NewsTranscript
00:00 Vice President Sara Duterte asked to investigate a viral video where she was mentioned as the reason for the closure of Commonwealth Avenue.
00:08 She also denied that she went there, so the Quezon City Police acted.
00:13 Ian Cruz was arrested.
00:14 In this video that was posted online yesterday, the QCPD's mobile car was blocked in the westbound lane of Commonwealth Avenue.
00:24 What's the reason?
00:26 Who is this?
00:30 She's just a VIP.
00:31 Who?
00:32 She's a VIP.
00:34 She's just a VIP.
00:35 She's a VIP, Sara?
00:37 So you closed Commonwealth Avenue so that she could cross?
00:39 She just crossed.
00:42 Wow.
00:43 She just crossed.
00:45 She's a VIP, Sara, and you closed Commonwealth Avenue?
00:47 The man who was talking to the police said that he got information from the motorists.
00:52 She's a VIP, Sara, she's going to cross, so let's stop.
00:57 There's no information as to when the video was taken.
00:59 But the Office of the Vice President said in a statement yesterday that Vice President Sara Duterte had nothing to do with the incident in the leaked video.
01:09 The Vice President wrote to QCPD Director Brigadier General Redrico Maranan regarding the viral video.
01:16 The Vice President insisted that she never requested assistance from the QCPD to stop the traffic on Commonwealth Avenue for her convoy.
01:25 He said that the things said in the video are not only confusing, but are really wrong.
01:30 Duterte is condemning any act that is against the daily life and welfare of the people.
01:38 The QCPD should investigate the incident and punish those responsible for their actions.
01:44 And correct the wrong information and make the real reason for the road closure and the VIP's identity public.
01:53 She also asked for a public apology from the police in the video as a QCPD Director.
01:57 The QCPD asked for an apology.
02:00 We are asking for an apology for the involvement of the OVP.
02:05 We would like to assure the public that the VIP's convoy did not cross the road.
02:11 And we are also asking the motorists to stop the video.
02:18 The two police officers were relieved from their positions and explained in the video that they are Executive Master Surgeons Verdo Pantoliano and Ariel Barong.
02:26 We tried to contact the two officers at Police Station 14 but they were not there.
02:31 But the station said in a statement that the incident originated from the confusion and lapse in judgment of the police who were in charge of the traffic.
02:40 Pantoliano overreacted when he stopped the traffic as a sign of courtesy and security because the wrong information was from the VIP.
02:50 But according to them, there was no engagement in the area of VP Sara Duterte.
02:54 The QCPD is still investigating who the VIP is and who told the police that they will be responsible for the VIP.
03:03 What is the courtesy of the officers in the area?
03:06 We don't have a definitive rule here in MMDA but we are extending courtesy, especially to the President and the Vice President because there are security concerns.
03:18 Even the QAAP, when heads of state come, the President gives priority to the land.
03:27 During the time of President Noynoy Aquino, the honking was prohibited on the road under PD 96 of President Ferdinand Marcos.
03:35 Only the official vehicles of the FB, PNP, NBI, Fire Departments and Ambulansya can use the honking.
03:44 For GMA Integrated News, Ian Cruz was on the air 24 hours.
