PNP, dumistansya muna sa pagpapalutang kay Pastor Quiboloy

Transcript

00:00 The Philippine National Police decided not to inform the release of Pastor Apollo Quibuloy.

00:10 This is the release of the Senate subpoena to invite Quibuloy to the election.

00:16 This is the message of Benji Durango.

00:19 The Philippine National Police is still distancing from the release of Pastor Apollo Quibuloy,

00:25 who is the son of Jesus Christ. This is the release of the Senate subpoena to invite Quibuloy to the election.

00:33 The Philippine National Police said that if Quibuloy is still not released,

00:36 the Senate will have the authority to bring him to the hearing.

00:39 The Philippine National Police will not interfere for now because there is no official request from the Senate.

00:47 Since the subpoena power is exercised by the authority of the Senate, we will give it to them.

00:55 Under the Senate's ruling, if the person invited is only in Metro Manila,

00:59 the Senate Sergeant at Arms or his deputies will bring the subpoena.

01:03 If he is in the province, the police can ask for help to bring him.

01:07 But Quibuloy is still hiding because of the risk to his life and he said that the United States will hunt him.

01:14 Even if I show up, I cannot show you.

01:17 Quibuloy is facing 43 cases in the United States, some of which are related to sex trafficking,

01:23 fraud and coercion, sex trafficking of children, conspiracy and bulk cash smuggling.

01:29 He has no cases here in the Philippines, he wants to investigate the Senate.

01:33 The question is, will he be brought to justice?

01:35 I am being hurt in every way by false accusations, false allegations that they don't want to go to court.

01:46 And after that, they don't want to face the false accusers that they are doing to destroy my reputation.

02:00 For the PNP, they said to wait and see. Maybe they will suddenly give up.

02:05 But if nothing happens, they will just move when the Senate gives the order.

02:09 In case there is an official request from the Senate for the service of that subpoena,

02:16 then the PNP is ready to provide.

02:19 That is the same case also if there are other processes that the Congress is requesting, the PNP is assisting.

02:29 Kibuloy said that the Philippines is being forced to move to the United States to make it fall,

02:34 which is what the PNP is denying.

02:36 He is entitled to his opinion. We don't know where he gets information like that.

02:43 But on the part of the PNP, we categorically deny any knowledge of what he is saying.

02:50 The PNP will remain focused on our mandate.
