00:00Ex-PNP Chief Benjamin Acorda Jr. and Senators Tony Yang and Wesley Goh showed their faces to the Senate.
00:07They did not directly object to it, but the CIDJ continued to insist on the information that the police have a former boss
00:14who might have helped Alice Goh to go abroad. June Veneracion was involved.
00:23Former PNP Chief Benjamin Acorda Jr. was mentioned in the Senate hearing earlier.
00:28Sen. Risa Contiveros showed her picture with Tony Yang and Alice Goh's brother Wesley Goh.
00:36When she received the statement, Acorda's only answer to a text message was that she loves the country and the PNP.
00:42What she did was what a Filipino should do as a police officer.
00:47The CIDJ did not directly object to it on September 17.
00:55An inter-report says that the PNP has a former boss who was paid to help Goh escape and it's in his payola.
01:03The officials of the PNP-CIDJ talked to Acorda yesterday.
01:06They were ordered to investigate what was mentioned in the Senate hearing.
01:10I asked him about the information that he told the Senate.
01:15He told me again and again that this is just a hearsay, purely a gossip. That's his exact word.
01:26Despite the clarification of Villanueva until the Senate hearing earlier,
01:30the PNP-CIDJ is still looking for evidence to find out if he helped Goh and who else.
01:38That's one point that should be clarified that this is just a statement of a person and it will not be the basis for our investigation to stop.
01:48But Villanueva's first statement had a big effect on the image of the PNP.
01:53That's why they are studying if he has a legal responsibility.
01:57If we see a violation of our law, we will file a case against him.
02:02For GMA Integrated News, I'm Jun Veneracion, for 24 Hours.
