00:00We will be with you, in Saksi!
00:14In just 11 seconds, 10 million Pesos worth of goods were smuggled to a store in Cebu City.
00:22And the nearby store was attacked, where 4 million Pesos worth of goods were stolen.
00:29Saksi, this is Allan Domingo of GMA Regional TV.
00:36According to CCTV, 3 to 4 armed men entered a jewelry store in Barangay Ermita in Cebu City around 11 o'clock this morning.
00:46The suspects quickly forgot the display of the goods.
00:50According to the investigation, 5 suspects stole goods worth 10 million Pesos in just 11 seconds,
01:00knowing that there was no security guard at the store.
01:04There were 5 of them.
01:11One of them was locked out.
01:13The other one was arrested by the police.
01:17The other one was beaten up.
01:22When the security guard saw me, he called me and told me to be careful.
01:33When the security guard saw me, he told me to be careful.
01:41The nearby jewelry store was also attacked, where 4 million Pesos worth of goods were stolen.
01:50No CCTV footage was released.
01:53According to the establishment, it was led by the media.
01:57Unlike the nearby store, which had a security guard,
02:00the store did not have a fight with the armed suspects.
02:04It was around 11 o'clock.
02:06When they caught me, I saw 5 or 6 people.
02:10The police were also there, but no one was involved in the crime.
02:16Based on the evidence, the identity of one of the suspects is now clear.
02:22There was a robbery hold-up.
02:25There were two people who broke in.
02:28There were two lockouts and two people who broke in.
02:32Initially, we only knew one of them.
02:36We were still waiting for the operation.
02:38Cebu City Acting Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia ordered the police
02:42to open the lock of the robbery case within 48 hours.
02:47For GMA Integrated News, I am Allan Domingo of GMA Regional TV, your witness.
02:56He was shot with a gun and forced to send money.
03:00He was arrested by a Vietnamese businessman by 4 Chinese nationals who approached him.
03:06The suspects said they were co-workers.
03:10Our witness is John Consulta.
03:17The Chinese nationals were shocked by the raid of SWAT and Paranaque Police
03:21on the 11th floor of a condo in Paranaque City.
03:24One of the suspects, who was a member of a kidnapper ransom group, managed to escape.
03:34According to the NCRPO, which is against the basement parking of condos,
03:37three of his co-workers were arrested.
03:39The three guns, a silencer, and other party drugs were confiscated from the suspects.
03:44Based on the investigation, one of the suspects pretended to be a client
03:48and contacted the victim, a Vietnamese businessman with a money exchange business.
03:52The Vietnamese was completely shocked and forced to access the digital wallet.
03:56During the time she stayed there in the suspect's residence,
04:01they have been abused her, put a gun on her, and also knife on her body to force her to send the money.
04:11The Vietnamese was given 5 rounds of suspects, money, and money
04:14which was given to his relatives.
04:16According to the NCRPO, the suspects are members of a syndicate
04:20that sells mussels to foreign companies in order to bribe them.
04:25They were able to steal jewelry, withdraw money, and transfer about 2 million, 20 million pesos.
04:35Their motive here is to attack, particularly they are preying on POGO officials or POGO employees
04:44or particularly foreign nationals, Vietnamese, Cambodian, or even Chinese nationals.
04:50Another group of suspects tried to escape and ask for help.
04:54According to the suspects, they have been living in the country for 3 years and working as POGO workers.
05:00What's your work?
05:02POGO
05:04They refused to give them the guns obtained during the operation.
05:07Do you have a test gun?
05:09No, no, no. I don't have.
05:11There are 4 cases of rape and kidnapping among suspects in Southern Metro Manila.
05:15According to the NCRPO, one of the arrested suspects was wanted in China
05:20for rape, murder, kidnapping, human trafficking, and extortion.
05:24The suspect and other members of their group are still being investigated.
05:29For GMA Integrated News, I'm your host, John Consulta.
05:3512 Chinese nationals were arrested for participating in a love scam
05:39and their Chinese partner was raped, molested, and forced to listen to lies.
05:45Witnesses are Chino Gaston.
05:5012 Chinese nationals were arrested for participating in a love scam
05:54during the NBI Special Task Force on August 6.
05:57They are facing a violation of the Cybercrime Prevention Act.
06:00They were said to be raped, molested, tortured, and forced to listen to lies online.
06:05The Chinese informant of the NBI
06:07is accused of being in love with the victim's scammer and will be fined.
06:12He was raped, he was shot, and he was electrocuted.
06:15After that, he was fined P500,000 in exchange for his liberty.
06:20He only paid P300,000 and after that, he was released.
06:25He was threatened that if he complained to the police, he would be killed.
06:30According to the PNP, more than 21,000 cases of cybercrime were recorded in 2023.
06:36More than 8,000 from January to July 4 of this year.
06:40But according to the PNP, the incidents of cybercrime are decreasing.
06:44The impact of these initiatives is evident in the reduction of overall crime volume
06:49by 14,666 from July 2023 to June 2024.
06:56Significant decreases in rape, carnapping, robbery,
07:01along with a 21.09% reduction in cybercrime incidents
07:06highlight the effectiveness of our upgraded capabilities and efforts.
07:11For the GMA Integrated News, who is your witness?
07:16Vice President Sara Duterte commented on the Octa Research survey
07:20where the number of Filipinos who claim to be pro-Duterte decreased.
07:25One of the reasons why she became a member of the Cabinet is also revealed.
07:30She has a connection with the budget.
07:32Witness, Marisol Abdurrama.
07:37Just now, the Vice President held a phone call
07:40after formally turning over the leadership of the DepEd.
07:44The reasons for her becoming a member of the Cabinet.
