00:17 Arrested in Pasa is a man who claimed to be a lawyer.
00:21 His victim paid half a million pesos before he was arrested.
00:25 And that's the first news of Nika Wahe.
00:28 [Music]
00:31 With the help of the police, the client himself arrested his own lawyer in a coffee shop in Pasay City.
00:38 The client's acquaintance was very informed that his transaction was a fake lawyer.
00:45 We have a demand here in our area in Binangonan.
00:51 I asked my acquaintances, I have an acquaintance who is a referee.
01:00 Attorney Robert S. P. Garcia is the name of the suspect.
01:04 If we look at the lawyer's list on the Supreme Court website, the same name and roll number are mentioned.
01:10 But Robert P. Garcia is the real name of the suspect.
01:15 That name is not on the list of current lawyers in the country as of January 2024.
01:22 The victim paid half a million pesos to the suspect.
01:25 He's asking for a lot of money. We reached 541,000 pesos in fiscal.
01:32 His appearance fee is 60,000 pesos.
01:35 In December, he requested a second appearance fee of 120,000 pesos.
01:42 We paid half of that.
01:46 Garcia said that he should be charged with the preliminary investigation of the case he filed.
01:52 He said that he should be charged four times as a lawyer in fiscal.
01:57 But the victim refused to pay Garcia's Christmas gift.
02:01 The Christmas gift is worth 60,000 pesos.
02:06 I paid 30,000 pesos until it became 20,000 pesos, but I didn't give it.
02:11 I checked it with another lawyer and we reached a second opinion.
02:16 It was here that we learned that many documents were leaked by Garcia,
02:20 including the notary's documents and his ID.
02:24 The victim also found the real attorney Robert S. P. Garcia.
02:29 We don't know the process of filing the case.
02:33 So we just did what we could.
02:37 The payment of half of the second acceptance fee was used to corner Garcia.
02:43 Garcia admitted that he is not a lawyer, but he studied law so he knows the law.
02:50 I studied law but I didn't pass the bar exam.
02:54 He is a smart guy. He didn't introduce the victim to a lawyer, but only a consultant.
02:59 He also benefited from the payment of the victim.
03:03 He repaired my car. He also gave me a gift.
03:10 He's good at talking. He's good at dressing.
03:14 You would think he's a lawyer.
03:17 That's why he was able to believe our complaint.
03:21 We even swindled him.
03:23 This is the first news for GMA Integrated News.
03:29 Igan, you are the first in the news.
