00:00He is the leader after the Almighty Father's heart, for he has seen the heart of this man.
00:23He is the leader after the Almighty Father's heart, for he has seen the heart of this man.
00:30He became a pastor. He introduced himself to God that he will save the whole world.
00:39And he called himself the appointed son of God.
00:44He is Pastor Apolo Carion Quiboloy.
00:49With the Father's guidance through his appointed son.
00:53Many believed in his promises and words.
00:58That is why millions of people joined the K.O.J.C. of Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
01:07I look to the sight of God.
01:10I also believe in God.
01:12My members have nothing to say about this.
01:15Provided they allow me, I am a pastor.
01:19He also had his own television station where he aired his church services.
01:26He also built the largest indoor arena in the world.
01:35But the King is now facing a series of complaints.
01:42Including cases of sexual abuse, money laundering, and human trafficking.
01:49Even from the members of his church.
01:54I said, don't worry about what will happen inside the room with Quiboloy.
02:00As long as I give myself.
02:03He came to my room to have a s**t.
02:05And I was crying. I said that I don't want.
02:08He got mad at me. He said like, you're going to hell because of that.
02:11He said, you're going to hell because of that.
02:14He said, you're going to hell because of that.
02:17Being the appointed Son of God sent in these last days of the Father's emissary.
02:22The one who introduced the Savior.
02:25Hospice! Hospice!
02:28That it is the Father Almighty's perfect will.
02:38That He intervenes.
02:39That He will save Himself from the law.
02:49The promised paradise on earth to their members.
02:54Here in Davao City.
02:56Where Quiboloy built his kingdom.
02:59This is where I found the commandments.
03:04It's in my message now that I preach to the whole world.
03:09The appointed Son of God who also introduced the owner of the universe.
03:14He lived in a luxurious mansion and had a luxurious life.
03:19He became a close friend of those in power.
03:23Including the former President Rodrigo Duterte.
03:26Whatever I have in the ministry as a blessing, I share it with him.
03:30The things that Pastor Quiboloy gave, are you sure that it does not come with strings attached?
03:35There's no strings attachment. It's just real friendship.
03:39He used to dream of becoming a pilot.
03:42He owned not only a helicopter, but also a private jet.
03:47But according to some rumors in their church.
03:50All of this wealth was taken by Quiboloy in exchange for the sacrifice of their members.
03:58One of the original members of KOJC is 15-year-old Arlene who is now in America.
04:06I was 14 years old when I first visited Pastor Quiboloy's church.
04:13They have free rides and free snacks.
04:17Until we decided to be baptized.
04:20Every member is obligated to attend their church.
04:26My quota at that time was 600 to 800.
04:31Arlene stopped her studies and left Manila.
04:34It depends on what the leader wants.
04:38If you're going to sell, you can't go home.
04:43Nathaniel of Mindanao experienced to ask for a donation.
04:49I will go to the mall. I will just speak there.
04:53The collected money will go to the kingdom for Quiboloy.
04:58What is this for?
04:59This is for practice teaching.
05:06They are forced to do everything because the members who will not reach the quota are waiting for punishment.
05:14Just like the former member of KOJC, Carla.
05:19Her name is not her real name.
05:21We were squatted.
05:24You will be ashamed in front of the warfare.
05:25They will tell you that you are a demon.
05:29This is what we call a worker's house or a mansion.
05:33This is where the people who sell, who work, who solicit.
05:37This is where the torture takes place.
05:40Until Arlene, who is also called Carla, both left KOJC.
05:47I can't sleep because of my conscience.
05:50I cry. I tell myself that I want to worship the true God.
05:54I was assigned to the civil.
05:56That's where I spent most of my money.
05:58I just hid in an internet cafe all day so that they can't see me.
06:02I said, enough is enough.
06:05The members of KOJC have what they call a prayer mountain that serves as a spiritual sanctuary.
06:14It is located in Kalinan District, near the foot of Mount Apo.
06:19In 2008, Pastor Qibuloy wanted to expand the 8-hectare land in Barangay Tamayong
06:28as well as the ownership of the land of the former residents of De Omano.
06:32He was interested.
06:34They came before Qibuloy.
06:37That's where they were born. That's where they grew up.
06:40Their claim is their land.
06:43The houses of the former residents of De Omano
06:45were burned by the pastor.
06:47The former leaders of the Lumad were also burned.
06:50According to the narrative, the perpetrator is the Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
06:54He went to the CHR and filed cases against him.
06:57But as to negotiate with Pastor Qibuloy, nothing happened.
07:01He could have refused to give him the land.
07:06Now, they are still in the negotiation process.
07:09The issues with them are already in the court.
07:12That is already the jurisdiction of the court.
07:14But Pastor Qibuloy's most dangerous case
07:19was a sexual assault on female members of their church.
07:25One of them is Amanda, a minor.
07:29Her real name is unknown.
07:31She was invited to testify in the Senate.
07:36I was 10 years old when my father became a full-fledged member of KGC.
07:40My brother and I were recruited there to be full-time workers.
