being implemented in China in the Pogo operation.
03:07They say that the laws in China prohibit any type of gambling.
03:11And they have evidence that it is related to other crimes such as kidnap, ransom, human trafficking, and murder.
03:23The search of all 46 buildings in this compound has ended today,
03:28but the compound is still under lockdown and will be monitored.
03:33One of the possible things that will happen is the filing of a forfeiture case
03:37so that the government can get hold of the entire compound.
03:41Thank you very much, June Veneracion.
