00:02Magandang gabi po, Luzon, Visayas at Mindanao.
00:06Malaya at wala na sa kustodiyan ng Czech Republic,
00:10si dating Congressman Zaldi Ko ayon mismo sa Justice Acting Secretary na nagpunta doon.
00:16Palaisipan na naman kung nasaan mismo si Ko dahil ayon sa kalihim,
00:20hindi sinabi ng Czech authorities kung saan ito nagtungo at kung kailan ito nakalaya.
00:25Gayunpaman, tiniyak ng DOJ na nasa Schengen area pa si Ko.
00:28At mula pa rin sa Prague Czech Republic na Katutok Live, si Maris Umalis.
00:34Maris!
00:37Mel, Vicky, Emil, nahuli na pero nakalaya pa.
00:41Ganyan ang pag-amin ngayon ng High Level Coordinating Team
00:45na ipinadala ng Administrasyong Marcos dito sa Prague Czech Republic
00:49para sa naayusin ang pagpapabalik sa puganting dating kongresista na si Zaldi Ko sa Pilipinas.
01:00I have to share difficult news, mga kababayan.
01:03Czech authorities have informed us that Mr. Zaldi Ko is no longer in their custody.
01:09Ibinalita yan ni Acting Justice Secretary Frederick Vida
01:12matapos ang halos isang oras niyang pakikipagpulong sa Czech Minister of Justice,
01:17Deputy Minister of the Interior at Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs
01:21lunes ng hapon dito sa Prague.
01:23Pero kung kailan nakalaya si Ko, hindi na raw binanggit sa kanila ng Czech counterparts.
01:27What is his status right now? Is he free?
01:31The exact information, he is no longer within the territory of the Czech Republic.
01:38So he's free?
01:38He is not within the Czech Republic.
01:41So he is free?
01:43He is not detained.
01:45He is not detained, so he is free?
01:49Yes.
01:49Nang lumapag-anila si Navida rito nitong biyernes,
01:53ay nasa kustudiya pa ng Czech authorities si Ko,
01:56ayon sa kanilang intelligence sources noon.
01:59Hindi anya sinabi ng Czech authorities kung saan nag-exit si Ko.
02:02Pero apat na katabing bansa ang pwede niyang puntahan by land,
02:06ang Poland, Slovakia, Austria at Germany.
02:09During this trip, definitely he was traveling by land.
02:13We are also aware we got information as to the registry of the vehicle.
02:18Ang tinitiyak ngayon ng Justice Secretary ay nananatili si Ko sa tinatawag na Schengen area
02:24base sa anya intelligence sources.
02:26Pero hindi niya masabi kung saan sa dalawang putsyam na bansang kasama sa Schengen area.
02:31That information, what we can confirm is that he is within the Schengen area.
02:37That is the workable intel that we have.
02:39Why can't we confirm where exactly in the Schengen area is South Dakota?
02:44Because that information was not related to us.
02:47The Philippine government is not without resources.
02:52Diba?
02:54That's why we get all this particular information.
02:58Ang ipinakitang passport ni Ko ng maharang sa German border
03:01ay ang kanyang expired ng passport na naglalaman umano ng valid pang Schengen visa.
03:06The one which he was carrying, the information that we got,
03:11it's the one that expired September 11, 2022.
03:17That was the one he was in possession with when he was accosted by the authorities.
03:23The two other passports, one is the official passport, I believe, when he was congressman,
03:30and the other passport is the one cancelled by the Philippine courts.
03:35May leads naman daw sila pero hindi lang nila maaaring ibonyag dahil active operation ito.
03:40Pag pinag-usapan ba natin ngayon, sinabi ko sa inyo na nasakya po.
03:45Di alis na siya sakya po.
03:46Ayon kay Vida, alam na ni Pangulong Bombong Marcos na nakalaya si Ko.
03:50Malinawa niyang hindi nagkamali si Pangulong Marcos sa anunsyong nahuli ito.
03:54Ay hindi yung premature.
03:56Because when our president made that announcement,
04:02that was the facts available na narito siya sa Czech Republic.
04:07Gait ni Vida, hindi nagkulang ang ating law enforcers.
04:11Pero iba raw sana ang naging resulta kung may hawak na tayong red notice mula sa Interpol.
04:16Bago siya naharang di umano sa German border.
04:33Nobyembre pa nagsimula ang aplikasyon para sa isang red notice kay Ko.
04:36Pero may mga dokumentong dalang team dito sa Prague na kalalaki pa lang sa aplikasyon.
04:41We have already said it to the secretariat, France, Leon, France.
04:48And we expect that with that, those amount, voluminous talaga na documents which they need,
04:56we expect na they can eventually grant us.
05:01We are awaiting Interpol's evaluation.
05:05Once issued, the red notice would enable any member country to detain and return him through exhibition or deportation.
05:14Naharap si Ko sa mga kaso kaugnay ng bilyong-bilyong pisong anomalya sa mga flood control projects,
05:19bagay na kanyang itinatanggi.
05:21Ayon kay Vida, kampante siyang maibabalik pa rin ng Pilipinas si Ko para mapanagot sa kaso.
05:27Pero kung kailan, hindi raw niya masabi.
05:30Matas ang kopiasa. 99%.
05:32Because he leaves something to chance.
05:35Hindi naman binibilang yung nadadapaka eh.
05:39Ang mahalaga yung pagbangon at may natutunan tayo.
05:42Pero hindi ito ano, hindi ito, hindi ko tinuturin ito na ano, na ano, na delay lang tayo.
05:54Vicky, ayon kaya Sekretary Vida, ngayong April 30 siya nakatakdang dumating sa Maynila.
06:01Muli mang natakasan pangako ni Sekretary Vida, mapapaharap pa rin daw nila sa batas si Ko.
06:06At yan ang pinakasariwang balita mula pa rin dito sa Prague Czech Republic.
06:10Balik sa'yo, Vicky.
06:11Maraming salamat sa'yo, Mariz Umali.
06:15At isang paglilinaw ng Department of Foreign Affairs sa mga hawak na pasaporte ni dating Congressman Zaldi Ko.
06:22Sabi po ng DFA, ang dalawang passport ni Ko ay kinansela nila batay sa isang court order noong December 2025,
06:31isang regular passport at isang diplomatic passport.
06:35Agad daw nila itong nireport sa Interpol.
06:37Ang passport namang ginamit umano ni Ko pagtawid sa border ng Germany patungong Czech Republic ay nag-expire na noon
06:46pang September 2022.
06:48Hindi na ito kailangan pang kanselahin dahil hindi na ito maaring gamitin sa international travel.