07:45We were told that we will be given free education
07:48and an allowance with free board and lodging.
07:52At first, Amanda was just an ordinary member of KOJC
07:56until she was given a new duty
07:59to serve Pastor Qibuloy in what they call night duty.
08:04She was only 17 years old.
08:06Amanda, this is your connection to God.
08:08You have to sanctify yourself.
08:10This is part of the ministry of the pastorals' job to massage Qibuloy.
08:16This is a special privilege
08:18because not everyone can hold and be close to the Son of God.
08:21Before I took a bath,
08:23I was given a T-shirt with buttons and pajama pants,
08:26a bottle of shampoo and lotion for me to use,
08:29which is Qibuloy's favorite.
08:31I will take a bath and brush my teeth properly.
08:33Until she was given a massage by Pastor Qibuloy,
08:37she was sent home to be crucified.
08:40He started to remove the buttons from my T-shirt.
08:44When I was lying down,
08:46Qibuloy started to kiss me.
08:51He started to kiss me on my neck.
08:53I got scared.
08:55I wanted to scream for help.
08:57I asked him what he was doing.
08:59But I remembered that I was not allowed to ask questions.
09:02I had a lot of questions,
09:04but I thought that maybe this is the Father's will in my life.
09:11Eventually, Amanda realized that she was not the only victim.
09:16There were many more.
09:18I have many companions who are younger than me.
09:21Even when we were inside,
09:24they were still there for me.
09:26We fought side by side.
09:30Not only Filipinos became victims of Qibuloy,
09:34some of them came from the KOJC congregation in other countries,
09:40such as Sofia, Nina, and Iona.
09:43They were not real names,
09:45but victims of Pastor Qibuloy from Ukraine,
09:49who in 2010-2012,
09:52flew to Davao to be a pastor of Pastor Qibuloy.
09:56Are you ready to sacrifice everything to God, to the Father, like a pastor?
10:03I leave my job, so I already sacrificed a lot.
10:06So what do you mean?
10:08Even your body, you can sacrifice.
10:10Little by little, he just turned to me,
10:12and he removed my clothes.
10:14I was very shocked.
10:16I was supposed to turn 18 already,
10:18and she told me,
10:20so you need to have *** with the pastor.
10:22Of course, I cried.
10:23I have to do that if I want to be a truly daughter of the Father.
10:28He sleeps with everyone.
10:30At one night, he can have not only one girl.
10:33He will call one, and then after that, another one.
10:36One time at night, he came to me, to my room, to have ***.
10:40And I was crying, I said that I don't want.
10:42And he was, he got mad at me.
10:44He said like, you're going to hell because of that.
10:47In the hope of being saved,
10:49Iona was still thinking of a reason.
10:53I was saying that I cannot go because I have my period,
10:56and she wouldn't believe me.
10:58A woman named Christina Angeles,
11:00who used to be a member of the Church,
11:03threatened Kibuloy,
11:05who was running a child sex ring in Hawaii.
11:09The pastor also abused the complainant when she was just a minor.
11:14In 2018, in a court in Hawaii, in America,
11:18Kibuloy was charged with sexual abuse
11:20by a former member of KOJC,
11:23who was based in America.
11:25Until 2022, Kibuloy was included
11:29in the Most Wanted List of the FBI of America.
11:33They filed different cases.
11:35One of them is human trafficking.
11:37We will have to look at and review
11:39our extradition treaties with other countries.
11:41Even now, Kibuloy is still free to live in the Philippines.
11:44And he can deny all charges against him.
11:48We have had enough hatred.
11:51We have had enough bitterness and disunity.
11:55Despite the issues he was involved in,
11:58some members of KOJC
12:01continue to support and support Kibuloy.
12:06Just like the siblings, Michelle and Faye,
12:09they are not real names.
12:11My grandparents were the first to convert to religion.
12:17They were the ones who sent me to school.
12:21I was fat.
12:23I was fat in the hospital, in school.
12:26In fact, Faye was a scholar of Pastor Kibuloy.
12:31I got a good education in the school of the pastor.
12:34We were provided with uniforms, our P.E.
12:37We were not taught how to be a pastor.
12:48We were not taught how to be a pastor.
12:53But we were taught how to be a pastor.
12:56But we were not taught how to be a pastor.
12:58You can call it a religious extremism.
13:01They will accept you, they will help you.
13:03You will have stability.
13:04They will give you their truth,
13:06and that is what you can believe and follow.
13:09Until it is inculcated in your mind,
13:12you will not question anything they say.
13:15He is one of the most powerful religious leaders.
13:18It should be emphasized that even if you have the freedom to believe,
13:23there are limits.
13:25For some full-time members of KOJC,
13:28their church has a strict rule.
13:31They are not allowed to wear short clothes.
13:34They are also not allowed to attend recreational activities
13:38such as watching movies,
13:40especially when they are with non-members of KOJC.
13:45I had a girlfriend who said that I was not allowed to do that.
13:49But that is not true.
13:51I already said goodbye to her.
