01:00We were able to get their custody around 5.30 p.m.

01:07from Davao City to Villamore City.
01:12According to the PNP,
01:13Pastor Quibuloy surrendered to the KOJC yesterday at 1.30 p.m.
01:19This was followed by a 24-hour police ultimatum.
01:23There was a negotiation.
01:25The PNP was led by an intelligence group
01:30and one of its accomplices
01:32that led to the peaceful surrender of Pastor Quibuloy and four others.
01:36When asked where Pastor Quibuloy was hiding,
01:39the PNP said,
01:40I don't have the liberty to reveal that.
01:43The important thing now is that he is in the custody of the PNP.
01:47Warrants of arrest were filed against Pastor Quibuloy and his four accomplices
01:50when they arrived at the custodial center.
01:52Pastor Quibuloy was charged with child abuse,
01:55sexual abuse,
01:57and qualified trafficking.
02:00They were charged with their cases
02:02and their lawyer was arrested.
02:04After that,
02:06they were charged with their Miranda rights
02:09and their rights.
02:11They were also charged with booking procedures,
02:13physical and medical examination.
02:15Three of them experienced high blood pressure.
02:18But the police refused to identify them.
02:21They were okay.
02:22They were given medication by our doctors,
02:25particularly for increasing BP.
02:29After a few minutes,
02:31they were examined again by doctors and nurses
02:35and they were okay.
02:36The booking was done.
02:37The inspection of their equipment was done.
02:42We will leave now because they will rest.
02:46They were brought to the room intended for them.
02:50We also asked the police in the cell
02:52where Pastor Quibuloy and four others are being held.
02:55All I can say is that they are now in the area
02:59where they will rest tonight.
03:03The CIDG is preparing the documents
03:06for the return of warrants to Quezon City RTC
03:10and Pasig RTC.
03:11James Agustin reporting for JMA Integrated News.
03:16Now that Pastor Apollo Quibuloy is being held by the police,
03:19Senator Rizal Antiveros believes that the pastor will be held accountable.
03:23According to Antiveros,
03:24the justice is now in his hands for the former members
03:27of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ who were victims of Quibuloy.
03:30The investigation of the committee that he led continues.
03:33Meanwhile, the lawyer of KOJC,
03:35Atty. Israelito Torreon,
03:37submitted to Quibuloy to stop his violence against the KOJC compound.
03:41The legal activities of Quibuloy's lawyers continue
03:45in connection with the cases he is facing.
03:53Let's update on the situation in the Senate.
03:55We have a message on the spot from Sandra Aguinaldo.
03:58Sandra?
03:59Yes Connie, we are now here in the Senate's Padilla Room
04:04where Dismissed Mayor Alice Goh is sitting.
04:07She is sitting in front of the resource person and senators.
04:19She is sitting alone.
04:21Sheila Goh is there.
04:23This is what many people thought,
04:26her brother, but they later clarified that they are not blood-related.
04:31But they grew up as siblings.
04:35Sheila Goh told her lawyer yesterday that she's excited to see Sheila.
04:45But when they saw each other here,
04:47they were just looking at each other.
04:49They didn't hug each other.
04:53They are sitting quietly in their seats.
04:58Alice is wearing a mask.
05:01When she arrived here, Connie, it was still early.
05:04It was past 8.30 a.m. or 9 a.m. when she arrived.
05:09She's wearing a Kevlar helmet and a bulletproof vest.
05:12Her hands are wrapped in a black jacket,
05:17indicating that she's wearing a mask.
05:19She's in the holding area.
05:22She's been there for almost an hour.
05:26They brought her here to the family room.
05:31But what we see here is that she's not wearing a mask.
05:34Her hands are wrapped in a black jacket.
05:38She's talking to her lawyers.
05:42The senators are complete.
05:44Here is the chairperson of the subcommittee, Senator Arisa Ontiveros,
05:50Senator Gingoy Estrada, Villanueva,
05:54ABA Herstito, Sherwin Gatchalian.
05:57So far, that's what we've seen from our vantage point.
06:00Connie?
06:01Yes, Sandra.
06:02What is the mood that we're seeing right now
06:05with the dismissed Tarlac Bambang Mayor, Alice Guo?
06:08Unlike what we saw earlier,
06:11she's always smiling.
06:13Of course, we can't see it because she's wearing a face mask.
06:16How is her overall demeanor?
06:19It's different from what we saw when she was brought to Indonesia.
06:26It's very different.
06:28Now, we can say that she's quiet.
06:31Most of the time, she's focused,
06:33except when her lawyer is talking to her.
06:36Connie, the hearing has already started.
06:39Connie?
06:40Alright, thank you very much, Sandra Aguinaldo.