07:47She said she can't do it alone.
07:49The list of reasons is really long.
07:53There are different categories.
07:55There's personal, just the two of us.
07:57There's DepEd.
07:59There's budget.
08:02There's also community.
08:04So, the list is a bit long.
08:09And right now, I'm not ready to sit down and discuss it one by one.
08:15But I will tell you,
08:17someday, I don't know when that day and time will come.
08:23But she shared one of the reasons why she has a connection with the budget of the government.
08:28But if you just read the list and trace where the money goes,
08:34you will see that the handling of the money and budget of the government is not good.
08:43I tried to correct what I saw wrong.
08:49But of course, I didn't get any support.
08:53I didn't see any changes.
08:55That's why I said that it won't be repeated in my budget for 2025.
09:01I can't take responsibility for the Department of Education budget
09:06and just repeat what we did before.
09:08How is your relationship with BBM, ma'am?
09:12Oh, we haven't seen each other and we haven't talked to President Marcos.
09:17So, I don't have a description of our relationship with President Marcos.
09:22We haven't talked to each other.
09:24Now that she is no longer in power of administration,
09:26it seems that the Vice President is talking more freely.
09:29Just yesterday, her words came out against the government.
09:33For the Vice President,
09:35throw stones at the sky, get hit, don't get angry.
09:38Whoever you see reacting publicly and privately to what I'm saying,
09:44those are the people who are affected by what I said in my statements yesterday.
09:52Those who are not fit for the service, not fit for their job,
09:59and not fit for serving the country.
10:02My frustration as a Vice President and as a Filipino
10:08in what is happening or what we hear from our government.
10:13I said earlier that I am not moving for the administration,
10:19I am not moving for the opposition, not for politics, but for the country.
10:24VP Sara was surprised by the Octa Research survey
10:28where the number of Filipinos who claim to be pro-Duterte went down.
10:32It's surprising because I just saw a survey
10:37where the question is, are you pro-Marcos or pro-Duterte?
10:43You really spent money,
10:46people will ask if you are pro-Marcos or pro-Duterte.
10:52Maybe it should be put there, are you pro-Philippines?
10:57I'm sure all of that will be transferred to pro-Philippines.
11:01If you read it right away, the motive there is perpetuation in power.
11:06All of the threats to your power will be destroyed.
11:13It's very obvious.
11:16To all of the things you hear, see, and do,
11:20the motive there is, I don't want this to fall on me forever.
11:26That's why I will destroy you all.
11:28I don't care if what I destroy is true or not,
11:34as long as you are destroyed.
11:36That's the motive there.
11:38It's all about politics.
11:39Everything is all about politics and power.
11:43We also asked Bice how his security is now.
11:47Because the surveillance, the casings,
11:51that's how the PNP harasses.
11:55That's the mode of the PNP when they want to harass people.
12:03So it depends on you if you will notice,
12:06if you will retaliate, or what you will do.
12:08So now, what we are doing,
12:10we are just recording everything they are doing.
12:14We got the facts, then we put it in a file.
12:18Do I feel threatened?
12:20Yes.
12:21This is not the first time that we had a problem with politics as a family.
12:30For GMA Integrated News, Marisol Abduraman is your witness.
12:37We are still trying to get an invitation from the Vice President.
12:43And new witnesses,
12:45a fire broke out in Balut, Tondo, Manila tonight.
12:48And live witness, Jamie Santos.
12:52Jamie?
12:54The second floor of the burning house here in Balut, Tondo, is still covered with thick smoke.
13:06The Bureau of Fire Protection and Fire Volunteers helped to reduce the fire that broke out in Balut, Tondo, Manila.
13:16At 8.01 p.m., the BFP raised the first alarm to fire that broke out in a warehouse.
13:23A few minutes later, it was raised to the second alarm.
13:28The BFP and fire volunteers who entered the house were wearing breathing apparatus.
13:35According to a fire volunteer who came from inside the house,
13:38there was almost zero visibility inside the burning building because of the thick smoke.
13:43He was allowed to sit on the side of the building.
13:47Although it was difficult to enter the building,
13:49the firefighters were forced to ventilate the area so that the fire could be extinguished.
13:55Some of the things they saw inside the house were some electric tools.
13:59The firefighters are continuously extinguishing the fire and are aware of its origin.
14:04And this is the latest from Manila.
14:07For GMA Integrated News, Jamie Santos is your witness.
14:13Dispatchers of taxis at IA Terminal 1 were arrested on charges of robbery.
14:32The complainants are a group of taxi drivers who are being arrested by CIDG.
14:37They are asking for 100 pesos for each taxi driver
14:44so that they can ride the passengers,
14:46especially those who are traveling from Manila to nearby provinces or even further.
14:54According to PNP-CIDG, they are already negotiating with the authorities of MIAP.
14:58The initial investigation shows that the arrestor is a third-party contractor who refused to give the money.
15:04He is facing a complaint of robbery extortion.
15:06GMA Integrated News is still collecting information about the MIAP.
15:11The National Kidney and Transplant Institute's gym was made into a leptospirosis ward.
15:17For now, 48 leptospirosis patients are confined in the NKTI.
15:23There are 10 more patients waiting in the emergency room who cannot be admitted because there are no more nurses and doctors.
15:29But the NKTI said that this is common in hospitals after the strong typhoon.
15:34Cross Domestic Product of the Philippines was affected in the second quarter of 2024.
15:396.3 percent.
15:41The gross income of products and services in the country from April to June is faster than the first quarter.
15:48The infrastructure of the government and information and communication is also affected.
15:54This is the fastest wave in the last five quarters.
15:57Almost 6.4 percent in the first quarter of 2023.
