00:00The House Quad Committee continued the hearing until the issue of the illegal operation of Pogo in the country.
00:08This is the update from Mela Lasmoras of PTV in Balitang Pambansa. Mela?
00:16Princess, the House Quad Committee continued their hearing at 10 a.m. this morning.
00:22For this day, their first hearing is about Pogo and illegal drugs.
00:28According to the Quad Committee Chair Robert Ace Barber,
00:31their target is to clarify the connection of Pogo and illegal drugs case in the country.
00:36That's why they invited personalities who can provide important information on this issue.
00:41One of the resource persons is the former owner of Customs Fixter and convicted C.M. Martz Aguba,
00:48who was charged with 6.4 billion pesos bribery in 2017.
00:54Police Colonel Hector Grijaldo did not attend the hearing,
00:57but he told some of the Quad Com leaders that they forced him to sign the drug reward system.
01:05His co-chairs Dan Fernandez and Benvenido Abante Jr. were invited.
01:10Because of Grijaldo's continued refusal to attend the hearing,
01:13the Health Resource Committee ordered the House Physician and C.M.P. Physicians
01:19to examine his condition.
01:22As for the continuation of the hearing,
01:24we are hoping that personal guards will arrive here later.
01:28That is the latest, princess.
01:31Thank you very much Melan Esmora.
