00:00The Commission on Elections will also conduct an investigation against suspended Mayor Alice Guo.

00:06The mayor's friend said it's possible that she didn't attend the next hearing of the Senate on Pogo.

00:12Sandra Aguinaldo reported.

00:17Her lawyer, Alice Guo, talked to her.

00:19But Attorney Stephen David said that she probably won't attend the hearing of the Senate on Wednesday.

00:26As for Pogo, the mayor is traumatized after several hearings.

00:31When I talked to her, she said that she can't do it because of the trauma she's experiencing.

00:37She has a lot of allegations against her.

00:41She's still shouting there. Her stress level is too high.

00:45Senators Rizal Tiveros and Sherwin Gatchalian said that if Guo won't attend, she can be contempted and arrested by the Senate.

00:56According to David, there are drugs that Guo is taking.

01:00However, she can't get a medical certificate.

01:04She has a lot of doctors that she consults.

01:06But it's sad to say that these doctors are immune.

01:09Because if they have an issue, they will call the Senate to explain.

01:14Most likely, she won't attend.

01:16Where is Guo?

01:18According to the Office of the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms,

01:21they were supposed to serve a subpoena to Guo.

01:24They found out from the people of his farm in Tarlac that the mayor hasn't been there for several weeks.

01:31In a letter dated July 4, it was said that the subpoena to the mayor, his siblings, and parents were not served at the farm.

01:38But they left a copy when Guo visited there.

01:42The people of Sergeant-at-Arms also went to the municipality of Banban to talk to Guo's personal assistant.

01:50But he refused to accept the subpoena.

01:53They also left a copy of the subpoena there.

01:56Guo's lawyer accepted the subpoena.

01:59But it was clear that Guo is just their client.

02:03According to Attorney David, they will wait for the cases to be filed in court against Guo.

02:09Senator Riza Ontiveros' reaction is that the mayor should first consider the safety of his first lie and deception to the Senate.

02:19It's not only Guo who is traumatized, but also the human trafficking victims,

02:24the Taiwanese and Filipinos who were forced to work in the Pogos Camp compound.

02:29Even a Filipino citizen is traumatized.

02:32There's a Chinese national who became the mayor of the Philippines.

02:36Ontiveros also said that it's important to talk about mental health,

02:40but Guo can't use it to escape responsibility, especially since he's a public servant.

02:47He insisted on going to the hearing because the truth will give him peace of mind.

02:54Cominec Chairman George Erwin Garcia ordered the Cominec Legal Department to form a fact-finding committee

03:01to investigate if Mayor Guo was right when he filed a Certificate of Candidacy for the 2022 elections.

03:09The legal department will also consult with the NBI, Office of the Solicitor General, and the Senate Committee.

03:15It is also possible to examine the documents containing Guo's fingerprints for possible filing of the case.

03:22Sandra Aguinaldo reporting for GMA Integrated News.

03:45.
