00:00The former Bamban-Tarlac Mayor, Alice Guo, is facing a new complaint.
00:05She filed a tax evasion complaint.
00:07The Bureau of Internal Revenue, against Guo, has removed her role in the illegal pogo in Bamban.
00:13Salima Refran has the first news.
00:19One day after the ombudsman dismissed Alice Guo as the Mayor of Bamban-Tarlac,
00:25she filed a tax evasion complaint because of her role in the illegal pogo in Bamban-Tarlac.
00:32In the complaint filed by the BIR to the Department of Justice,
00:36Capital Gains Tax and Documentary Stamp Tax did not pay Guo
00:41when she sold shares in Baufu Land Development when the Mayor of Bamban-Tarlac ran away.
00:46It is clear that there is a tax evasion in this transaction.
00:50The value of the shares she sold is small.
00:54That's why this amount is around P500,000.
00:58According to the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission of Paok,
01:02Guo sold 2.5 million shares in 2021 for P1 per share.
01:08The shares sold by Guo and the Corporate Secretary of Baufu Land also passed the complaint.
01:14The cases are multidimensional.
01:17But definitely there is a narrative there that will have to come out in the end.
01:23So that's the job now of the law enforcement agencies to help us with the connections within
01:30so that the narrative can be completed.
01:32According to Guo's lawyer, they will answer all the complaints filed by the BIR.
01:38As for the dismissal of the ombudsman to Guo,
01:42his lawyer was saddened that the ombudsman did not approve of their argument.
01:47But they are already preparing a motion for reconsideration that they need to appeal to the Court of Appeals.
01:54This is the second criminal complaint against Guo.
01:57He is also facing a qualified human trafficking complaint here in the Department of Justice
02:02related to the raid on Zuniwan Technology in March this year.
02:06This is in addition to the Co-Warranto case and the cancellation of the birth certificate
02:10obtained by the Office of the Solicitor General and the material misrepresentation case in COMELEC.
02:17According to COMELEC Chairman George Garcia,
02:19the ombudsman's order is immediately executory,
02:22except if he can get a temporary restraining order from the Court of Appeals.
02:26So even if he can file a Certificate of Candidacy for the next election,
02:31COMELEC will cancel it.
02:33The dismissal of the ombudsman to Guo was close to a three-month suspension
02:37for the 12 officials of Bambad, including the Vice Mayor.
02:41The member of the Sangguniang Bayan is also in the same situation.
02:44That's why the municipal councilor, Eranio Timbang, will run first.
02:48He is a councilor of the Sangguniang Bayan.
02:51He is a councilor but he opposed us when we got the permit.
02:56And because of this, since he opposed, yes, he was absolved or acquitted by the ombudsman.
03:04We are saddened to know that this happened.
03:09But as they say, everything is God's plan.
03:15This is the first news in 5 words for JMA Integrated News.
03:21The House Committee on Appropriations subpoenaed the reports of the Commission on Audit,
03:26including the confidential funds of the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education,
03:31for the fiscal year 2022-2023, when Vice President Sara Duterte led the two offices.
03:38According to the Committee of the Camera, they want to know if the use of the CF of the two offices is correct.
03:45The first issue was the confidential funds after the 2022 report of the COA,
03:50where the OVP paid P125 million in the span of 11 days.
03:56The OVP also brought down P500 million in the CF in 2023, but last year, it did not continue.
04:04JMA Integrated News is trying to get a statement from the Vice President on the subpoena of the Camera.
04:10First, the Vice President said that there is no irregularity in the spending of P125 million in 2022.
04:16Last week, the Vice President mentioned an issue with the budget,
04:20which is one of the reasons why he resigned from the DepEd.
04:23VP Duterte tried to correct what he saw as wrong, but he did not receive support and did not see any changes.
