00:00Comelec started investigating if there are similar fingerprints in the documents held by Bamban Mayor Alice Guo.
00:09Part of what is known is if she was against the election law of the country.
00:14Ian Cruz is on the case.
00:20Five documents were turned over by Comelec Bamban to the fact-finding team of the Commission on Elections.
00:26They were able to get the application for voter's registration of Bamban Mayor Alice Guo
00:32as well as her Certificate of Registration and Certificate of Candidacy.
00:37The Election Day Voters List of 2022 and 2023 is also the same.
00:42What the fact-finding team of Comelec is doing is looking
00:46if there are similar fingerprints in the documents from the local Comelec.
00:52There are four documents held by Mayor Alice Guo.
00:57They want to know if the one who registered as a voter and filed the COC
01:03and the voters in the last two elections is only one person.
01:08There is no conclusion to be made here.
01:11These are mere initial findings and will be submitted to the Comelec Law Department.
01:17As far as I know, did Guo violate the election law of the country?
01:21Especially, the NBI said that there is only one Chinese national,
01:25which is Guo Huaping and Mayor Guo based on their fingerprints.
01:29Only Filipinos can run in the election.
01:32And in the documents that Guo filed, he said that he is Filipino.
01:37We want to know if there is really a misrepresentation?
01:40Is there a lie?
01:42And therefore, what is the punishment if it is proven that there is such a person?
01:47The Comelec fact-finding is almost the same as the co-warrantor petition
01:51filed yesterday by the Solicitor General in Manila RTC
01:56that may be a way for Guo to leave the government.
02:01Meanwhile, the famous Pogo Hub of Bamban
02:05is planned to be the commercial center of the acting mayor of the town.
02:09In order for our town to have an income,
02:11we will let those who want to be listed.
02:14They are giving full cooperation to the authorities.
02:18If I am really alone, I cannot do anything.
02:22They have not seen the suspended mayor for more than a month
02:26and he is not able to talk.
02:28Where is he?
02:29I don't know where he is.
02:31There is still no warrant of arrest from the court,
02:34but there is a warrant of arrest against Guo from the Senate
02:38after he was contempted because he did not attend the Pogo hearing.
02:42If I were Mayor Alice,
02:44I will invite you to the Senate after this discussion.
02:48He will not be spared if he gives in to me.