13:53They did not allow me to do that.
13:55For those who do not follow their strict rules,
13:58the punishment is humiliation.
13:59The punishment is humiliation.
14:02When they put me in prison,
14:04we were 14 years old.
14:06They put my eyes in prison.
14:08They put my ears in prison.
14:11They put my mouth in prison.
14:14All of us.
14:165 hours of me in prison.
14:18I was only allowed to scream.
14:20Meanwhile, despite the Senate's accusations
14:24regarding his cases,
14:26Pastor Kibuloy
14:27did not back down.
14:29The authorities suspended the arrest warrant
14:32against Pastor Apollo Kibuloy
14:34and 5 other accused.
14:36In the past few months,
14:38the warrant of arrest and arrest order against him
14:41were issued one after the other.
14:43But Pastor Kibuloy became missing in action.
14:46That is why the DILG
14:48issued millions of pesos in damages
14:51to his accomplices
14:53as well as to his associates.
14:55The Court of Appeals also
14:58freezed his bank accounts
15:00and cars.
15:08In the K.O.J.C. compound,
15:14there is a tunnel
15:16that Pastor Kibuloy possibly hid.
15:19He has a basement or underground.
15:22There is no air-conditioner, no light,
15:23and it is very hot inside.
15:27The tension increased
15:29when the members of the K.O.J.C.
15:31found out
15:33that he created a human barricade.
15:38The Davao Regional Police
15:40raided the K.O.J.C. compound.
15:50A member of the K.O.J.C.
15:53was found dead
15:55after being shot in the heart.
16:01The operation became chaotic
16:03especially when hundreds of supporters
16:05of Kibuloy learned about it.
16:07Until this September 8,
16:09Pastor Kibuloy
16:11was handed over to the authorities.
16:14Our warranty service
16:16lasted for 16 days.
16:18He was cornered in a building.
16:20Our Regional Director
16:21said that he will not surrender.
16:23Within 24 hours,
16:25we will assault the building.
16:27That's when they were pressured.
16:29He surrendered.
16:31Note that the police has been there
16:33for the past 15 days
16:35but he was not seen.
16:37Was there an actual restraint?
16:39No.
16:41The accused were brought to Camp Krame.
16:43Pastor Apollo Kibuloy
16:45is hopeful
16:47since he already submitted
16:49to the custody of the law
16:51that he would be fast-tracked
16:53so that he would be able
16:55to obtain his liberty.
16:57He would be able to prove
16:59his innocence in court.
17:01Any message to their followers?
17:03He has two cases.
17:05In Pasig,
17:07we call it human trafficking,
17:09no bail.
17:11In Quezon City,
17:13it's exploitation
17:15or sexual molestation.
17:17In Quezon City,
17:19it's no bail.
17:21We owe it to their strong will
17:23to tell them the truth.
17:25The day is near
17:27when justice will be obtained
17:29or even a piece of justice
17:31for the victim survivors.
17:33He also accepted the consequences
17:35of what he was doing.
17:37The justice of God really prevailed.
17:39Since Kibuloy was arrested,
17:41five more victims
17:43of sexual abuse
17:45by the pastor have been arrested.
17:47Allegedly, sexually molested
17:49by Pastor Kibuloy
17:51until such time
17:53that they became legalized.
17:55Whatever they do,
17:57it's like their passes to heaven.
17:59Sir, why children?
18:01The only thing I can see
18:03is that the children are impure.
18:05That's why they say
18:07that they are still like that.
18:09Their womanhood is still intact
18:11because what binds them
18:13is the Spirit of God.
18:15The children are afraid.
18:17They are being threatened
18:18and the authorities are planning
18:20to rescue them.
18:22When I was lying down,
18:24Kibuloy came up to me
18:26and started to kiss my neck.
18:28I was shocked.
18:30Meanwhile, Amanda
18:32was arrested in 2019
18:34for trafficking,
18:36child abuse,
18:38sexual abuse,
18:40and forced labor complaints
18:42against Kibuloy.
18:44This past Friday,
18:46she joined the arraignment.
18:48For a long time,
18:50I was voicing out.
18:52I really went out
18:54and joined the arraignment.
18:59Kibuloy pleaded
19:01not guilty
19:03in all the cases
19:05against her.
19:07We tried to calm down
19:09Kibuloy's camp,
19:11but they didn't go ahead.
19:13But they issued
19:15an official statement.
19:16Don't allow yourself to be forced
19:18to do anything against your own will
19:20no matter what.
19:22Meanwhile,
19:24the question now
19:26in arresting Kibuloy
19:28is who will receive
19:30the 10 million Pesos?
19:32The civilian informant
19:34will receive the reward.
19:36But it will go through
19:38the National Headquarters.
19:40There is no participation
19:42from the police there.
19:43And the victims
19:45will not be able
19:47to escape
19:49God's Son
19:51being deported son of God
19:53the law here
19:55on earth.
20:13That's all for now.
20:15This has been a presentation
20:17of the U.S. Department of Justice.
20:19Thank you for your attention.
