00:00Former Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque was again cited in contempt

00:06because he did not attend the hearing of the Quad Committee of the Camera.

00:10Chino Gaston was on the spot.

00:12He'll be terminated or until he's...

00:16Former Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque was again arrested by the House Sergeant at Arms

00:20after he was cited for contempt for the second time.

00:23This is because he did not attend the hearing of the House Quad Committee earlier

00:27and again for contempt for the documents that will explain his love for his property.

00:34In the first hearing, the committee prioritized the love of assets of Biancham Holdings and Trading of Roque.

00:41Since it was only P125,000 in 2014, it became P67.7 million in 2018.

00:49Roque explained that they were sold a lot in Paranaque

00:53that's why he was asked by the Camera of Evidence.

00:56He expressed his commitment to produce the documents.

01:00Reason why we issued the subpoena.

01:02I move, Mr. Chair, that we hold Harry Roque in contempt.

01:06Attorney Harry Roque in contempt for refusing to submit the documents.

01:10Remember, Roque was called to the hearing to ask about the allegations against him in Pogo sa Bansa.

01:17He was followed by Cassandra Lee Ong of Lucky South 99

01:21in a meeting in the court regarding the problem in the billing of Lucky South 99.

01:25The PAOCC also said that they saw a letter with Roque's name in a search in Pogo Hub in Porac.

01:33Roque explained that he was never a lawyer of any illegal Pogo or Lucky South 99.

01:40He said that he accompanied Ong because he thought Lucky South was a victim of Estafa.

01:45He said that he accompanied Ong because he wanted the whirlwinds connected to Lucky South

01:50to lead the energy projects that he is supporting.

01:54Roque did not hesitate in presenting his contempt against him.

01:58It was time for him to return to the camera

02:00because he was questioning the House Squad Committee.

02:04If they say, I received money from Pogo, they will present evidence.

02:09I will file the corresponding remedy before the Supreme Court.

02:13If they arrest me, I will show them my freedom in our judicature.

02:18While in the hearing of the squad committee,

02:20former Davao Penal Colony Warden, Corrections Senior Superintendent Gerardo Padilla,

02:25believed that he talked to Omano,

02:28former President Rodrigo Duterte, after three Chinese drug lords were killed by other inmates.

02:34When we went to the investigation section,

02:38my cell phone rang and I answered it.

02:43According to the voice, it was the former President Rodrigo Duterte

02:52who called me and congratulated the Superintendent Padilla.

02:56Job well done.

02:57But he did a great job.

03:00Former PCSO General Manager, Roina Garma,

03:05who was a member of the PNP-CIDG of Davao City.

03:09Padilla said in the last hearing that Garma told him

03:13not to get involved in the operation against the three Chinese inmates.

03:17When I talked to him on the cell phone of the inmate,

03:25Chief Garma told me that there are people there who will do it.

03:30This is what you were accused of, right?

03:33Yes, Your Honor.

03:34So allow me to continue.

03:36Don't question.

03:38Your family might get involved.

03:39So you deny making this call?

03:41Yes, Your Honor.

03:42Garma denied that he was close and that former President Rodrigo Duterte

03:46forced him to do it.

03:47That's why he was appointed as the General Manager of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office.

03:51Garma was cried when he was cited in contempt

03:54for avoiding answering the questions of the committee.

03:57He will be imprisoned in the House Detention Center

04:00until the hearing of the quadcom or until he tells the truth

04:05that was blamed by the members of the committee.

04:08For GMA Integrated News, Chino Gaston, Akatuto, 24 Hours.
