00:00Let's find out the details of Alice Goh's case in the Tarlac Regional Trial Court.
00:06The two cases of defamation are available in the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act
00:12that the former mayor is facing, but he did not ask for an appeal.
00:18Chino Gaston is on the case.
00:20He's wearing a bulletproof vest, has a mask on his head, and surrounded by a lot of police escorts.
00:29Dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Goh was facing earlier in Branch 109 of the Tarlac Regional Trial Court.
00:36From the PNP Custodial Center in Campo Crame, where he was imprisoned,
00:40the former mayor was brought to Tarlac to face in the court of Judge Sara Vedania de los Santos
00:46that issued a warrant of arrest for the two cases of defamation in the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act
00:52because of his or her involvement in the abduction of Bamban.
00:56The warrant of arrest issued by the RTC takes precedence over the arrest warrant issued by the Senate.
01:03If there will be a hearing in the Senate and the PNP is still in custody,
01:11in this case, the Senate will request the same court that issued the warrant of arrest.
01:16Although the cases against him are bailable,
01:18Goh's lawyers did not file a petition for bail for his temporary release.
01:24We see no reason for that, considering that even if he will be bailed,
01:28he will still not get the purpose, considering that he still has another warrant of arrest.
01:35Since then, Goh was brought back to Campo Crame because he was ordered to be imprisoned by the court while his case was heard.
01:44While being released from the court, some supporters of Goh became emotional when they saw him.
01:51Goh's fellow campo filed a motion to accept his counter-affidavit
01:55in the complaint of qualified human trafficking filed by the Department of Justice under POGO Hub in Bamban.
