00:00Let's go!
00:06Join us in our journey to Saksi!
00:12Before we go to Saksi,
00:13more than Php 111 million worth of shabu
00:16is stored in a warehouse in Pasay City.
00:19According to PDEA,
00:20smugglers are involved in the Wax,
00:22which is behind the paintings.
00:24On September 26,
00:25they were told to receive information
00:27about a parcel with a drug advantage.
00:29They inspected it
00:30and obtained a sample of wax
00:32that was positive for the drug.
00:34The parcel came from Mexico
00:36and will be sent to Bulacan.
00:38The cargo was turned over to PDEA.
00:43One of the Chinese nationals
00:44who was involved in smuggling
00:46was arrested.
00:48Before he was caught,
00:49the family of the victim and the suspects
00:52paid a ransom of Php 3 million.
00:55Saksi, by Emil Sumangil,
00:57Exclusive!
01:00On October 5,
01:02the HPG Task Force Limbas
01:04spotted this luxury vehicle
01:06in a commercial area in Taguig.
01:08It was followed by the police
01:09and they were able to get time.
01:13They blocked it.
01:14Here, a Chinese national was arrested
01:16for kidnapping a Chinese woman
01:19who was a businessman.
01:20She was also caught with her .45 caliber gun.
01:24She was positively identified
01:26based on the picture
01:28in the description given to us
01:29by a kidnap victim.
01:32In the CCTV footage
01:33held by the PNP Anti-Kidnapping Group,
01:36the victim and two Chinese men
01:38were seen in a motel in Bulacan
01:40on September 13.
01:42According to the police,
01:43this video was taken
01:44by the suspects of the victim
01:46from the motel room
01:48after the ransom was sent
01:50by his son from China.
01:52According to our debriefing,
01:56we were able to get the suspects
01:58worth P3 million.
02:01The victim was in a black luxury vehicle
02:03to be taken to his home in Metro Manila.
02:07He posted it on the Facebook Marketplace
02:10for sale.
02:11The processor was in a hurry
02:13to sell or dispose the vehicle.
02:16He was offered P1.4
02:18for the market value of P1.7.
02:21The AKG immediately coordinated with HPG
02:24to conduct surveillance
02:26until the vehicle was found.
02:29The suspect asked him,
02:31Are you involved?
02:33No, I'm not.
02:34I can see it.
02:35The three Chinese men
02:36and four Filipinos
02:37who were involved in the kidnapping
02:38were interrogated.
02:39HPG in the impounding area
02:42took the luxury vehicle
02:43because of its questionable papers.
02:46For GMA Integrated News,
02:48I'm Emil Sumangil,
02:50Succeed!
02:53Arrested in Noveleta, Cavite,
02:55is a man who was involved in
02:57a multi-million peso cryptocurrency scam.
02:59His victims include
03:01some media personalities,
03:03police,
03:04and government officials.
03:06Succeed!
03:07is Jun Veneracion.
03:11You are under arrest
03:13in Estapa Prison.
03:15The man was unable to escape
03:17when he was arrested last night
03:18by PNP-CIDG
03:20in Noveleta, Cavite.
03:22He was involved in
03:23a multi-million peso cryptocurrency scam
03:25and was fined 500 to 600 million pesos
03:29from his victims.
03:31He also has knowledge
03:33about cryptocurrency of course
03:35because that is his expertise.
03:37His moniker is Crypto King.
03:41The suspect claims
03:43that he earned 4% to 5%
03:46from investing in cryptocurrency.
03:48But when he gets the money
03:50from his victims,
03:51the suspect becomes confused.
03:53For example, 10 million,
03:55he promises that he will return
03:582-folds or 3-folds.
04:00The victims of these personalities
04:03are the media,
04:05some media personalities.
04:07There were also police officers
04:09who were victims
04:11and government employees.
04:13The media tried
04:14to get hold of the suspect.
04:17Crypto King, sir.
04:21Sir?
04:24No comment, sir.
04:27According to PNP-CIDG,
04:29the suspect was arrested
04:31on September 23,
04:32in the case of Estafa.
04:34He was fined,
04:35but he was again involved
04:37in a cryptocurrency scam.
04:38PNP-CIDG is confident
04:40that the suspect was victimized.
04:42They appealed to the police
04:44to file a more serious case.
04:48Based on our data gathered
04:51and the evidence that we have,
04:54we hope that we can file another case
04:57for a large-scale estafa,
04:59non-bailable.
05:00For GMI Integrated News,
05:02your June Veneration,
05:04Saksi.
05:06Believing and listening to the Senate
05:08that China's possible government
05:10is the one who arranged
05:12for Dismissed Bamban Mayor
05:14Alice Guo to enter politics.
05:15Guo reiterated
05:16that she is not a spy of China.
05:18Comelec recommended
05:20filing a new case
05:22against her in court.
05:24Saksi, Simab Gonzales.
05:28His lawyer's statement
05:30that he is preparing
05:32to run for Mayor of Bambantarlac
05:34was rejected by
05:35Dismissed Mayor Alice Guo
05:36in the Senate hearing.
05:37She is not a candidate
05:38for the election of 2025.
05:40I will face the accusations first.
05:43I will clean myself first
05:46so that it will be fair
05:48to my constituents.
05:50Comelec recommended
05:52filing a new case
05:54against Guo in the Omnibus Election Code.
