00:00The Senate has upped the ante, issuing an arrest order against embattled Bamban Mayor

00:05Alice Guo, who for several hearings now has been snubbing the upper chamber probe on illegal

00:11pogos.

00:12With this development, even the legal counsel of the suspended local chief executive advised

00:17his client to face the music and appear before the Senate.

00:25As the Senate released its arrest order against embattled suspended Mayor Alice Guo, Senate

00:31President Francis Escudero made this assurance.

00:49For Senate President pro-temporary Gingoy Estrada, all government agencies bestowed with

00:54police powers should work together to find Guo.

00:58Senator Riza Monteveros meanwhile hit back at Guo after the latter's Facebook post.

01:22According to Guo's camp, the embattled mayor is still here in the country, but her lawyer

01:27Stephen David advised her to appear in the Senate.

01:57Meanwhile another cat was let out of the bag by Monteveros pertaining Michael Yang's

02:02alleged brother.
