00:14A former cop in China, the top executive of Whirlwind Corporation, Duan Ren Wu,
00:21was the one who was interviewed by Cassandra Lee Ong in the fourth hearing of the House Squad Committee.
00:28So he was a former employee of the Chinese government, correct?
00:32He was just a simple cop.
00:35But again, he resigned.
00:38Cassandra's best friend, her mother, Wu, also told the story.
00:41She became her mentor.

01:12She was immediately given medical attention and her vital signs were checked.
01:18May I proceed to Cassie Ong, Mr. Chair?
01:21Just a couple of questions.
01:23Congresswoman Luisa, can we give her three minutes?
01:26She has to, I think she's not feeling well.
01:29According to the House of Representatives Medical Director,
01:33Ong's sugar level dropped and her blood pressure also dropped to 80-40.
01:39Before 7 p.m. last night,
01:41she was rushed to the ambulance and brought to the nearest hospital
01:46because there was not enough facility for Ong's medical condition to be checked.
01:53In that case, having this kind of blood pressure and the staggering blood sugar,
01:59don't you think it's a high time to bring her to the hospital?
02:02Yes, sir. Or at least two, three days. Just to give the proper workup, sir.
02:08It was also discovered that before Cassandra went to the hearing,
02:12her blood pressure dropped to 70-40,
02:15the lowest level recorded by the House Medical Team,
02:18within the same day that she was kept in the house detention facility.
02:23And she was also chosen to eat.
02:26Sir Grisel Irene Pobal de Peñas from the LSQ.
02:32Mr. Chair, she has a specific food that she wants to eat every time we provide food to her.
02:40Cassandra Lee Ong is one of the speakers of the House-Wide Committee on the Hearing of Illegal Operations in the Country,
02:48where she was detained in the House of Representatives
02:52after being cited in contempt by the committee for not telling the truth.