05:56Because of the material misrepresentation
05:58of the lie
06:00in her Certificate of Candidacy
06:02when Bamban Mayor ran in 2022.
06:05Guo's camp has not yet agreed
06:07on Comelec's recommendation.
06:09This will add to the various cases
06:11and complaints facing Guo
06:13such as human trafficking,
06:14money laundering, and others
06:16related to Pogo in Bambantarlac.
06:18In the Senate hearing earlier,
06:20from the Philippines,
06:21Guo drove an airplane
06:23to Malaysia.
06:24She denied what she said
06:25in the previous hearings
06:27that they used a boat
06:28to leave the country in July.
06:30She entered Malaysia via air.
06:32Via air.
06:33On July 18.
06:34So what Sheila Guo is saying
06:36is that she got on a boat
06:39is also totally false.
06:42If you conclude that...
06:43We might presume that, Your Honor.
06:44Why do you have
06:46a July 18 entry in KL?
06:53Regarding the fact that
06:55I invoke my right against
06:56self-incrimination.
06:57In the hearing,
06:59the Chinese spokesperson,
07:00Wang Fugui,
07:01who used to be a cellmate
07:03of the self-confessed Chinese spy,
07:05Xie Zhijiang,
07:06believed in the Al Jazeera documentary
07:08that Guo was also a Chinese spy.
07:11Wang also said that
07:12they were cellmates for one and a half years
07:15and became close friends.
07:17He had access to the documents
07:19he was holding.
07:20Wang also said that
07:21Guo was a Chinese spy,
07:23but he was not special.
07:24In addition,
07:25the Chinese government itself
07:27arranged Guo's entry into politics.
07:30Guo Huaping's election
07:32was arranged by the Chinese Communist Party.
07:35Xie Zhijiang's experience
07:37is similar.
07:38Wang also mentioned
07:39Xie's contact with the Chinese Communist Party,
07:42which is a Madong Li,
07:43who is also a possible handler of Guo.
07:45I don't have a handler.
07:47I'm not a spy.
07:48I don't know him.
07:49He probably needs media mileage now.
07:51Maybe he has other motives.
07:54According to the record of the Bureau of Immigration,
07:56Xie and Madong Li
07:58entered the country more than 20 times.
08:00Mr. Xie was imprisoned in Thailand
08:03for the same crimes,
08:05human trafficking, scamming.
08:07Madong Li is a partner of Mr. Xie
08:10in the Yatai Myanmar Company,
08:15which operates the Pogo Hub in Myanmar.
08:19Onte Vero helped
08:21the Department of Foreign Affairs
08:22to talk to Xie.
08:24I have persuasive information
08:26that the file of at least one young brother
08:30is with Xie.
08:32Conforming that young brother
08:35as a foreign agent.
08:36It seems that our entire government,
08:39not only us in the legislature,
08:41but also you in the executive,
08:42will get important information.
08:45For GMA Integrated News,
08:47Mahab Gonzalez is your witness.
08:58The number of candidates
09:00for the Senate from 2019
09:02is based on the data of Comelec.
09:04153 applied for the 2019 election
09:08and 176 for the 2022 election.
09:11For the 2025 election,
09:13184 are the total number
09:16of senatorial aspirants.
09:1857 of them
09:20reached the deadline of filing the COC
09:22as Pastor Apollo Kibuloy.
09:25Sandra Aguinaldo is the witness.
09:30Pastor Apollo Kibuloy will run for senator
09:33even though he is in prison
09:34for child abuse and human trafficking cases.
09:37Under the Certificate of Candidacy
09:39issued by his lawyer,
09:41Workers and Peasants Party or WPP
09:42is included as a party.
09:45I hope he will campaign.
09:47We will campaign for him.
09:49The people of the Philippines
09:50will campaign for him.
09:51Like other aspirants,
09:53his COC was accepted
09:55but there is no guarantee
09:56that his name will be included
09:57in the ballot.
09:58Considering that his COC is already here,
10:00I will beg him not to answer
10:02because the question will be raised
10:05to Comelec and Comelec has to decide about it.
10:08But on WPP,
10:09they approved Kibuloy's run
10:12under their party.
10:14According to the group's president,
10:16Atty. Sunny Matula,
10:17none of the three authorized signatures
10:20in their group
10:21passed the CONA
10:23or Certificate of Nomination and Acceptance
10:25of Kibuloy.
10:26The CONA is one of the requirements
10:28that Comelec is granted
10:30along with the Certificate of Candidacy.
10:33According to Kibuloy's camp,
10:35the WPP approved
10:36the legitimate acceptance
10:38of his COC under the party.
10:42According to Comelec,
10:43there is a time to resolve
10:45this issue by the commission.
10:47The candidature was also granted
10:49for Kiko Pangilinan to return to the Senate
10:52who was accompanied by his wife,
10:54Sharon Coneta.
10:55He will run under the Liberal Party.
10:58Atty. Vic Rodriguez
10:59will also run for the Senate.
11:01He was the campaign spokesperson
11:03and executive secretary
11:05of President Bongbong Marcos.
11:07But there was a meteo in the Cabinet of 2022
11:09just a few months after his appointment
11:12amidst the controversy
11:13about sugar importation.
11:16The COC also denied the TV host,
11:18Willie Rivillame.
11:20The candidature was also filed
11:22in the Senate
