00:00There was once again a tension between the police and the members of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ
00:06after the main gate of Jose Maria College was opened by the police.
00:11The PNP has a call to the founder of KOJC, Apollo Quiboloy,
00:17Janessa Felix of PTV Davao in Centro ng Balita Live.
00:23Yes, Angelique, it has been 10 days since the operation of the police
00:29to arrest Pastor Apollo Quiboloy and four of his accomplices.
00:35Around 8 a.m. earlier, there was once again a tension between the police and the members of KOJC
00:41after the main gate of Jose Maria College was opened by the police.
00:45Police Major Catherine Dilaray, spokesperson of Police Regional Office 11, explained
00:50that the main gate needs to be opened so that the police can freely enter the compound of KOJC
00:56as well as the supporters and members of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
01:00Police Major Dilaray also added that the opening of the main gate was not forced
01:05because the members of KOJC were allowed to speak.
01:08In the official statement issued by Attorney Estrella Itutorion,
01:12in the tension that happened earlier in the morning,
01:14he said that the forced opening of the Emerald Gate was clearly a harassment tactic.
01:19They did this to anger and arrest the members of KOJC.
01:23It will be easier for the police to enter their equipment inside the compound
01:28that does not reach the scanner.
01:30In the PNP, the operation of the police has been delayed for a long time
01:33because the supporters of Pastor have resistance.
01:36That's why the police are having a hard time doing their job inside the compound.
01:41The PNP also did everything to make the operation easier.
01:44The PNP called on Pastor Apollo Quiboloy to show that his supporters and members of KOJC
01:50should not be human shields.
01:53That's the update here in Davao City.
01:56Janessa Felix for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
02:00Thank you very much, Janessa Felix.
