Transcript
00:00 Two police officers were arrested for stopping vehicles on Commonwealth Avenue to stop Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:11 The Vice President was surprised that he was involved in the incident.
00:15 Witness, Ian Cruz.
00:17 In this video that was spread online yesterday, the QCPD's mobile car was blocked on the westbound lane of Commonwealth Avenue.
00:28 What's the reason?
00:30 Who is this?
00:32 Who?
00:36 VP.
00:37 He's just sick.
00:38 VP Sara?
00:40 So you blocked Commonwealth Avenue so that VP Sara could pass?
00:42 He just passed by.
00:44 He just crossed the street.
00:45 Wow.
00:46 He just crossed the street. He's just sick.
00:48 VP Sara crossed the street and you blocked Commonwealth Avenue?
00:50 The man who was talking to the police, did he say that he got information from the tourists?
00:56 VP Sara will pass so let's stop.
01:00 There's no information as to when the video was taken.
01:03 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 video.
01:12 The Vice President wrote to QCPD Director Brigadier General Redrico Maranan regarding the viral video.
01:19 The Vice President insisted that he never requested assistance from QCPD to stop the traffic on Commonwealth Avenue for his convoy.
01:28 He said that what was said in the video is not only confusing but it's really wrong.
01:33 Duterte is condemning any act that is against the daily life and welfare of the people.
01:41 QCPD should investigate the incident and punish those responsible for their actions and correct the wrong information and give the public the real reason for the road closure along with the VIP's identification.
01:56 He also asked for a public apology from the police regarding the video and from QCPD Director.
02:00 QCPD asked for an apology.
02:03 We ask for an apology for the involvement of OVP.
02:08 We would like to assure the public that it was not OVP's convoy.
02:12 It was Sara who passed through.
02:14 We also ask the motorists to be punished for the violation of the road closure.
02:21 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.
02:29 We tried to contact the two officers at Police Station 14 but they were not there.
02:34 But the station said in a statement that the incident was based on the confusion and lapse in judgment of the police who were in charge of the traffic back then.
02:43 Pantoliano overreacted when he stopped the traffic as a sign of courtesy and security because the wrong information was from the VIP.
02:54 But according to them, there was no engagement in the area of VP Sara Duterte.
02:58 QCPD is still investigating who the VIP is and who told the police that they will be assigned the VIP.
03:06 What is the courtesy of the officials in the area?
03:09 We do not 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.
03:22 Even the CAAP, when heads of state come, the President gives priority to the Macalan.
03:31 For GMA Integrated News, Ian Cruz is your witness.
