00:00The Philippines went home and surrendered to the NBI the former Iloilo City Mayor Jed Patrick Mabilog to face the Graff case.
00:08He served 7 years of self-imposed exile abroad after being transferred to the drug matrix of the former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:16John Consulta has the story.
00:20After falling from grace, the former Iloilo City Mayor Jed Mabilog surrendered to the NBI-NCR agents
00:27who brought a copy of his warrant of arrest.
00:29Mabilog was taken to the NBI office in Manila where he will undergo some booking procedures such as fingerprints and mug shots.
00:37We received our NBI-NCR surrender filler that Mayor Mabilog wanted to return and face his cases.
00:48He was part of the narco-politics that was on the list of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:56He went to the U.S. and seeked asylum there.
01:00Now, it's better for him to return to the Philippines and face his case.
01:08After the process, Mabilog went straight to Sandigan Bayan, where he begged for protection from the NBI, according to NBI Director Jamie Santiago.
01:20If he asks for a protection order, we will refer him to the DOJ's witness protection program.
01:27He may have some fears for his life and we are willing to grant protection of sorts, unless of course, he can be given witness protection later on.
01:39Mabilog expressed his readiness to appear in a quad-com hearing on camera in case he can receive an invitation.
01:46To let the public know what happened to him, his ultimate goal is really to vindicate himself.
01:55For Jaime Inigredient News, John Consulta, Nakatutok, 24 Hours.
