00:00A few days after it was reported that Alice Guo has left the country, two of her companions were arrested in Indonesia.
00:09Luisa Erispe is in the center of the news. Yes, Luisa.
00:13Angelique, it was announced today in the second hearing of the Quad Committee of the Camera that there is already a holding of the Indonesian authorities
00:23to those who were arrested by Mayor Alice Guo.
00:26According to the House Committee on Public Order and Safety Chair Rep. Dan Fernandez,
00:31this is Cassandra Lee Ong, who was also arrested by Raid Napogo, Lucky South 99 in Porak, Pampanga.
00:38It is noted that Ong's site is in contempt of the Quad Committee because it did not participate in the hearing despite the release of the show post order.
00:46Here is the statement of Rep. Dan Fernandez.
00:50The communication that was sent to us as well that Cassandra Lee Ong was already in the custody of the Bureau of Immigration of Indonesia.
01:03And as a matter of fact, our police attache and the PNP chief is in coordination with the Bureau of Immigration of Indonesia.
01:16In addition to Panayama, DILG Secretary Benver Abalos also confirmed that he is in the custody of the Bureau of Immigration of Indonesia.
01:25Not only one, but two people who were with Alice Guo, although she did not mention a name.
01:32It was said earlier that this is based on information she received from the Philippine National Police last night.
01:38According to Abalos, this is the result of their coordination with other countries.
01:44What is important, even in other countries, through our police attache, this is coordinated.
01:51It only shows the seriousness of the police.
01:57Even the Department of Justice confirmed that they received a report that Guo's two colleagues were arrested in Indonesia.
02:06When asked if this is Cassandra Ong and Sheila Guo, the former mayor's sister,
02:12DILG Secretary Sistine Remulia's answer is yes, that's true.
02:17Remulia also said that the arrest of the two is proof that the two have connections in Bambang and also in Pampanga.
02:26Which means that Bambang and Borac are closely related.
02:32I remembered that despite the denials of former Secretary Roque, it appears that they are really intimately related.
02:46Remulia explained that even though the two were arrested, their passport will not be cancelled.
02:54The former mayor, Alice Guo, is on her side.
02:58DILG Secretary Lupas Bersonin is on her side.
03:01They are still discussing how this will be processed.
03:04But Remulia insisted that there is still a way for the two to go home, including Guo.
03:12If the passports are cancelled immediately, then how can you make them travel back to the country?
03:18You will have to issue a travel document which will be an admission that they are Filipino citizens.
03:24It's something that's a little tricky.
03:28That's why we decided, to our best judgment, we just follow the law on the cancellation of passports.
03:36Because they are the passport holders where we have a suspicion that these were fraudulently obtained.
03:44Or obtained through fraudulent means.
03:48Then we have reason to make them go back.
03:52Angelique, for now, Anya will talk to Justice Secretary Tim Remulia at the Bureau of Immigration.
03:59How is the process? How can the two arrested, including Guo and Alice Guo, go home?
04:06Because it's a little complicated to cancel these passports.
04:10Later, we will bring you a new update. Thank you, Angelique.
04:15Yes, Louisa. Do these two have a red notice that's why they were arrested?
04:21And who was arrested? Was it Interpol or Indonesian authorities?
04:27Angelique, regarding what was asked earlier to Secretary Remulia,
04:31if it was because of the red notice or whatever notice was issued by the National Police or Interpol.
04:40But the DOJ said that the DFA notified Interpol that these two committed fraud as passport holders of Filipinas.
04:54That's why this is the way for them to be arrested.
04:58But the red notice was issued by the court when they already have a case.
05:05That's why this is one of the things that DOJ and Bureau of Immigration are discussing.
05:10How is the process? How can they go home?
05:14And the arrest and arrest of Guo's accomplices.
05:20Angelique.
05:21Okay. Thank you very much Louisa Erizpe.
